Ken Anderson says he was scheduled to win the WWE Title in 2007

Former WWE star Ken Anderson spoke with Chris Van Vliet before the Legends of Wrestling event at Miccosukee Resort and Gaming last week.

Anderson told a story during the interview about how he was scheduled to win the WWE World Heavyweight Title from The Undertaker at a SmackDown TV taping in 2007 after winning the Money in the Bank briefcase at WrestleMania 23, but those plans changed after he suffered an arm injury at an RAW TV taping. At the time, it was believed that he tore his tricep, but he learned later that he just bruised it really bad. WWE already made the choice to have him drop the Money in the Bank briefcase, and Edge went on to cash-in on Taker.

Anderson also said that he made a lot of mistakes throughout his WWE career and being outspoken about Chris Benoit got him a lot of heat within the company.
