I thought the hatred from him basically running into TNA and costing us GOOD X Division matches, as he has been pushed straight to a big PPV match with no build up whatsoever. With Hogan and his cronies taking over, I'm surprised the X-Division hasn't been completely abandoned or invaded by people like Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake, to be honest.

I have no problem with Shannon Moore, but I *really* hope he loses at the PPV. He hasn't done a damn thing in TNA except do a run in, and he's granted a title shot? Makes no sense to me. Bischoff gave him the title shot it seems... but Moore seems to be getting pushed as a good guy, so why would Bischoff want to help him? Even from a kayfabe standpoint it makes no sense to me.
The thing I really don't get though is that TNA gave the title match Kaz vs Williams vs Daniels on TV for free, but they expect people to pay to see a Williams vs Moore title match. Shannon Moore doesn't even come close to having that kind of marquee value. Daniels and Kaz are well-established names in TNA. As for Moore, many people seriously probably do not know who he is. It's not like when Lashley debuted and got the big star treatment. Shannon Moore is an undercard guy, and TNA should be treating him as one until he can get himself over.

Yeah, I don't get the hate. If you don't like him as a wrestler, alright, opinions differ. I think he is pretty good, I think Kaz should be at the PPV, but this match should be alright.
People saying, "he looks like a poser" or "is desperate for attention"...this is wrestling. There are giant chicken men and hockey players and naked chicks. All of them want attention. This is the way he thought would work, and it kind of did.
Saying he's there to keep Hardy happy, what about last time when they pushed him and there was no hardy in sight?

I think Shannon is awesome and Doug Williams bugs the piss out of me. In every picture I've seen of the guy he is making some stupid ass face. Shannon was in the middle of a big push last time he left TNA so I hope he stays around this time.

I just dislike guys who have a gimmick that puts them into a societal niche, like the punk scene or the goth scene, but don't do anything at all, besides looking like a parody of that scene, to identify with it. In ECW, all Moore did was ride a train and scowl like he was riding in the back of his mother's mini van. That's it.
C'mon, if he's the prince of punk, do something to deserve that moniker. Talk, play music, beat the crap out of someone, have a hot punk valet you treat like crap, c'mon. Don't stand around and do nothing like a zombie.

Someone on another forum pointed out he's coming scarily close to looking just like Luna, which is pretty bloody funny.

You can't just go out there and say it's glam rock time or whatever, make it glam rock time. (however it is that one would do that) I've never had a problem with him. He's just always sort of "been there," you know? He was best as 1/3 of 3 Count and as Hardys' MFer imo.

I honestly can't stand him because he looks completely desperate for attention. i have to agree. i think he works best as someone's lackey. tho i will say i prefer him getting the title over Kazarian. i've said before i just don't get the kaz love. i think if he were a heel it might work better. Kaz looks like a heel to me....

I dont understand the Shannon hate.He is cool,not a main eventer,but cool for a mid-carder Because he sounds like a fruit. He supost be be a punk rocker. Instead he just looks a pretty boy with a horrible haircut. The moehawk does not work for him. The whole look and character just doesn't fit him or work. Yeah he ok in the ring but that's it.

He LOOKED like a character...but he wasn't one.

Is his orange skin part of his gimmick? Surely the goths will be tunred off by his Dale Winton tan?
Dont know who Dale Winton is? Google it woman!

From what I've seen of him on the Hardy Show, it seems like a gimmick closer to Slam Master J would fit him alot better than "Prince of Punk".
As seen in this video (language warning)

Yeah, the only gimmick that ever really worked for him was the boy band character, because he looks like Taylor Hanson. I adored that gimmick. Pure heel heat. I adored it.

They need someone in TNA to do a remake of this... But for, like, real. I know. Someone really needs to bring sexy back to TNA.
