Phillip Kennedy (born Phillip Benjamin Kennedy) is an American professional wrestler and semi-professional poker player, currently working for Sin City Championship Wrestling. He is considered by many to be at the very least an associate of the Dead Man's Hand stable.

Debut in Sin City

Kennedy made his professional wrestling debut on the May 5, 2008 edition of SCCW Temptation, in a losing effort against Jay Draven. He would, however, notch his first professional victory in only his second match, a triple threat match against the debuting Simon King and Tina Davis, Kennedy using his Straight Flush manuever on Davis to pick up the win on the first ever SIN on SPIKE. Perhaps more importantly, however, Kennedy would go on to meet Katsidy backstage following his victory. The two became, shall we say, fast friends, beginning the rookie's association with Desade's notorious Dead Man's Hand stable.

The June 28 Temptation saw Kennedy step into the ring for the third time in his career, against the recently returned Sean Sterling, member of the Highwaymen, in a qualifying match for the Heaven & Hell Match at SCCW All-In. During comments made before the match, Sterling made no bones about his belief that Kennedy had been sent to face him by order of Desade. Kennedy himself met with Hand associate Savant before the contest, discussing a variety of topics. Ultimately, Sterling was victorious in the qualifier, defeating Kennedy with the Hail to the Thief.

Kennedy is set to take on Wyatt Connors in a match for the SCCW LiveWire Championship this week on SCCW Temptation.

Questions continue to surround Phillip Kennedy, particularly in regards to his status with the Dead Man's Hand. Whether he's with the group or not, however, is not something that any of the involved parties are revealing.
