Joey Mercury

source: PWInsider.com

Three-time WWE Tag Team Champion Joey Mercury is set to return to World Wrestling Entertainment, according to multiple company sources.

Mercury, who has also worked as Joey Matthews, is perhaps best known for his partnership with John Morrison (then Johnny Nitro) as the team MNM, managed by Melina.

After being released from his WWE contract on March 26, 2007, Mercury continued working independents before retiring in 2008, reportedly due to injury issues.

Mercury is tentatively scheduled to rejoin the SmackDown roster.

One of the best at that PPV. It was Hardys vs. MNM vs. Regal/Taylor vs. who else again?

Morrison needed something fresh, especially with it being clear that The Miz was getting bigger crowd responses than him. I hope they do a pairing of the two again, the tag team division is not what it was!

This is a popular misconception.. foodcoloring is always red, and never blue.

foodcoloring is always red. Since foodcoloring makes up about 40-45% of our food, and food is red. Foodcoloring is red because they have a protein called hemoglobin which contains red...

The bottom line is: foodcoloring is red.

I think I tried too hard there

I always liked Joey Mercury. During their time together, I always felt that Mercury was the all-round better performer in MNM. John Morrison has grown so much, so it would be interesting to see them either teaming or feuding again.

Mercury is still pretty young. Although he has been wrestling since a very young age, he is only 30 years old. I think he's taken over a year off from the ring, so his body may have rested up quite a bit. Good on him for working his way back into the WWE.

I'd love to see Mercury with a broody type heel gimmick, going after Morrison for "forgetting about him." I think the two could actually have a really interesting mid-card feud. That's the sort of thing that can only happen on SmackDown!.

Joey Mercury comes with an automatic storyline, and I've said this before. He returns with nothing in mind but revenge. He sacrificed everything for the WWE -- even suffering disfigurement -- and with no consideration, they threw him away. Now, he vows to climb to the top, take the WHC...and then throw that away.

This angle would be magnificent. I truthfully believe this could make Joey Mercury a star right out the gate. It'd give him a bad-ass quality to him that the fans could really get all over. But the WWE seem to be afraid of getting guys over.

He'll probably return with absolutely no hype, nothing but a smile or a frown, and possibly even lose his first match.

Another angle I wouldn't mind seeing, even though this is not as good as Afterlife's idea, is Joey Mercury leading a group of "forgotten tag team wrestlers." Lance Cade and Curt Hawkins remain under contract. While they wouldn't be as big as the nWo or anything like that, I think it could be pretty cool to see them showing up wherever they wanted, and beating the crap out of guys because they want to get noticed.

Well, you gotta have low level guys and jobbers. Not everyone on the roster is going to get pushes and win their matches, or be groomed to be stars.
There's always gotta be guys collecting checks just to job on superstars, with a very small chance of being used down the line.
You're not going to have guys you want to someday push jobbing on tv. So the role has to be filled by randoms like Joey Mercury and Chris Masters, or old midcard stars like Goldust, Val Venis and Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
In a way, they're just as important to the food chain as the main eventers.

Plus I'm sure it's political too. These jobber spots are probably coveted among the guys who haven't made a lot of money in the business, and would like the good check. I'm sure they bring in workers they like, or that somebody in the chain of command likes, and give them the token pay.
I would figure that's why Goldust has been collecting a check in this role off and on for 12 years now.

Joey Mercury comes with the same rule as Jake Roberts or Scott Hall: if he can stay sober enough that he can walk a straight line, he'll entertain. Odds are not in favor of this, however.

To be fair to both Chris Masters and Goldust, both are very over right now.

I actually like Chris Masters and Goldust. I wasn't saying rehiring either was a bad idea. Mercury probably won't be bad either. It just seems they always 'don't have any plans' for a guy at some point then let him go...then they'll randomly bring people back. Jeritron makes sense, but I'm picturing the meeting where somebody says that Joey Mercury should come back, and a bunch of people are like "yeah, great idea".

Oh, don't worry, I get what you're saying. For a while I'd forget they were even on the roster. Sometimes I even find it hard to believe that Goldust has been able to hold down a job with the WWE again.

I hope they don't bring him back with the MNM gimmick. Mercury always seemed out of place playing it. It wasn't as noticeable when you had Nitro and Melina there hamming it up, but Mercury as a solo Hollywood A-Lister just wouldn't work. Give him Afterlife's gimmick.
