Mr. Anderson Says Sting Painted His Face For The Surfer Sting Angle
Mr. Anderson, also known as Mr. Kennedy, recently participated in a Reddit AMA. You can see the full Q&A at this link, and highlights below.
Dressing as Surfer Sting:
That was actually my idea. I said in passing one day, “What about me dressing up as old Sting?” I mean, I had the blonde hair. And Sting actually loved it. Those outfits that I wore were actually Sting’s old gear. And he painted my face. A cool moment. Looking back on that, I would have to slide him into that group of most significant opponents that I’ve had.
His favorite spots:
One of my favorite spots, and I was able to do it with Marty Scurll, a twist on the Eddie Guerrero chair spot. We took it one step further…the second guy acts like he's knocked out and throws the chair in the middle of the ring and the ref gets confused when he sees both guys knocked out.
Who is in his personal Hall of Fame
On a wrestling level…Taker, Kurt Angle, both the Hardys, Sting. And that's just for guys that I've worked with. All of them really took me under their wing in their own way and really helped me become a better performer.
