I don't think it's a bad thing that Morrison is doing a poetry angle, as long as they don't let him have air time to read them out.
It's another quirk to give his character more depth and it's not as if he's running around proclaiming to be King of Kings or anything stupid like that

Yeah, WWE's biggest returning guy going with a gimmick that's getting him WAY over. Completely stupid.

How could WWE stand to make more money off of marketing something marketable?

*cough* *cough*

BOOM!

Seriously I hate out of control Gimmicks, hint, why I hate half of what WWE produces. Plus the only gimmick that catches on is the Undertaker one, so they should really learn that this doesn't work.

To whom are you speaking? The general population?

Because I never once complained, I love it. Anything that pays homage to ol' Jimmy Morrison is a-ok with me, and he pulls it off decently.

It's not a big deal. It's his character, as a hippie type guy.

No matter how bad his "poetry" is, you can't deny the fact that ol' Johnny boy's a good wrestler to watch in action especially against the likes of CM Punk and even back during his Johnny Nitro days.

.....but I'm sure his "poems" will still suck.....

I really liked Johnny Nitro, and I don't see why they changed his gimmick. But I still think his new gimmick is good and he can pull it off. I really have no problem with the poetry. I like how this thread is called "when a gimmick goes too far". Have you ever watched WWE before? haha jk.
