Kennedy or MVP? Now, if you would have asked me this a few months ago I would have said MVP would be bigger then Kennedy. MVP was being booked well, he was good mic skills, is decent in the ring, has a good gimmick and has had good matches with Mysterio, Hardy, and Finlay and Benoit.
Now Kennedy was being booked poorly, but I think that was his fault. He was just being jobbed out but since he returned he came back a face and has been getting huge reactions from the crowd every time now. Kennedy is slowly being pushed, first interupting Regal, then main eventing Raw with Triple H, now squashing people like Snitsky. I see him taking the IC title for a few months then winning the Royal Rumble and eventually winning the title at WM25.
In say, 5 years from now. Who do you think will be the bigger star, the guy that carry's the company (ala Triple H, Cena, Tista), and the guy who will be most remembered.

What do people honestly see in Kennedy? All I see is another average wrestler who screams his name really loud.

I'd prefer Kennedy to become big. MVP just doesn't really do anything for me. He's got the attitude, but i'm still kinda "meh" about his matches.

This is not a who you like and dislike. I can't stand MVP but obviously the guy will be a huge main event player for the WWE. If you guys don't think Kennedy or MVP will be main event stars then your idiots, tbh.

What did anyone see in Austin? Rock was a good wrestler. He worked really well with his opponents and added more than just a few basic moves to his moveset. Austin was the same way, and also brought an aggression to the ring. He'd just have a straight up, no remorse, kick your ass attitude, and changed up his moveset to configure that. Kennedy, really hasn't shown me anything. He doesn't really have anything in his moveset that makes me really care all too much for him. His finisher really makes no impact whatsoever and I honestly don't see why people are so high on him. |

What did anyone see in Austin? Whatever they saw in them no doubt made them 2 of the biggest stars in the history of wrestling, if not the biggest. I'd say Kennedy will be the bigger star. I'm not that much of a fan of his, but there's just something about him..... He'll be big. |

What did anyone see in Austin? They saw guys that could tell an amazing story in the ring, guys who excelled on the microphone, guys that weren't too shabby in the ring, and guys who were able to carry the entire company on their shoulders, and have it be extremely successful. MVP, on the other hand, does not possess the first and last qualities. And Kennedy posseses none of the qualities. I don't see either one being anything major. |

Both men should be stars in a few years, of course it might not happen, we can not control what these two men do in their lifes that will affect their jobs. I am sure everyone was expecting Jeff Hardy to be a star recently, that sort of foiled when he once again got suspended for being a dope head. If nothing like that happens, I can see both men hitting it to the top, Kennedy before MVP.

I think MVP will be the bigger star of the two.
He's already proven himself as someone who can go with main eventers, such as his matches with Batista, but he's also able to work a fantastic undercard feud with someone like Matt Hardy as well. He can cut a promo better than many guys with his level of expertise and has the ability to maintain a flashy, in-your-face persona despite wrestling with a slow, technical moveset (although he has his spurts inbetween).
Now, I'm not going to go off saying he'll be the next Rock or anyone else, but he should fit in nicely with SmackDown's main event talent for the next few years.
Kennedy, on the other hand, is a guy that I see just not working out with the company for whatever reason. They've tried pushing him in the past and it didn't pay off, but now he's turned face and still fans don't know what to think of it. I personally think Kennedy works better as the tweener/heel in a midcard feud fighting over the US or Intercontinental title. But, we'll see where this face turn takes him for the next couple of months but I'm not being optimistic. After all, when Triple H reacted to being paired with Kennedy for the first time two weeks ago, he mockingly referred to him as "Kennedy Kennedy", obviously not thinking too much of sharing the spotlight with him.
I can't say I disagree with Triple H, though, as Kennedy's face turn doesn't really warrant a whole lot of enthusiasm when there was no hype for it to begin with.

I think MVP will be the best to do.
Kennedy is very average to me, and doesnt seem to take my attention much. I think that shouting your name twice is one of those things that will wear off after a while. And when it does, i think he'll be fed to triple H and released.
If i was to be totally honest, if i had to predict the roster for 1013, Kennedy wouldn tbe on it. I think MVP would.
But thats just my opinion.

I like Kennedy a lot... But MVP is one of the main reasons I watch Smackdown. He's become so fluid in the ring and on the mic. I really can't wait to see him take a main event spot.

i think mvp will before kennedy as many have said already about mvp with his mic skills already being up there and can hold his against some of the bigger names on sd. Kennedy, i do like him and feel that he'll need that one match that'll make him like king of the ring and the wm13 match with bret sky rocketed austin.

When I think the future, I think MVP & Kennedy. I see both as main eventers tbh. It wouldn't suprsie me, If something like this happened.
- MVP vs Shawn Michaels, WWE Title at Wrestlemania 25.
- Chris Jericho vs Mr. Kennedy, World Title at Wrestlemania 25.

You say that about Kennedy because you dislike him. He excells on a microphone, he isn't too bad in the ring, and yes I can see him carrying the company much like Cena/Batista did. I am not in NO WAY saying he is the next Hogan, Rock, or Austin. More like the next Cena/Batista. Maybe even a bigger draw then Cena. |
