Between him promoting the sale of WM 25 tickets here, to working the WWE Political convention coverage, to promoting his new film Behind Enemy Lines 2, the guy is really everywhere. He is a promotion machine, which is what Vince loves about John Cena currently. Just like Cena, Kennedy does all this extra work for the WWE and I think that could only put him in the WWE's good graces if anything. But certainly this wouldn't make them think about firing him or not resigning him.
2. There is mention of Steve Austin being at Wrestlemania, which we all assumed being that it was in Texas, but personally I am glad that we now have a credible person in the industry saying it.

They're still paying him while he's injured so it makes sense. It doesn't seem like hard work if you're not wrestling. Plus the difference between him and Cena is that I don't think you can draw an event on Kennedy's name alone. He's not at that point yet. Yeah he has a movie, but it's a straight to DVD one.
It may seem like I'm being critical, but honestly I'd like to seem him be pushed to the main-event level sometime in mid to late '09. I'm tired of seeing the main event scene on Smackdown! being dominated by Hardy, HHH, Taker, Edge, it's been like this for a while now and we need new blood.
