Bringing Trigger warnings onto this board?
Really? Really? Really?
...Riley?
And good god, before WWE ruined Cesaro, they ruined JoMo.

John Morrison made Cena look like Ricky Steamboat.
Between screwing his friend out of a title shot and then acting somehow confused when R-Truth turned heel on him and constantly antagonizing Sheamus when he wasn't even feuding with him due to Sheamus dealing with Santino, he just looked like the biggest douche. Didn't help that he wanted to get under Drew's skin and accidentally cut himself with a sword while trying to be funny in a highlander getup.

What are you talking about? I was there live for this. R-Truth turned heel and smoked a cigarette in a country where smoking in an indoor public place is illegal. It was the greatest segment ever!

Was R Truth supposed to be heel in that video?

In terms of being absolutely awful, nothing in this decade has been even close to the level of the NXT 2 finale. If you think otherwise, you're probably the type that wishes this forum was a swimming pool. ..and it's not. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU WANT IT TO BE

I kinda like Axel now, but man, it took YEARS for me to not be filled with disdain for him due to this and his terrible haircut. Looks better nowadays, probably since someone clued him in that his wet look made his hair look thinner than cellophane.

I was there live for a worse Morrison promo though. It was during the Sheamus feud where he blathered on about Sheamus being silly in the king gear, that he needed one of those "half man/half goat things" from Narnia, etc. Morrison was a really exciting wrestler at his best but he was seriously one of the worst promos in the history of the business. It's rare that a guy can be so bad on the mic that it actively detracts from his heat.

I don't know, I get why Truth was mad but he 1) Agreed to the match, he could have just as easily said no to John but didn't. 2) Went a little over board on the beating afterward.

I know the trigger warnings are ironic but tread carefully. Ironic trigger warnings lead to genuine trigger warnings and if we have too many of them then Anthony Burch will burst through the wall like the goddamn cool-aid man and steal all our testicles and spirit.

There is nothing wrong with genuine trigger warnings. They have a place and a purpose.

I liked him but John Morrison ranks very high on my list of Worst Talkers Ever. I actually found some of his mic work painfully bad. Like, Chris Benoit bad

I can forgive a bad segment that gave us heel Truth.

It's rare that a guy can be so bad on the mic that it actively detracts from his heat. He rarely had a decent face promo (or even to got the chance to do one), but he was awesome as a heel with the Palace of Wisdom stuff. I wish they'd kept that part of his gimmick instead of turning him into The Parkour Guy with flashy clothes.

Like, Chris Benoit bad I'm not sure anyone was worse on the mic than Benoit. "Silent, but violent"....the man's catchphrase referred to likening himself to a damned FART.
