syxx2001 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2005 Kevin Kelly completely defined the word, "tangent," this past Wednesday during the Voice of Wrestling preview show with Chris Cash and Big Mike. Kelly will be one of four individuals, along with Dr. Tom Prichard, Bill Behrens, and new TNA booker, Terry Taylor, to participate in the "Weekly Insider" segment on the Voice of Wrestling. Each week, one "insider" will join Chris and Mike to give an insider's point of view on current hot-topics in the world of professional wrestling. Prichard, Behrens, Taylor, and Kevin Kelly will all be joining the debut edition of V-O-W tonight to introduce the segment. That means you'll have another chance to hear Kevin Kelly live tonight on the renewed Voice of Wrestling radio show, live from 6:00-9:00 EST! VISIT VOICEOFWRESTLING.COM TO LISTEN LIVE TONIGHT "Kevin Kelly Uncensored" starts now.... Chris Cash started the conversation with a general question, How important are mic skills? Big Mike (new co-host) mentioned the ratings of the past Raw (a 3.6 with hours of 3.3 and 3.8) as an indication of the importantance of mic skills. He said when it came to talking, Lita left a lot to be desired. Kevin agreed claiming she only had one skill - "her ability to pleasure men away from the ring". Kevin Kelly Uncensored 1: "Lita stinks, she has no talent, and she has no ability at all." Chris Benoit was mentioned in regards to his skill on the microphone, or lack there of, and Chris Cash asked Kevin whether this was the reason he was being held back in the WWE. After distinguishing the difference between "being held back" and "being limited", Kelly explained Chris Benoit's situation, according to him. "Chris Benoit is never going to be The Rock, he can't say the things that The Rock says, but he can say Chris Benoit things in a very strong, very powerful fashion". That's not the problem, according to Kevin Kelly. He believes Benoit has an artificial ceiling holding him back and mic skills have no bearing on the reason at all. Kevin Kelly Uncensored 2: "Triple H is going to make sure no one gets over more than him." This led to Kevin Kelly disecting how Hunter has hindered those trying to make it up in the WWE. Being a big conspiracy theorist, Kevin stongly believes the WWE has intentionally put characters in bad lights on common ground, in an effort to make Triple H look the best. "I was right there when Vince Russo for months was trying to do something with D'Lo Brown and it involved Triple H and the bottom line was Triple H said 'F*** D'Lo Brown, I don't care about him'". Kevin continues, "This was before Triple H was anybody. This was when he was still up Shawn's (Shawn Michaels) rear-end". Kevin Kelly Uncensored 3: "If you don't have the right political clout in that company, it's going to come back to haunt you." This led to major discussion about Vince McMahon and his success. Kevin Kelly believes the reason McMahon is as weathy and successful as he is today is largely by accident. "The majority of everything that has gotten over in the past 25 years have been solely, solely by accident," Kelly explains, "very few long-term plans that he (Vince) has ever came up with ever came true and ever worked out". Hulk Hogan and Wrestlemania were a couple of the exceptions according to Kevin. Kevin Kelly Uncensored 4: "He's a genius at what? He's a genius at having a lot of money who can try a lot of things...and occassionally one of them will stick." (referring to Vince McMahon) Speaking of one of McMahon's most recent "genius" ideas, Matt Hardy being let go was brought up. Kevin Kelly says that he wouldn't have fired Hardy, he would have drawn money off of it. "I would have found a way to put the two of them in the ring together," speaking of Matt and Edge, "there has to be away to draw money from it". With that said, Kevin Kelly thinks Hardy needs to let it go. "Sitting at home and crying about it on your computer, you look like a big puss," Kevin continues, "either do something about it, or shut up and move on". Kevin Kelly Uncensored 5: "I know you're hurt, but it's time to move on...either nut up or shut up." (referring to Matt Hardy) Switching topics, Kevin Kelly didn't have too many fond things to say about Court Bauer being the newest addition to the WWE writing team. "He'd have just as much say in there as the kid down the street selling lemonade," Kelly jokes, "give me a break". Kevin says Bauer could, however, be very successful in the WWE, but it has nothing to do with wrestling. "It has everything to do with the fact that they (the WWE) are marks for Hollywood people." Kelly claims Court Bauer failed at MLW, failed at starting another company, and failed in Hollywood trying to write screenplays. Kevin Kelly Uncensored 6: "I'm not sure what he's ever done in his life...I really don't." (referring to Court Bauer) Although he fell asleep during a Jeff Jarrett promo the first time he tried to watch TNA Impact, Kevin Kelly keeps up with the behind-the-scenes stories concerning the company. He's skeptical of the WGN deal and calls out TNA on their recent talent decisions bringing in Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, and DDP. This prompted Cash to mention DDP's idea that it was him, Nash, Hall, and a couple others that got TNA looked at by the big t.v. stations. Kevin Kelly didn't quite agree with that theory. "DDP...he's a great guy," Kevin joked, "and if you don't believe it...just ask him". Kevin Kelly Uncensored 7: "He is the most selacious name-dropper in the history of the human race...he will drop a name faster than you will blink an eye..and it doesn't even have to be a popular name." (speaking on DDP) A chatroom member brought up "One Night Stand" and Kevin had very bold predictions to make regarding the outcome of the WWE-produced ECW pay-per-view. "It's going to fail...it's going to fail," Kevin says, "It's not going to fail because ECW wasn't great in the day or it couldn't be great now; it's going to fail because of who's running it". Kelly says just like the "Invasion" angle didn't work, this won't either because of the man heading the ship. He said wrestling fans that buy the ppv hoping to see an ECW ppv that they remember are being sold a bill of goods. Kevin Kelly Uncensored 8: "It's a doomed failure! Given their track record over the last 25 years, I'd be willing to say...this is something that they're going to try and they're going to fail at miserably." (on WWE's attempt to produce an ECW pay per view) 3PW announced recently that they'd be bringing Kevin Kelly in to produce their television starting on June 18th. Speculations and rumors have already been spread regarding Kevin Kelly and this new position including the accusations that Kevin is a racist. "I heard a rumor that I was being labeled a racist," Kevin says, "because Slyk Wagner Brown lost in 3PW this week (May 21) and because I was coming in, that meant Slyk was out. That's the rumor". Kevin responds to the allegations, "Slyk Wagner Brown is a tremendously talented athlete and he is a very gifted individual, but until he changes his perception of what should happen in a match, then he's only going to go so far. One day the light's going to go on for Slyk Wagner and he'll figure it all out, but he hasn't figured it out yet". Kevin Kelly Uncensored 9: "I am not a racist, but thank you very much for asking." The last discussion Chris, Mike, and Kevin really jumped into, by request of the listeners in the live chat room, was regarding the group of wrestlers traveling around doing the Christianity-based events and the belief that it's a ploy for many of them to make money. Big Mike added that it seems like the wrestlers that find religion are those that screw up their lives to the point of no return and use it as a scapegoat for their actions. "Are there phonies in the movement of this religious, wrestling phenomenon that's happened," Kevin asks and answers, "absolutely. There's also a lot of guys I think that are legit". Eddie Guerrero and Shawn Michaels are two Kevin mentioned as coming out on the "right side" of religion, but he's skeptical about Vince Russo. "If I sat down and I talked to him and I looked him in the eye, I would know for sure". Kevin Kelly Uncensored 10: "He is talk radio's speed-bump."

Guest The King Report post Posted June 2, 2005 I always found Kevin Kelly borderline pathetic, he just seems like the type who needed to be around important people to feel important, and apparently, he still feels that way.

Guest Ransome Report post Posted June 2, 2005 This just smacks of Kevin Kelly trying to attain smark credibility, despite the fact that he'll probably only be remembered for being made to keep his finger up his nose during a Rock interview. Either way, he's hardly saying anything new. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
