So I don't like John Morrison...=(

[tommybrownell]

I loved MnM, and I really became a mark for Morrison when he became John Morrison...and I was said to see him and Miz split, but I figured it was time for Morrison to become a Superstar...

...so it was pretty harsh when I realized recently that Morrison doesn't have "It"...=(

I've seen a lot of people bash on Lucky Cannon of NXT Season 2, and I realized: Morrison and Cannon are basically the same guy, Cannon just doesn't have a gimmick. Morrison, this entire time, has one goofy expression, his mic work is...rough...he tries to cram WAY too much into his matches, he needs to stop throwing strikes until they stop looking like crap (his punches or forearms or whatever the Hell they're supposed to be are awful), and while he's not hurting anybody with Starship Pain, he barely ever hits.

Seriously...The Miz is the Shawn Michaels and Morrison is the Marty Jannetty...=(

Yeah, Morrison is a lot like Carlito to me. I thought Carlito would be headlining 'mania at some point. Same with Morrison. Instead Morrison will eventually probably get his release in about a year or two.

I do love his slow motion entrance, but he really needs to go back to being a heel. The Starship Pain is probably equal to the Swanton Bomb as my most hated finisher. It looks cool, sure, but how does hitting the back of your head into a guy's stomach (or the mat) from that high of a position really hurt him more than you?

If Morrison actually hit the Starship Pain like he's supposed to (body to body), it would be fine...but I don't think he's hit it in months...and it's even worse because EVERY TIME HE DOES THE MOVE he stops, looks back, and checks the position of his opponent.

And still misses.

I'm with you on Carlito, especially once he started showing off more of his moveset...the big difference between the two, though, is that Morrison's attitude doesn't seem to be nearly as bad as Carlito's.

Morrison channels The Doors, Carlito channels Amy Winehouse ("They tried to make me go to rehab but I said no no no").

When Liller is the most accurate in a thread... I am scurred.
