The John Morrison Fan Club - The Palace of Wisdom

First of all I'd like to congratulate wwefan49 about getting to 10 posts. I'd like you to continue with a steady posting rate. Remember not to spam. Always add details, reasons, and ingenuity(well this isn't necessary) to all of your posts. If you keep it up you can become a full fledged member, though it will take time. Just remember that the program you've been put on is not only meant to make you a full member, but also to make you a valued member of these forums.

For those who missed it, this is one of the many reasons why Morrison is great.

Fluidity

This my favorite Morrison attribute. Nevermind the fact that he can utilize any style(powerhouse, submission, brawler, high flier, and technical), the way he moves around the ring from move to move is amazing. He shows such poise, grace, and awareness.

My favorite moment happened during one of the Morrison/Punk matches. John was resting outside of the ring(carrying Punk is hard work) and Punk got on the apron to attack John. Little did Punk know, Morrison was already back at 100% and ready for more action. At this point Morrison could have done anything to Punk. He could have jumped up and delivered a career ending ddt, supplexed him intn the crowd, or powerbombed him onto the outside. But John pitied Punk and instead delivered the most beautiful roundhouse kick I've ever seen. It hit Punks ankles and sent the back of his head straight into the apron...silly Punk.

I in no way take credit for the following.

Having carefully constructed both career and ring persona, ECW star John Morrison knows that succeeding in and outside the wrestling ring depends on brains as much as brawn.

Mr. Morrison began his professional career on the wrestling-themed reality show Tough Enough . Signed to World Wrestling Entertainment, Mr. Morrison took the name Johnny Nitro and, after garnering some success and popularity, John Morrison. Although a wrestling fan as a child (Mr. Morrison admits that the occasional schoolyard bout periodically landed him in trouble), Mr. Morrison originally thought he would pursue other interests, studying film and geology at the University of California Davis.

"I thought about filmmaking, about treasure hunting," he said during a recent telephone interview. ''But then I saw Tough Enough on MTV and thought that was something I could do. It was everything I wanted to do. It was physical. It was storytelling. It was all those things I was interested in."

Although clearly rooted in the physical, Mr. Morrison said he quickly learned that wrestling success was also an intellectual pursuit. He said the wrestlers who become truly successful are the ones that consider how they approach their career and work hard to maintain it.

"You need to always think," he said. "Wrestling is this uniquely American thing, the biggest and greatest show. It's a show that gives fans what they want to see. That takes work, because I'm not sure fans always know what that is. They just know it when they see it."

The core to Mr. Morrison's approach is to remember that in many ways, wrestling is nothing more than a big, loud and occasionally violent morality play. It's about action and consequence, with consequence sometimes being a folding chair to the skull.

"The root of sports entertainment is striking a chord, making people feel something," he said. "Wrestlers are essentially showing society the things we all want to do. They are standing up to their boss or living up to a dream."

Over the course of his career, Mr. Morrison has won championships, formed fruitful partnerships -- he's currently one half of the current WWE tag team champion pairing -- and developed a fan base. As his career has developed, so has his perception of success. Initially, his measures of success were fairly standard, matches won and money earned. Today, he takes what he considers a more Zen-like approach to success and satisfaction in the wrestling world.

"My thinking has evolved," he said. "When I perform in front of a crowd, when I perfect a move, that's what is interesting to me. It's sort of like self-actualization. Now, the secret of that success is you can't be happy with just anything. You have to find joy in improvement. That's what I'm trying to do, every day."
