Has Johnny Impact Run Been A Failure?

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

Dude came in with a lot of fanfare and was one of the hottest wrestlers on the indies before he came to Impact. Yet, he's been there almost 2 years and really nothing has happened with him

He's sort of been hot and cold and never really have any momentum. The stuff with him and Cage has gone on a good min and he's now heel which is better for him but we shall see

[OVO 40 hunched over like he 80]

Yes in my opinion because all I remember from Johnny is when Aries killed BFG’s ending.

[Ben Wyatt]

They've never really seemed to know what to do with him on a consistent basis.

[Final Countdown Jones]

Mundo's a dude who needs some strong guidance to shine in the long term and I don't think he's getting that in TNA. He's a pale imitator of himself and it's weird.

John Morrison with the Miz and the dirt sheet is good.
Johnny Mundo In LU is good.
Johnny Impact is just a guy with nice abs and a terrible finishing maneuver,

[Deleted]

Compared to every other iteration of himself big failure.

And there is a constant thread in his career he has had when people talk about his best stuff and they aint with him in Impact and the difference was almost instantenous the minute he showed up in Impact.

Jomo and Miz were better than prime New Day.

But when he was in singles competition he was still cutting terrible promos(Mr Ziggles anyone?).

This is gonna sound mean but he needs stuff written for him or to play off from a stronger performer, Miz, to shine. Left by himself he sucks.

Be quiet or he is going to steal your lunch

I wish I could find just the portion but go watch the final part of Ultima Lucha Tres and there is a video that plays right before the main event called The Johnny Mundo Story and it is everything being discussed in this thread.

You watch that and then look at him at Impact and it is like two different people and you see what Dejoseph's writing does for him and Impact shows what it does without him.

[Deleted]

he's mediocre without DeJoseph

He’s a better wrestler but he’s like Sandow in that regard, he needs to read from a script.

Not so much he needs to read from a script he can adlib just fine...he did it in season 4 against Kobra Moon and it is a bit infamous amongst LU fans because he did it without telling her and it throws her promo completely off.

It is proper direction , someone that understands his character and Dejoseph is the only that understands that.

He needs someone to write him a character essentially and understand it

Is Starship Pain still his finisher, and does it still miss every single time?

[Deleted]

Starship pain is such a stupid name...I prefer him calling it the end of the world anyways idk why it looks like shit in Impact but in LU he hit it fairly consistently well

So far Johnny hasnt been near as bad as Liberace Sandow(that was so awful and probably one of the worst gimmicks in wrestling history).

[Fauxnaki]

Maybe it would of gone better if they didn't call him JOHNNY IMPACT
