How great is this guy? So f**kin' sexy. Great build, size, look. Amazing wrestler. Great high flier. Good technician. Has a great imagination. Awesome voice. Cool attire. Prediction: WWE Main Event breakthrough for 2009. At least I hope to God he is. He better make it, and not become another "wasted potential" like Shelton Benjamin, Sean O'Haire etc. Morrison CAN make it.

Dream. Love. Scream. MORRISON.

The Shaman of Sexy? The Guru of Greatness? Hahaha oh my God this kid is trying way too hard to be Chris Jericho. He's even got the accent going on. Albeit it's been a while since I've watched WWE let alone ECW, but I have to admit the kids gained at least some sort of personality since I last saw him on Raw where he was worthless, even if that personality is stolen. And I only use a name he's used as a wrestler on WWE, his first name if I remember correctly.

Not that you're old enough to remember most of his early work, but the Rock got a healthy helping of boos, even when he was a face. And most of his face time was just a set up to become a heel. Take, for instance, his time feuding with McMahon before he won his first WWF Championship. IMMEDIATELY after he joins the Corporation and becomes exactly what he'd been berating in the months beforehand. And lets not forget his turn as a member of the NOD, which was pretty much what catapulted his career.

You've just said what I said already. If you'll look at the dates I've given, you've just filled in what he was doing in that time, which I already know in incredible detail, just didn't feel the need to spell it all out.

And look at the original heel Jericho character in WCW. He was a loser who wanted to be successful. Trying to bear Goldberg, getting crappy pyro and constantly underrated. Morrison is none of those. He's pushed as a real deal (or was for a while, now he's one half of the best tag team this Century).

And his very first face run, aka the start of his career, was not to set him up as a heel. He just didn't get over, that simple. So yeah, obviously when he joined the Nation, vented his frustration and threw in some comedy, he ironically got over.

You seem to be one of these people who doesn't want new stars to be pushed because you're unfamiliar with them. That's such a WCW problem. The WWE have always pushed and created new stars, and if they're smart, which they are, they'll make Morrison a Main Eventer within the coming years.

Also, why do you differentiate WWE and ECW? WWE own ECW now. It's just a third brand of WWE, only with the "ECW" name. Nothing at all like the original ECW. It's still a decent brand, though. Just shouldn't be named ECW.
