Brighter Future: MVP or Mr. Kennedy?

    over the last few months Smackdown has seen two superstar really rise above the rest of teh talent there. Those two being Montel Vontavious Porter and Mr. Kenendy. It got me to thinking as both of these men are older than the other younger stars WWE has been developing but they are the ones that are getting the pushed that they deserve.

    MVP for example is 33 years old and that quite older than most that begin to get pushed in their careers looking the WWE today. But ever since his debut upon the Smackdown scene he has showed that he can improve and work decent matches. Which has really come true when looking at his matches with Beniot and matt hardy. Now MVP I feel in on the right path but is probably another year behind in the curve before he is a main eventer and challenge for World title. You have to like the upside on a guy like MVP as he has ok height at 6'2 and a good moveset thought he could probably need a better finished and work on his mic skils but other that he has nothing but upside. All MVP needs is the right feuds and he will mature well in a star.also he is a one time us camp.

    Mr. Kennedy for example now is 31 years old so he’s not that young either. Though Kennedy has show over the last year or so that he has been working on his game and has become quite a ring master in the ring. Granted he does still need to work on his wrestling skills but you have to admit that he is getting to that main event level especially with WWE giving him the money in the bank win at Wrestlemania 23. Promos please this man is a genius when it comes to promos as he can draw heel heat and face pops. He has gotten one very important key part down that being the mic skills. Now if he continues to improve his in ring skills with the right people we will see Mr. Kennedy be the world champion by the end of this year.

    In looking at the two right now you have to pick Kennedy just for the fact that he is the one getting the push right now and MVP is beginning the steps to move to that level. But my main question is when its all said and done baring injuries who will have the brighter future MVP or Kennedy?

    I go Kennedy as got the mic skills and can pull of a decent match in the ring plus much more upside.

    Even though im probably more impressed by MVP i expect Mr.Kennedy to be pushed further. He has already had a few aborted pushes but having been very unfortunate with injuries never get the chance to avail of his MITB win or HBK feud for example. The WWE (Vince) like's him and had supposidly even planned to use him instead of Hornswaggle as Vinces illigitimate son but appearantly they changed things when it was leaked, therefore i can see him getting more chances in the future and as pointed out he is youger (although its only slightly younger).

    MVP is miles ahead of Kennedy in my book. Much better worker, more entertaining on the mic, and he's also shown that he can learn very fast when working with good wrestlers. Kennedy seemingly learned nothing when he was working with Shawn and he messed so much stuff up during that run

    Kennedy has been injured so much it really makes me doubt whether or not he known what hes doing in the ring. Also, these injuries will shorten his career. I'm not a fan of his mic work. He stuff with MVP recently felt like a heel's promos, which made me want to cheer for MVP. Its not good to confuse your audience like that. He was pretty bad in his rivalry with Regal on RAW, too.

    MVP seems to be very clever on the mic, and is miles better as a performer.
