I read recently that Morrison in fact wanted to go to TNA and had not resigned. He is not advertised for the WWE tour of Japan and afaik his contract runs out in about a week.

Re: Official WrestleMania Thread

Well something has certainly happened to change the situation. He went from jobbing like Barry Horowitz on a weekly basis to winning matches and getting a title shot at a big four PPV. This isn't the sign of someone on his way out.

i would this. goes to the heart of "fans just want to see entrances" and maybe a couple moves.

Meltzer was talking about this a few days ago, how normally you would bury a guy on his way out but WWE is oppositeland right now so they push him.

Or, they are trying to entice him to stay. Why, I have no idea.

Big Show corpsing

I thought this was hilarious. Even he knows that this feud is a little bit stupid.

Have fun.

Also bring a sign that says "I picked The Godfather 76th in an all-time wrestling draft" so we know how to spot you.

They see a lot of value in Morrison. He gets to go out there a lot, job out and still remain over with a lot of the crowd cos he is pretty and is relatively good at jumping.

And yeah, the WWE when they are trying to keep talent they push them harder than any other point in their career. Jeff was given a WHC run, pretty sure Punk wasnt signed when he got to go out and say whatever he wanted to start the MITB build, JoMo got to win like his first match of the year against the ****ing US Champ of all people.

It makes a lot of sense, its just funny to consider that if Morrison signs the dotted line then he will probably insta go back to weekly jobbing. It just comes down to if they are going out and the company doesnt care or they 100% cant change their mind or if they are going out and they want them to stay.

And yeah, TNA would have probably pushed him to the moon, but being a WWE worker who shifts a lot of merch, is never short on a lunch and gets weekly pay checks even if he is lying down to get them makes a ****load more money than almost every TNA talent. He probably out earns everyone but Hogan, Bischoff, Sting, Hardy, Angle, maybe AJ and maybe RVD in his current role and he would likely have gotten a good bump in his downside guarantee and bonuses if he was smart about negotiating a new WWE contract.

Re: Official WrestleMania Thread

Just from a booking standpoint, I can see them royally ****ing up everything on this card...but I still have a hard time imagining that we won't have some good action to watch tonight.

By the way, while you're anxiously awaiting wrestling, come play the new Sheep game. Yes, the one I already advertised once. And also bump the thread when you do in order to get the haters mad.

Re: Official WrestleMania Thread

ALLLLLLLBERTO via schmozz
Henry obv
Miz/Truth win!
Team Orton obviously. Ziggler sells RKO by bouncing into the concession stand.
Morrison sprains knee on entrance, Ryder subs in and wins the title.
Who cares (Beth obv)

Re: Official WrestleMania Thread

Punk over ADR in the match of the night
Big Show wins, then D-Bry cashes in MITB
Miz/Truth because SuperAids can't work together
Team Barrett (this one I'm not really sure about)
Ryder somehow wins the belt even though he's not in the match
Eve because lol WWE
