CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Mr. Kennedy seemed to be trying out for an infomercial tonight. But the only thing he was pedaling was a series of insults to Shawn Michaels.

The loudmouth from Green Bay, Wis., dissed a bunch of HBK's merchandise, including his new DVD, Heartbreak & Triumph. The verbal slap to Michaels' face was only the latest putdown from Mr. Kennedy, who feels that HBK doesn't deserve any more WWE Championship opportunities. He announced that he'll have the opportunity to make his case when he faces off against HBK at Armageddon.  Read the full preview… | Photos

However, before Armageddon, Kennedy further bolstered his argument when he overpowered high-flyer Brian Kendrick in a singles competition.
