But what fun is a wrestling message board without speculation?

It's gotta be the abs.

go fuck a pig oink oink

I doubt it's just you, but since this is no longer a black and white medium, it makes little sense to try and apply a black and white mentality simply because you don't like Technicolor.

And WWE may not be trying to generate "tweeners," but a lot of what makes one is fan reception, so if the people here ain't buying it as a face push, that should be an indication.

As a matter of discussion, it did seem like the crowd was cheering Morrison during his Shelton match, but it wasn't live, so there's really no telling what was really going on. I'll let you guys know when I attend the MAY 19th(:eek:) taping.

Punk casually strolling on by was the highlight of that clip.

After Morrison won the match, they cut to a woman applauding Morrison for his victory. Well, it could have been editted from a different part of the show, or even from another night, but to me, that implies the WWE are trying to send the message that it is alright to cheer John Morrison.

Yeah, what he said.

Yeah, but Morrison has abs.

It should also be noted that John Morrison is banging Melina again. Instant face. :y:

Those two should be re-united on-screen, I think. I still wish they would do some sort of Superstars feud between The Miz & Maryse and John Morrison & Melina. Put the US Title on The Miz, and the IC Title on Morrison.

<font color=goldenrod>I can't see Morrison winning the big belt anytime soon...but I think a lengthy IC title reign should put him in position to be a MITB favorite next year.</font>

Apparently a big part of why Morrison was turned face is because The Undertaker is going in for knee surgery, and with Jeff Hardy's contract status unknown, they really only had CM Punk.

He's definitely a face now after watching Superstars.

ARE HIS ABS HEEL OR FACE

His abs have always been over with the crowd.

It was a bit weird watching SmackDown!. Morrison just sort of turned face by default a week ago, and Charlie Haas just sort of turned heel by default that show. A sweet face finish for Morrison, though.

I never saw Morrison as a heel anyway, its not like he fucked corpses, had sex with the bosses daughter when she was underage, or hit the owner over the head with a bedpan.

Yeah another obvious indicator that he's a face now other than fighting 2 heels in 2 matches, is that he doesn't do as long of a slo-mo thing in his ring entry anymore which sucks.

At least he still has the slo-mo thing and hasn't been relegated to do the whole "spaz out at the top of the ramp" thing that faces do.

Yeah, the slow-mo should never leave.
