Jomo has stolen aj moves. AJ has said that jomo is unoriginal and need to create his own moves. He's a poor man's AJ Styles without the mat game or presence or the mic skills.
Aj on jomo:
But there is that one dude. What's his name? I'm
like, good grief, this guy does
everyone else's move and hasn't come up with one. He's a heck of an athlete. Morrison. Yeah, I've seen him do a lot of Low Ki's moves. He does my Spiral Tap. I was like, "Man, this guy watches a lot of tape." But he does them well, so I can't say anything bad about him. He does them well. He's heck of an athlete.

The 'stealing of moves' is a ridiculous thing to say by anyone tbh. Morrison hasnt 'stolen' any of AJs moves.

I also dont see how he's a 'poor mans AJ Styles' when he's the one in the biggest wrestling company in the world...and AJ Styles isn't.

Morrison does a Pele Kick and now he's a poor man's AJ Styles? Nah bro.

Don't get me wrong, I acknowledge the fact that John Morrison is an untalented sack of shit with no charisma or mic skills as much as the next thinking person, but he's not a poor man's anything, he's just a bad wrestler with no creativity.

Is there really any originality in movesets anymore? It's not like people are coming up with never been done before moves on a regular basis. It's pretty stupid when people try to say so and so stole a said move from so and so because it implies that that guy was the first guy to do the move which is hardly ever the case. AJ is in TNA and Morrison is in WWE, can really say Morrison is in anyway anyone's "poor man" unless you're referring to a former WWE wrestler.

I am saying this as not really being a fan or hater of either....

It just sounds to me AJ is jealous the Morrison is in the WWE and he is not. I don't care that hes a ME in TNA he would trade places with JoMo in a second if he had the chance.
:lmao


im guessing you don't know much about AJ.

This.

When watching Morrison I don't see any similarities to AJ at all. The guy in WWE who's most similar to AJ is Evan Bourne. Morrison and AJ are both very good wrestlers (neither are "spot monkeys" at all as both wrestlers' matches are paced extremely well and both sell really good... you don't need to be a technical wizard to be a good wrestler) but completely different in terms of their high flying styles.

What moves he stole? morrison uses aerials mixed with Kong fu .. kong fu has a fixed set of moves..you can't steal moves from kong fu.. you learn them ... plus aj styles is just a loser .. he was hoping he can get morrison's spot at the WWE but obviously morrison signed a new contract....TNA forever lol

Just to start AJ is one hundred times the wrestler Morrison will be. Morrison is all flash and no substance , where AJ is a well rounded world beater. AJ isn't even a big fish in a small pond though , he's a consistent midcard wrestler in TNA and very fustrated with the current regime. Morrison is probably leaving WWE , so that argument of Morrison wrestling in the top promotion isn't really valid either . Both arguments are pretty flawed (If Morrison leaves of course).

I don't like the argument of the whole stealing moves thing but all Morrison did was throw together flashy moves of popular Indy wrestlers with no substance inbetween.

Calling a wrestler a poor man's somebody is just moronic , so now everytime a guy will debut , he'll have to create every singles move of his arsenal to get credit?By this logic AJ would be a poor man's RVD then and RVD a poor man's HBK and etc WTF?

AJ is okay, he's probably TNA's best worker but dude is terrible outside the ring. He can't cut promos, he has no charisma but his matches have high replay value because they are exciting. JoMo, if allowed to be himself, could be at least as popular as RVD was.
At the end of the day AJ is a spot monkey that works in a company that appreciates that style, JoMo is a spot monkey in a company that prefers ring psychology & larger than life presence. AJ wouldn't be better off in the E, they would bury him and AJ would be pissed and he would quit. Morrison could go to TNA and win the world title...that's the difference.

He'd need a character first, there was once a time when a spot monkey could be Main Eventer in TNA, but that hasn't been the case since Hogan and Bischoff came in. One of the first things they did when they came in was have Flair work with Style on the mic and gave him the nature boy gimmick, I still think that would have worked if AJ hadn't been so much against it.

Anyway if Jomo goes to TNA he won't win the World Title, more likely he'd put in the X-Division and have a feud in Aries, who at least has some chance at moving up the card because he has character.

I've actually heard AJ Styles is the poor mans John Morrison, which is laughable. Morrison offers a lot in the ring and so does AJ. They are similar when it comes to mic skills. Being that they both do poorly on the mic.

LOL if anything Morrison is a God'a AJ Styles. Morrison is far superior to AJ in everything, moveset, in ring skills, actual matches, charisma, mic skills, presence, look. AJ is a midcarder in any good company in his rightful position, Morrison's rightful position is a Main Eventer. I used to watch TNA, I've seen AJ wrestle, I've seen his ridiculous Flair gimmick where he was as bad of a talker as Evan Bourne and I've seen his bad technical wrestling that isn't on the level of Morrison's and that's Morrison's weakest style of wrestling.

Aj is decent at best from what I've seen and WWE shouldn't waste more than 50gs to sign him. He's not worth it.
