“That Motherf**ker” – Mr. Anderson Talks Real-Life Heat With Ex-WWE Star

Ken Anderson recently revealed some real-life tension between himself and a WWE superstar he worked with.

Ken Anderson, known in his time with the WWE as Mr. Kennedy, was a gifted wrestler both in terms of his skills to entertain on the mic as well as to perform in the ring.

Fans of WWE in the 2000s will immediately recall the Mr. Kennedy character, whose promo segments on the SmackDown brand would begin with a mic descending straight into his hands by a wire, and he would verbally rip apart whoever he was feuding with.

Anderson was slated for a major push, but it was eventually stalled due to injuries and backstage problems, effectively ending his WWE career. Anderson later wrestled in Total Non-Stop Action (TNA).

Ken Anderson Explains Real-Life Heat With Paul London in WWE

Ken is known to have had heat with multiple superstars during the period he was supposed to get his big push. One such wrestler was Paul London

Speaking to Renee Dupree on his podcast, Anderson recalled the time he was dangerously hurt by London in a 10-man tag match, where the plan was for London to simply give a flipper to him to pop off the apron on the outside. Instead, London leg-pressed him hard off the apron, due to which he sustained a severe injury to his shoulder after hitting the guardrail.

He was really angry about it and even asked London backstage if he owed him any money, trying to understand the intense attack he’d faced.

We get to the back, and I was like, do I owe you money or something like that? Are you f*****g pissed at me? Like what? What’s going on? And he was like, oh, no, I’m sorry.

A couple of years later, Anderson got to know from someone that London had taken his name when asked about the stiffest wrestler he’d ever worked with.

The guy was like, who is the stiffest person you’ve ever worked with? Ken Anderson.

And it was like before the guy even had hands down Ken Anderson. And I was like, f**king me. Wow.Me. Right.And I’m thinking..this mother**cker, you guys, and here’s the thing, at the time, I couldn’t like the way that I was being used in the the relationship that I had with the boss. I would have f**king buried him. I never did.

I never said anything. Anytime anybody would ask me about it, like, you know, quietly told like my friends and stuff, the guys I was rolling with, like that motherf**ker jumped, you know, dropped me in the 17th row. But whatever, it’s wrestling.
