With Sayians favorite wrestlers from the attitude era mostly, it doesn't surprise me how bitter he is. Seriously when is the ignore button going to be put on the site.
It's called him not having talent like ither youth such as Miz, Cody, Cena, Swagger, Dolph.

Morrison is monotone. He has no character. He was there for almost a decade with his developmental time and still couldn't cut a live promo. He was a walking spot fest. His career highlight was having Melina and Miz draw reactions from him as a heel. What talent? He couldn't do what he did in that video, which wasn't funny anyhow in front of a live audience or without constant takes because he was the worst guy on the roster at cutting a promo or interacting with the crowd. He was a waste of space, running on a wheel like a hamster. The white Shelton Benjamin who stole the look of Rick Rude but had none of the technical restyling skill. He was a jobber with no upside, who didn't improve on his weakness, and was stupid enough to let a bitch dictate his career path. This vid is just an attempt to be relevant, a cheap dirt sheet ripoff without the talented half there to carry him and using two talented guys whose boots he can't lace and position he will never be come close to so he can get himself some net love and be somewhat relevant since he isn't on tv, has no outside projects worth a damn, or in any of the major wrestling companies

If we want to be technical, i didn't jump off the Miz ship when he started jobbing and change my name and favorite wrestler list to Jericho! True fandom lol

Well as Dale said I can't win an argument with a stubborn guy like you. I know one of the more OVER faces in the company last year is a waste of space. If you actually watched last year, he was the 3rd most over face on Raw and really got the crowd behind him. He's had four star matches and has had some insane moments. You continue to be negative though because thats all you like to do. He may not have the great mic work but I never said he's the complete package. All I'm saying is that he was credible and that he was one of the hottest stars going into 2011.

I didn't hop off the Miz bandwagon at all. I always will like Miz but the fact is that he got boring. I got sick of hearing the whole "I headlined WM 27" promo week after week. That's the only reason why, he got so dull. Hopefully he changes his shtick soon and people will start buzzing about The Miz.


Apparently this ass clown is somehow an admin so I can't ignore him. Can we get that fixed by any chance?

He was nowhere near a top 3 face last year. Cena, Punk, and HHH were all active last year in the time he was there because he missed most the year. Trish was more over in their tag team. Rey also was on Raw last year and more active or did you forget him becoming WWE champ? How do you get top 3 most over face when he has never been more over than most guys on either brand? And please name a 4 star match because that is close as hell to perfect on tv . Lastly yes he was hot going in to 2011 because they figured he might put it together but he still couldn't cut a promo, fucked up with Trish, got hurt, did a mini twitter rant on trips, and didn't get enough support from the fans for them to put him over truth in his return despite the feud being designed for him to get revenge.

Saiyains although you make a decent point about him ripping on two great guys when he's a nobody, I think this was more of a joke then anything else. I mean it all seemed like light hearted humor to me and JOMO really wouldn't legit shoot on Taker or HHH tbh.

It seems too convenient to me. He waits until wm time to do it. He has had months to try and be funny. He saw their match getting build and put this out to leech off their names and match for some attention he is duly lacking for the first time in years. That isn't cool at all, especially when he spent a good minute this summer bitching on twitter about HHH. It's petty to me

Do you honestly take things seriously? What Morrison did this late summer to early fall was story line purposes. He said on camera that he didn't like HHH so what does that have got to do with anything. Mysterio went to Raw in late April while Orton went to SD same time. Morrison was still the 3rd most over face at the time. Trish is a legend and she deserved to get that huge pop. I just don't think you give Morrison enough credit that's all. We all know that he is pretty poor on the mic, but don't forget some of the epic encounters with Miz and Sheamus. Also those Chamber performances from 2010 and 2011 were brilliant.

Yeah if you don't like Taker/HHH and have an agenda to write a column with as many fuck you's as possible to them ... Oh wait. That guy is just bad and even worse when trying to be funny or charismatic.

Someone's butthurt. His video was 50x more interesting than anything either of them did the build to their Wrestlemania Hell in a Cell match.

The stuff he said was pretty funny the way he did it though was kinda eh. Think you're digging deeper than you should be with this PSYCH he;s obviously just doing it out of good fun making fun of stuff that net fans do with these two anyways.

Personally I absolutely deteste Morrison, always have and always will. Been calling him the white Shelton for years now, fantastic athlete but totally devoid of everything else needed to succeed. With that being said, I enjoyed the video for what it was and that was some light hearted comedy. Not at all a surprise though to see Psych go off one yet again as soon as HHH or Taker is mentioned, so unbelievably predictable and can read him like a book.

Shelton could wrestle though without spots. He was a very good mat worker. Morrison to me always lacked that as well. But yeah both are were stuck like a hamster running in place on a spinning wheel

Still don't know why they let Morrison go. Always was a fan of him as an upper-midcard face who performs in those multi-man matches.

Also, guys, don't feed the troll. Seriously.
