Welp, It's Summer Again and Matt Morgan's Getting A Push... God Help Us

[SpecialFNK]

one of the things I notice with wrestlers, is what they are wearing. Samoa Joe for example. I think when he has worn trunks that were multiple colours, he looked ridiculous. he's too fat to be wearing trunks like that, made him look like a beach ball. Samoa Joe should be in one solid dark colour. I thought he had a good look not too long ago when he went to one solid black baggy trunks. he just looked more baddass.
as for Morgan. WTF is he doing wearing gold? he should be wearing black, or another solid dark colour. he would just look better.
I don't mind the beard. it's better than clean shaved.

moves are another thing to notice. shouldn't/wouldn't Morgan be better if he used a power bomb? or a choke slam?

The OP has a serious Matt Morgan issue, it seems that he hates him so much that I think there is a little lit of a man crush going on.

I personally have time for Morgan, as has been said, he is decent in the ring for a big guy and can talk, more than most in both TNA and WWE at the moment.

So OP, get a life and stop your bitching just because you have a personal grudge for whatever reason it is. You are obviously trying to prove him right in what he said on the DVD and you are also exactly the kind or person he was talking about, well done.

I just think the man sucks, is all. I'm sure he's a bright guy, nice enough. This isn't something about Matt Morgan the person.

This is about Matt Morgan the wrestler, who to me, absolutely sucks.

Again, essentially the main argument is that in a bunch of crap, he's the least green turd.

Gotcha.

Pretty sure you have more of a problem with me than I ever did with Matt

Ever since Morgan came back from being away for a while, I started gaining more interest. I liked the new look and attitude, I liked the confrontations between him and Hulk....but most of, I liked the independence. Everything was going fine up until last week. Why did he have to lose to Sting? It ruined everything that was built up for him. He was supposed to be the dominant, independent monster that was going to 'gut through Hogan's entire roster' Now what?

I honestly don't know where we go from here. If he replaces D'lo in Aces & Eights, then he loses that independence which is necssary for his type of character. But if he stays where he is, nobody can take him seriously anymore. It will be interesting to see what TNA goes with him....because honestly I have no clue.

this is a good point, something I guess I forgot about. when Morgan came back he said he was going to go through the entire roster. well now he's gone through most of the roster, got to Sting, and well I guess he can't say he's going to go through the entire roster now since it stopped with Sting.
I thought Morgan looked impressive against Sting, and only lost because he passed out. but a loss is a loss.

I have nothing against Matt Morgan, really. The wrestler, by the way. Not the man. Ever since he came back, he has been mostly talk but he still can put on decent matches. His storytelling basically sucks right now as he would most likely be better as an angry dominant force instead of being a smirking showboating one. His promos are, again, decent enough but it might be time for him to expand a bit beyond the "Hogan mistakes". His look is quite marketable and his athleticism is just another plus for him to exploit but I definitely agree with Zion, he really needs another haircut. Especially if he's gonna wear a badass beard.

Now. Last week. You probably all know the saying about it "not being about the destination but about the journey". Last week's main event was utter garbage. Much can and will probably be made of the end result (Morgan passing out instead of giving up) to portray him as a real tough customer. However, the journey to get there was so terrible that, for me at least, it only served to taint the destination.

1. For a man gunning for the title shot he had been asking for, Morgan didn't seem angry or hungry enough and goofed around too much. But fair enough, he plays it cocky, fine.

2. Sting brought nothing. Nothing. He was crap for most of the match and that brought the main event's entertaiment value way down. Again, fair enough. That would serve to show how dominant Morgan actually was during the match. Again, fine.

3. Here is what I have beef with and where I think Morgan might suffer for it in the long run. Despite contributing next to nothing during the match and being manhandled for most of it, Sting turned it around with a few punches, a few generic moves outside the ring, actually ran right into Morgan's finisher and took it like it was a bitchslap, pulled off another splash and ended it with two feeble-looking Deathlocks. What purpose did that serve? Considering everything that had happened earlier in the match, it only served to make Morgan appear weak as watered down whiskey. If that was supposed to be a rub for Morgan, I sincerely think it was a failure because they just showed that no matter how dominant Morgan could be, he got punked out in two minutes.

As for Morgan not winning because Morgan vs Bully Ray is a no-no, they still could have made him look genuinely strong and made it into a triple threat title match with Morgan being kind of a tweener. Problem solved. I really think Morgan could be something interesting but he really got the short end of the stick on that one.
