I liked Nitro before it was cool to like Morrison.
Back when he used to that Ugh, Ugh, Uuuungh thing. |

I agree.
Sure his matches have been good, I just think there needs to be a slight change to his persona to get the fans fully behind him. |

I think he's getting the "slow build" treatment.

Problem with that is, they have changed nothing about him, not even slowly.
He still has the same entrance, same gear, same music, everything. If someone just switched on the TV after not watching for a few months, there's no way they would know he's a face. It's the same with MVP, they just turned him, but changed nothing about him. Now I'm not saying there needs to be a total gimmick overhaul, far from it, as I hate that, but there needs to be some subtle changes. New music would be a good start. And then a change of his coats, so they look less gay |

Nothing really changed about Shawn Michaels when her turned face other than he got turned on by Sid and when he came back he was a face.
The guy is having great matches, looking great in the ring and holding his own on the mic. If you cant be happy with that, then you're just a whiner. Crowds aren't going to start exploding for him over night. It takes time. Sure, they could do things a bit better, but this is the WWE, they could do a lot of things better. |

But at least when Shawn was turned it was by a top star, Morrison wasn't even really turned, he was on ECW the next night beating Evan Bourne acting like a heel again, he's just changed for the sake of it, that's what I don't like. There's still no reason to like him. When Sid turned on HBK, you were behind HBK because you hated Sid. This is like Ortiz turning for me, there's no reason for it. Yes his matches, are ok, personally, I think that it's still a tad to spotty with not enough contact in moves, things like the windmill leg drop are OTT and as already mentioned I think starship pain isn't a finisher. He needs to give me a turning point to care about him. Simply having good matches and acting more or less the same way won't cut it for me, as I never found him overly entertaining anyway |

I can see where you're coming from with the starship pain. I think it's a cool fresh new finisher, but it's a lot of flash maybe lacking in substance. But it's a move he hits at the end of a match so in a way it makes sense. Plus it can always be sold that the corkscrew in the moonsault gives it some added torque or whatever.
He does a great job selling injuries throughout the match, and tells a really good sotry every time. I love that springboard kick he does, it is a flashy yet extremely efficient move. I mean for fuck sake he's kicking a guy in the face with added leverage. And also that knee to the downed opponent is NASTY, if anything that should be his finished cuz the audience reacts to that more than anything. |

that goddamn knee is brutal. I actually thought he found his niche with the moonlight drive. that jump kick off the ropes is bad ass too. He just has a great ass move set.

Morrison should win matches with any move he wants. He's got the Starship Pain (awesome looking), Moonlight Drive (has been built well), The Chuck Morrison (pretty sweet), Nitro Blast (Superkick) and that vicious knee to the face.
