John Morrison: The Rise of the Shaman!

Jeff Hardy may have a rock star-like ovation, but no one looks more like a rock star than “The Guru of Greatness” John Morrison.

Once known as Johnny Nitro – fetching coffee for Mr. McMahon – Morrison is now one of the hottest superstars in the WWE.

His rise to greatness started in the summer of 2007, when Morrison defeated CM Punk, one-on-one, for the vacant ECW Title.

As the ECW Champion, Morrison dropped his paparazzi theme for something more fitting for a Shaman, because it “Ain’t No Make Believe.” Which, due to the double negatives it therefore is make believe?

According to his interview with WWE Magazine, his slow motion entrances, John Morrison feels, is a suspension in time and space so that normal people can grasp the boundaries that a Shaman can go.

Also a master tag team specialist, teamed with The Miz to become a two-time Slammy Award winning, two-time Dirty Award winning, longest reigning WWE Tag Team Champions in recent history, and also capturing the World Tag Team Championships – The Miz and John Morrison, with such
prestigious accolades, were the dominate tag team force since the days of Edge and Christian.

However, the two parted ways as a result of the draft. The Miz went to RAW, while Morrison would make his new home on Friday Nights. Morrison states that he is beyond good and evil, and after his face change that statement couldn’t be truer.

The Guru has recently been on a winning streak, defeating the likes of Evan Bourne, Shelton Benjamin, Charlie Haas, Umaga, and, as seen on Smackdown, the World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk. He even came close to defeating Edge in possibly one of the greatest matches in Smackdown history.

With Morrison pinning the World Heavyweight Champion, he is entitled to challenge CM Punk for a title match. Morrison has even asked GM Teddy Long’s permission to face the winner of the Jeff Hardy-CM Punk title match. Even though Long gave no definitive answer, as the Shaman of the Palace of Wisdom – it is time for John Morrison to immortalize himself as a future WWE Hall of Famer by finally becoming the World Heavyweight Champion.
