Dont really know if I could call Edge the next HBK...
Would it be good for these guys to be compared to HBK
Would people say "hes the new HBK" or would they say "hes that new main eventer"
Would it be better to establish a legacy without being compared?

I think Morrison has the look, Kendrick has the personality, but both need to work on mic skills.

Wasn't there some discussion of their being "the next Nature Boy" when Ric Flair retired? I don't believe there will be a "new" HBK. There'll be similar gimmicks but there won't be a "Sherri" or "Diesel" character hanging around either of these guys, so no.
And don't say Ezekiel is Diesel because they're two different characters completely. And that would mean the Miz is Sherri, and I won't accept that comparison.

They're all establishing their names without being the new HBK in my opinion.

He may not be the new HBK, but Morrison's SCM was much better than Michaels'.

I say they get rid of the "The" in Brian Kendrick's nickname, call him "Here's Brian Kendrick", and have him claim to be the new "H.B.K." ...

Kendrick.
I love Morrison, don't get me wrong, but he doesn't scream HBK to me. Kendrick, however, has the moveset, look, and personality of early 90's HBK almost exactly. He even has a bodyguard.

Kendrick and Morrison do not have the charisma between them that HK has on his own.

Other, absolutely no one. No one can be the next HBK, because HBK is the man.

Of those choices I would go with Morrison, I just don't think Kendrick has it in him

I am a HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HBK fan, he is my all time favourite wrestler, and i have watched every single match he has ever had in the E. Intersting 3 choices cause, i thought of those 3 guys as my next favs after HBK retires ( whenever that is). Edge is the man period. Think about it, he has more or less been right behind HBK's matches or better in most WM's ( think 16, 17, 21, 22, 23 though it was the 3rd best that year and 24). Now MOrrison has been the guy who is said has the potential to be like HBK in the future with a bit more work. I have been saying that since 06 or so. NOW this year The Brain Kendrick has been AMAZING! That guy has early 90's HBK written all over him, and he is a damn fine wrestler. So far he has followed the mood the closest. Tag Team, to Heel single with a bodygurad ( he had no Sherri but whatever). Kendrick is your future bank on it.
Now with that said NOBODY will ever suprass HBK. I mean that guy is the man period. Nobody has had the career that he has had, hell he is the closest thing we can compare to Ric Flair and in some minds ( mine included ) he has suprassed Ric. He is an Icon, and as good as Morrison, Edge and Kendrick are it will be very hard for any of them to match HBK.

I love Morrison, however, I loved him in the same way I loved Razor Ramon/Scott Hall in the WWF/WCW days. He is just missing something to be considered a world champion
It would be like the first time Jarrett or DDP won the world title. I kinda scratched my head, unsure of whether or not I believed that outcome, and decided to see whether or not it played out. On Jarrett, I was unsold, and on DDP, I felt a lot of his big matches were missing something

The chemistry Kendrick shows in the ring, just reminds me of HBK when he was in the early years.
