The Guru of What?

[ForzaItalia]

John Morrison, wow I remember this guy he used to be able to do some pretty neat things in the ring and on the mic. Hey was that not just about a year or so ago. Boy things can become very bad in a little more than a year. This guy went from amazing heel to bland, unpopular, nobody that barely gets a reaction from the fans. His mic work as a face is just so hard to watch. As a heel, Morrison was able to get a huge reaction from the crowd by ripping on people. Now he struggles for a single chant. In my eyes, now is the moment to turn Morrison. There are two ways you could currently turn him:

1. Have him join the Nexus: He could say that he was not given a fair chance to show what he could do for Team WWE and that all the fans care for is an overrated wanna be Rock that looks the cookie monster. And some old guy that was in his prime 15 years ago. Then have him say that the WWE needs him more than he needs it and that he will run things his way on the Nexus.

2. Have him dismantle R-Truth in the future: These guys are great as a tag team, and should be viewed as valid competitors for the belts. Here is what you have these two win the belts from whoever is champion. Then at Morrison's and Truth's defense have R-Truth get in Morrison's way and Morrison gets rolled up for the 1..2..3. Then these guys could argue for a bit until Morrison goes crazy debuts a new finisher and destroys R-Truth with a weapon. Leaving R-Truth out of action and Morrsion could go from there assuming Miz in the Main Event by then.

3. Do not turn him at all: Bring him to the blue brand, have him reform the MNM with Mercury or even have him feud with Dolph to gain momentum back. Give him a realistic finisher and Morrison will be good as new.

I can safely say he won't be joining Nexus. WWE just won't give him that shot to be honest.

Also, could you honestly see him taking down R-Truth like Batista could do? I certainly can't. They'd be pretty evenly matched weight wise certainly, but Truth is certainly much stronger.

But I agree he has went downhill bigtime since a couple of years ago now. But, maybe he just hasn't got the itch some of the others who are in the spotlight have now. Maybe he's happy where he is, who knows. I doubt it, but eh.

 

[ForzaItalia]

Yeah well I know Morrison can't beat down R-Truth Batista style. I meant he would get jealous and turn on R-Truth and blame R-Truth for all his failures like Batista did to Rey and basically take R-Truth out of action.

Well I don't agree with what you say by turning Morrison heel. The problem with Morrison is that he's on raw. It's the same thing that happened to guys like Mvp, Matt Hardy, and Jack Swagger they got drafted to raw and lost all momentum. When Morrison was on smackdown he had great matches with guys like Mysterio, Punk, Hardy, and Swagger but on raw he's lost in the shuffle theirs just to many big names their.

a heel turn would be great for him, but i think that a tag team of him and rtruth could work well for awhile. it would really liven up the tag team division, and with all the new superstars reaching for the main event, such as the miz and barrett, i really dont see him getting out of the midcard this year. the nxt angle is going to be a main focus until at least survivor series so i think they should team him with rtruth for a long time. they work really well together and their styles are pretty similar. not to mention rtruth gets huge pops for his song and morrison can work a really great match. they can be the most popular tag team since dx.

You know the WWE started doing something with John Morrison when they put him in a feud with Ted Dibiase. Since then they have dropped the ball. I would have like to see them continue their feud putting each other over ina back and forth style leaving fans uncertain whose going to win. When Maryase was introduced, I thought it was would build the feud to a new level. With Melina back she could have been added to intesify the feud even more. This feud could have continued for a many months with even putting the million dollar belt on the line. This could have been a great feud and pushed both superstars into some classic matches. I would have rather see a Morrison vs. Dibiase match at Summer Slam as opposed to him as part of team Nexus. That is where I see the WWE went wrong.

That's b.s. to everyone who says he should'nt turn, why not? He was way more motivated, enjoyed being a heel, cut good heel promos, drew real heat, even had better matches, why wwe f'd that up no one will no. If someone succeeds better at what they were doing, why screw it up. Some faces could never be heel, ex: santino, mysterio, r-truth. Then you have natural heels that have no business whatsoever being screwed by wwe into faces ex: the great waste/khali, kane, morrison, mvp, job henry, who by the way needs to change his music because he's the one always getting "his ass kicked"

His mic work is better than Swaggers honestly. I found Morrison very entertaining in his fued with McIntyre. His main problem is his finisher.He cant hit it right and it doesnt look that devestating. I mean this kid hit it better than morrison:

He needs to use Moonlight drive. Or at least as a set-up.

I think he needs to go back to SD. I honestly think he was only put on Raw so he could be on NXT/involved in the Nexus angle because he is more well establised than half the SD roster.

Send him to SD and give him a finisher that he doesn't botch every week. Problem solved.

 

[cmillsa1]

Just give him the superkick and sharp shooter as we all know he needs. change his name to john michaels or shawn morrison and have him superkick rtruth through a window. there hes fixed. Its obvious that if he was developed more then his gimmick is an almost direct copy of michaels early days. the sexy boy-the shaman of sexy. the pants, the cloths, geez even a lot of the wrestling style.

 

[mrhexum]

I think Morrison can fit well in many rolls. I do think that he gets a better pop as a heel....but as I've said and will probably say many times...he's another guy that WWE is just confused what to do with.

A new finisher would help...but with his talent I'd like to see him finish with lots of different ways, base them on the situation to/and make them more believable.

 

[Jonnie Walker]

I don't think he would fit in with the Nexus, but I do believe he should leave Raw and he should turn heel. I think a good idea for Morrison, honestly, is to work with Cody Rhodes in some way. Morrison calls himself the Shaman of Sexy, Cody Rhodes is "Dashing". This could be either a tag team or a feud. We all know Morrison needs Smackdown, what is there for him to do on Raw? Get beat up by the Nexus, job to Dibiase, and team with R Truth. On Smackdown, last year he was almost at a main event level, then he started jobbing to Drew, then he had a fake ankle injury, which still confuses me, then he was the second to last guy in the Elimination Chamber, and he gets drafted to Raw, misses a month, and has sucked ever since. We all used to endorse Morrison as a future world champ, he was a fantastic heel on ECW, and he was an even better upper-midcard face on Smackdown. His team with Miz was great, and almost everyone thought that when they broke that team up, Miz would be future endeavored within weeks and Morrison would be the next Shawn Michaels. Now, Miz is knocking on the main event door, and Morrison is pretty much that homeless guy who used to be in good shape until he got into some bad things with some bad people, and as a result is homeless. Morrison is great when he wants and tries to be, but as of now, he's nothing more than mediocre. Take him off Raw, maybe he can rebound, but if he remains on Raw, I think it'll be safe to say he's fucked.

Bill Lesnar enjoyd Jomos work when in a tag team with the miz, who Bill Lesnar thinks Carried jomo. Once his fued with the miz was over, Bill Lesnar realised jomo wass all by himself therefore had to cut promos by himself. Jomo is the guru of ugg boots that is all in Bill Lesnars opion. Bill Lesnar thinks morrison could have been grea on nxt, but got a poor rookie to deal with
