Kennedy comes off rediculously forced as a face... from his promo last night to the 'begging for a face pop' run-in on Burchill. It feels so planned and artificial. Kennedy's attitude and mannerisms reek of the smartass heel. Kennedy is no Steve Austin... he can't switch back and forth between heel and face and make it look natural without tweaking his overall character. Besides that, what reason did WWE give the audience to cheer Kennedy in the first place? One day he decided to challenge a heel which led to that heel's suspension? Pretty weak, tbh. I don't see Kennedy getting very far in the situation he's in. I pray they don't waste Burchill on him because face Kennedy looks to be a flop either way.

I feel the opposite. I thought heel Kennedy blew, for the same reasons you think face Kennedy blows.

I think he's actually cooler now. He's still more of a tweener to me and I like that. This Burchill fued is surprisingly good. It's simple and good. The way their storylines should have been all along.

tbh, I think they are booking Kennedy perfectly since his face turn. Kennedy gets a pop everytime his music hits. I like that you can't tell if he is a face/heel with his attitude, thats why I like his face turn alot.

It should be
Face Kennedy Blows
Me Away!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Isn't he awesome.
I have been enjoying it. Although I enjoyed heel kennedy more. Hopefully he gets back in people's faces and becomes more like Austin as in whooping ass and taking names, defies authority, son of a B*tch kinda guy. His promo style would be better with a gimmick like that.

Can I ask a serious question without starting a flame war?
What the hell is the appeal of this guy? He's annoying and his promos and matches are adequate at best. I've never been able to understand the interest in him.

What I want to know is, why do you have Paul Birchill in your sig, but you have the lyrics to Randy's theme song?

I've never been able to understand the interest in him. I don't know tbh. I always enjoyed him in OVW and he had a really fun character in OVW. In WWE I love the bad ass gimmick (ala Austin) and I see that in Kennedy. His promo's are great, although on Raw they seem forced. They were much better on SD. He isn't as bad as people say he is in the ring as well. |

QFT. Though he looked far more natural heel, he's still managed to maintain his overratedness and slightly below average mic and in-ring skills. |

I enjoyed him as a heel because he was entertaining but now he's just bland and boring.

QFI (Quoted for idiocy) While I respect your opinion (even though I shouldnt) you have no logical excuse for saying that. Even when Mr. Kennedy started heelin' on Smackdown, fans liked chanting the name with him. |

They've basically tried to mold him into the new Steve Austin, except he has none of Austin's charisma or talent.

I think Kennedy blows as a heel and a face, honestly.
He's not a strong enough heel because all he ever did that made him a heel was cut heel promo's. He never did anything to make him really "hated".
Now that he's a face, he just cuts the same promo's he did as a heel except on heel wrestlers, so I guess that makes him a face?
Also, his matches are really boring and his finishing move is terrible.
I do not enjoy him at all.
