Supposing that this is true, I don't blame him at all for not being high on Morrison, albeit for different reasons. Liking Skip Sheffield to that extent is completely asenine, though.

 

[Dark Kent]

LOL I honestly find this story about Morrison and Vince to be true for real. I honestly do believe that Vince would be like that, lol. But uh this whole Skip Sheffield thing??? So basically he sees Skip being even more popular than Orton??? Hmmmm.....

 

[Kratosx23]

Well, to be fair, any other wrestler in the company would be more over than Orton if you gave them the exact same forced 5 year push.

this.

 

[Dark Kent]

Oh yeah that's a no brainer. But I wasn't speaking more about Orton as much as I was his popularity. Skip Sheffield rivaling Cena for pops at shows??? SKIP SHEFFIELD???? I just can't see it.

 

[Noel]

Well we all know Vince has some kind of love for (you know what? I'm gonna quote Jersey Shore here) Juiceheads and Gorillas. Skip Sheffield obviously fits that bill.

Morrison is a gymnast, Sheffield is a bloke. No wonder Vince prefers Sheffield, who wants to watch a gymnast fight?

Yip Yip Yip, what it do!?

I do. Morrison in the ring > most of the roster.

Then by this logic shouldn't Chris Jericho be a 10 time world champ for man-handling Goldberg

He is a six time champion, which is more than most men can say... I also think this story is bullshit, but your reasoning is flawed.

maybe i should have put /joking after the sentence

 

[NJ88]

That doesn't make sense, wrestlers aren't real fighters, they are pro wrestlers. He lost respect for Morrison because he didn't challenge Batista to a real fight? I highly doubt that's true.

Skip Sheffield could benefit tremendously from a name change and a big push. The guy is huge, intimidating, and believable in the role of a legit ass-kicker. Casual fans aren't going to look at him like a joke. He fits the role.

Sheffield was impressive in the SummerSlam elimination tag match last year. He worked very well as the enforcer for Nexus. Again, he has a presence that can't really be explained. I remember thinking that when everyone was jumping all over Tarver's nuts, for the idea that he looked scary. Skip has the same effect, albeit with the added benefit of about 100 pounds of lean muscle mass on top of that.

Yes, Vince likes his muscleheads. But there's also a good reason for that. Vince knows that history shows that people will PAY good money to see those muscleheads at the top of the card. It's not 100%, but it's been successful way too many times to just ignore. Sheffield is built like a tank, and the casual audience will react to that with awe and intrigue.

Again, if they give Skip the right push (like Goldberg, Lesnar, or Diesel), and you've got a guy that will sell some tickets. People are generally more inclined to pay to see supercharged, musclebound powerhouses than armbars and leglocks.

That says more about the state of the roster than JoMo.
