Ken Anderson Talks About WWE Release

Ken Anderson was released last year after a ten man tag match between wrestlers in Nuggets and Lakers jerseys. There was a lot of talk that the reason for his sudden release was for dropping Orton very stiff on the mat. It was pushed even further when Anderson posted a video of him proving to have no wrist injury at all (excuse used for release). He has finally been adressed and the following was said:

Question: Can you clear up one misconception because there was a lot of talk about when you left WWE and what exactly happened to make the company decide to give you your release. There was talk about a match with Randy Orton where afterwards he chewed you out. Can you explain what exactly happened?

Ken Anderson: First of all, I did not get injured in that last match. I know that a lot of people were saying that I had broken my wrist or something like that. I was holding my wrist because I had just got the snot pounded out of me for about ten minutes by five of the top guys in the company. I was just selling. Actually, my physical therapist called me the next day and she said 'did you re-injure your shoulder?' I said no and she was like you were holding your wrist and that's an indicator I guess for those people in that profession. That's something that they look for, for recurring shoulder injury is holding the wrist to immobilize the shoulder. He (Orton) told me to give him a belly-to-back suplex and I did and I thought everything was fine. I got to the back and he was holding his neck, saying that I dropped him on his head. He went to the back and lectured me about how I need to be safe and all this other stuff. He got three huge bags of ice – one on his neck, one on his left shoulder, one on his right shoulder. He got them all saran wrapped up, put his shirt back on and we walked to the locker room and he chewed me out the whole way there – calmly and quietly – but he told me that you need to be careful, blah blah blah. I felt bad about it because I didn't know. I hadn't seen the tape so I thought I really dropped him on his head. Then I went home and saw the tape and saw that he landed flat. If you slow the video tape down, his neck never comes into contact with the mat. So, I'll let you...you watch the tape and you let me know what you think. He landed flat as flat can be and then he went and complained to Vince (McMahon) and then (John) Cena went and complained to Vince and said that they didn't want to work with me anymore because I was dangerous and that is what ended up being the final straw. I wouldn't say that's what got me fired because there were so many other things before that. It was like they were looking for a reason to get rid of me.

   As I was reading this I felt pressure in my intestines. It hurt, and I remember wincing as the pressure built. Suddenly I let off the wettest fart of my life, it lasted at least 6 seconds. I ran to the bathroom to check if I needed to change my boxers, then I saw something that took my breath away. Somehow the feces was farted into my boxers in the perfect image of John Cena. I figured I was just projecting the face onto the feces, but suddenly the image winked at me. The brown semi-solid began multiplying, and soon I was staring at a two-foot tall, brown, reeking John Cena. I was horrified, but he just smiled and said "in the attitude era, Vince longed for the age of Hogan. So he traveled the world looking for a sorcerer who would create a new Hulk Hogan, a new hero to usher in a new PG age. He finally found such a sorcerer, but this sorcerer derived his powers from human waste. The sorcerer cast a spell so that every 9623rd poop would gain sentience and become the new John Cena. I am one such poop. After every show the current Cena melts and flows down a drain, then a new turd takes his place. Congratulations, sir, you have pooped a future world champion." Then the mini Cena kicked me in the balls, ran out of my bathroom and into the street, I never saw him again.

   So apparently, its Cena's fault Kennedy is not with WWE anymore. Guess what Cena; it's not Kennedy's fault you tear your shoulder when you tried to do a hip toss for the first time in your life....a move that rookies and amateurs can do. This simply proves that John Cena cannot do anything good with his life or anybody else's...except giving Vince blowjobs

    Wish Anderson would go to ROH, because TNA is descending and so is WWE and ROH just keeps building. Honestly, it's one of the best if not the best wrestling promotions today and they need to hit TV, seriously

    @ comment #13. ROH has had a TV contract, twice. Currently airs on HDNet I believe.

    Everyone is bashing Cena but did no one else see Orton's name in that report or was it just me? If your going to be pissed of with Cena then be pissed of with Orton also.
