He only lost on ECW and RAW if I remember,so I don't think of him as a jobber.One thing though I hope for is that there not splitting Miz/Morrison anytime soon,because this tag division needs those guys imo.

TBH when hardy got drafted to ecw, it was inevitable that hardy would win the ecw title and eventually feud with morrison. i see the feud happening after hardy and mark henry have a match at the next ppv

I've never seen Morrison as a jobber, maybe he's had a couple losses recently but him and Miz have been on a roll all year long.

Personally the feud I've been wanting to see since Matt got traded to ECW is Matt/Miz n' Morrison in some sort of triple threat feud over the belt.

Since the moderator jus close the thread i just made about Morrison, i´ll just copy all the things i wrote about him in the other thread:

I know that this is probably the 100th Morrison thread this month, so please don´t flame me, but i have to state some things about this guy.
I´m the bigest Morrison mark, but i promised myself to never get my hopes up in any wrestler, i was a huge mark of Shelton, saying to everyone that he would ME a year after his debut(and look where he is now), i started watching wrestling in 2000, and my favorite wrestler was Edge, and i had to wait 6 years for Edge to get into the ME.
But with Morrison is diferent, i had never been so impressed with a wrestler as i am with him.

During the last months, in every single week, if Morrison is in a match, that match is MOTN or in many cases MOTW, look for example the last weeks:
* Morrison vs Bourne(ECW) - MOTN easily
* Rey&Bourne vs Miz&Morrison(RAW) - MOTN
* 8 man tag team match(ECW) - MOTN
* Morrison vs Matt Hardy(ECW) - MOTW
* Morrison&Miz&Chavo vs Finlay&Hardy&Bourne(ECW) - MOTN
* Miz vs Morrison vs Hardy vs Finlay(ECW) - Top 3 best tv matches of 2008 easily
* Morrison vs Jeff Hardy(Smackdown) - MOTW
* Morrison vs Batista(Smackdown) - MOTN or MOTW

This is just in the last times, if you **** his MITB and Rumble performances, his 2 matches with CM Punk, the extreme rules tag match with Dreamer and Delaney, the tag matches against Wang Yang and Moore and Kane&Undertaker.

So the guy is probably the best tv wrestler of 2008, since he had almost no PPV appearences.

Another thing is how he changed his style, he´s now a much more agrssive and ground wrestler, but he stile uses some of his aerial moves, for example against Batista, since Batista is such a bigger and stronger guy, Morrison fought him with lots of aerial moves, and the match was great. Which means he can wrestle a good match against any type of oponent.

His mic skills have improved a lot, and since he added that sarcastic tone to his voice all his promos have become real good.

Then the live Dirt Sheet, i know that tons of guys here didn´t found it funny, but the live crowd sure enjoyed it, specially the first one, when we could hear the crowd laughing really loud.

It´s true that he can´t get a good reaction from the crowd, but seriously why should the regular fans booo a guy like him, the regular crowd has no reasons to hate a guy like him at all, he is such a great wrestler but he don´t go around kicking the heads of all the legends of the WWE or sleeping with the wife of a dead fan favorite, if the guy is such a good wrestler and don´t do heelish things, why should the regular crowd booo him at all????

And on top of all this things, he has great look and gimmick, with some great catch frases.
Many people here may not like Morrison, but with the facts i stated here is dificult to say that this guy isn´t good.

I don´t want him to win any world title in the WWE soon because he isn´t ready, but in maybe 2 years i can see him holding one of the 2 major belts.

So my point is, if Morrison don´t screw up, i don´t think how the WWE can stop this guy from reaching the top???

Other mid carders that should be ME all had problems, in their way to the top: Kennedy with his injuries, Shelton with his lack of charisma and mic skills, MVP was pushed too fast(in just 6 months with the company he had a match at WM, he started his WWE career feuding with Kane and Undertaker), Jeff Hardy...every one pretty much know the reasons behind the fact that he isn´t already a world champion, and we can go on to the other upper mid carders.

I know that much of his success in 2008 is splited up with The Miz, but do you guys agree with the points i stated about Morisson and his recent acomplishements????

P.S. Sorry for the bad english and the extensive text

I've never seen Morrison as a jobber either. fact is the bookers put him in some match just to make his opponent look good and great ( Jeff Hardy return to SM, Hardy reunion as tag team, evan bourne and Mysterio etc.... ) cause he can sell a match and got great skills.

btw i think that these days some peoples ( lot of girls ) cheers him a lttle bit.

People don't know how to class a "jobber". Jobbers is what you call Snitsky, Funaki, S2H, and etc. Not someone who is a former ECW Champion like John Morrison

As a tag team they've gone as far as they can. It's time (and has been for months) for Morrison to go for the ECW Championship and for The Miz to go to the mid-card of Smackdown.

I still can't believe they didn't seperate them at the draft.

Morrison is not even close to being a jobber. People throw that word around everytime someone gets few losses in a row.
