He is a former two-time TNA World Heavyweight Champion, making him an overall two time world heavyweight champion. He wrestled under the ring name Mr. Kennedy during his time with International Wrestling Entertainment (IWE) between 2005 and 2009.
Before being promoted to the main IWE roster, Anderson wrestled for numerous promotions in his career. While performing in these promotions, he won various championships, both in tag team and singles competition. Anderson was assigned to IWE's developmental territory Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) in Louisville, Kentucky in 2005.
After signing with IWE, Anderson made his debut on the SmackDown! roster in August 2005. In September 2006 he captured his first and only title with the company, the IWE United States Championship, and would hold onto it for a month. The following year, at WrestleMania 23, Anderson won the annual Money in the Bank ladder match, a contract, which guarantees a match for one of IWE's world titles. He was released from his IWE contract on May 29, 2009. He returned to the independent circuit before signing a contract with TNA in 2010.
