Morrison is so much better on the mic than Lashley. He articulates himself and gets heat. I really don't see it when people complain about his mic skills.

On the Big Daddy V scale, John Morrison gets Three Boobs Up!

He is damn good looking, and I mean that in a non-gay way.

The only reason why John Morrison had a "grueling match" was because he went for a mustache ride.
People who know who his opponent was in that segment will get that one.

It was a lot more entertaining than I expected, seeing as how a lot of posters here crap all over something different before it plays out.
I think this is a winner.

Morrison really won me over with that entire segment. Before the show began I was actually saying to a friend how much I miss Johnny Nitro, but damn I thought that he delievered that promo well. John Morrison just got himself another fan, because I am now on the bandwaggon.

With better mic skills, that segment could've won me over. Nitro's mic work just sounds too corny.

Yeah, but its like Nitro ran that show. There needs to be a GM! Why not Shane? As far as "executive" people go, he is the most extreme. Hell, if he had wanted to, he could've been a full time wrestler, he puts on better matches than half the roster. None the less, Shane McMahon for GM of ECW!

I almost didn't watch last night because Nitro has the belt. I tuned in about halfway through. He is bad for ratings.

Nitro DOESN'T have the belt. Morrison does.
I'm not even being sarcastic, it's the difference between Shawn "Rocker" Michaels and The Heartbreak Kid. Ringmaster and Stone Cold.

Sorry, but Morrison was horrible on the mic. He doesn't believe what he's saying, he sounds like an actor from a bad porn or something, when you listen to him you KNOW he's acting. Its a shame because I like him as a wrestler and love his look and everything but he isn't quite the full package yet. That said, he can still improve and everything.

It sounds like something out of a high school play.

I find myself liking him more & more each week. I've been a fan of his for a few years now but he's easily becoming one of my current favourites.

He has good material, but his delivery is so flat and robotic. I'm not buying him as a champion at this juncture.

"I am John Morrison. Let me take you on a trip to the void of infinity on the carousel of a unicorn's dream. Behold me, the majestic champion of an infinite multiverse and abandon the purple aura of your soul to the forbidden pleasures of the shaman king" WTF ;D
I love how his promos are getting more and more trippy each week. I think the only problem, as others have stated, is that he doesn't sound plausible, he isn't a very good actor yet. Great wrestler though...
