Morrison also bragged about being thrown out of a bar on Twitter. Getting thrown out is unprofessional enough, but to brag about it? In this day and age, where there's a crackdown on that type of shit in WWE, if you're doing it you're screwing yourself over.

I think it's a combination of losing his "man card" and Melina just being such an uncontrollable bitch that she's screwing his chances. Whether it's fair or not for Morrison to be punished for something she's doing is moot. He's with her and is proud of it. And let's not forget the snub he gave to Trish at Mania. Unprofessional and again a nod to Melina.

So outside of him not improving (which I believe is true), he's also highly unprofessional and bows to the whim of Melina. So there's definitely some legitimate reasons for him not getting the push.

Not getting the push is one thing, being "turned on" by the IWC is another.

Well, I only care about their relationship because it affects his in-ring work and his push. I'm pissed that he's pissing away a possible push largely for something he could change. I can't speak for the rest of the IWC, but that's why I "turned on" him.

Yeah the thing with Trish at Mania really irked me. And I agree 100% that someone's relationship is their business and Morrison can let his girl fuck whoever she wants. But when it affects you professionally, especially in what was arguably one of the biggest spots in his career, then there's a problem.

But to keep with XL's theme, I'm sure it didn't help that he snubbed Trish, an IWC darling.

Some interesting thoughts on Morrison posted in here. Haven't we known about the dude being the kind to let his girlfriend fuck whoever she wants for a while, though? Also, that has no effect on my thoughts towards him. Morrison might be into that sort of thing, for all I know. Also, I kind of wish he'd let me fuck Melina.

Morrison still gets things resembling pushes. People act as if the guy isn't made to look like he deserves to be in the main event. For your average fan, Morrison is still one of the "rising stars" of today's era.

What "things resembling pushes"? When has he been "made to look like he deserves to be in the ME"?

The one WWE Title shot they gave him - which should have been HUGE given it was against his former partner, a man that had so much heat he made a rookie (Riley) into a sensation for a couple months whilst fueding with him - was on an episode of Raw. They didn't even give him the shot at the Rumble, where the Title/undercard matches mean squat.

He lost to R-Truth when he returned from an injury caused by Truth. When does that ever happen? That's "bad" storytelling. He also lost to Christian around the same time and Christian has hardly been built up as a "legitimate Main Eventer" himself. He takes the fall in every Tag/Multi-man match they put on.

He may look "good" when losing but in no way, shape or form are WWE presenting him as a guy that should be looking at a ME spot.

And really, I have no issue with that. It's Vince's company he can push who he likes. I find more annoyance in the "I now dislike JoMo cos his woman is a ho/crazy/deluded and he let's her get away with it" line of thought.

One thing that Paul Heyman was always very good at when it came to his wrestlers was he hid the negatives and accentuated the positives. With John Morrison, they haven't really been doing that, and its hurt him tremendously. The guy can't talk as a face. He's shown that as a cocky heel he can talk - he's no CM Punk or Miz or even Randy Orton, but he can cut a decent promo as a heel. But as a face, he's bland, boring and uninteresting, and he should be nowhere near a microphone.

What Morrison does best is put on fast paced, exciting matches. He should be showcased as such. Don't put him anywhere near a microphone. Let him be what Rob Van Dam was for ECW - a show off, cocky face, who goes out and does amazing moves in the ring and kicks people's asses. All action, very little talk.

I also agree that he needs a new look. The Morrison thing is kind of stupid considering the age of the audience, and it's also kind of stupid for those of us who DO get it, too. He's a rock star who doesn't play a fucking instrument. Yeah, THAT makes sense. His glittery pants and those gay frilly boots do nothing for his image, and neither does that horrendous furry coat he walks out in. That shit worked when he was a heel in MNM, but he's supposed to be "cool" now, and that attire is NOT cool. Look at the "cool characters" in movies and TV. None of them wear anything closely resembling what Morrison wears. He doesn't connect with the audience because there's nothing relatable about his current character.

They need to keep him off the mic, change his look and possibly his entrance music, maybe have him cut that ridiculous hair down a bit, and put him in the ring against opponents who can really "go" with him on his level.

He traded the fur coat for a leather one, that's something, right?
