Ah, so basically, 'Hey sorry guys, we know that angle was the s**ts so here's Austin vs. Punk, are we sweet?'
Let me guess, John Morrison took the fall.
It's such a shame that he gets buried for being a nice guy, yet they had no problem letting a thug like JBL run a muck (lol at getting your ass knocked the f**k out by Joey Styles as well)
If he'd cracked a few heads backstage he'd be the WWE champion.
This is a guy the fans could have got behind instead of Alberto "no crowd reaction" Del Rio.
Is he really the first guy to be pussywhipped by a skank?
Should do well in really well in TNA, he's a level above Ken Anderson.
I don't think it's the fact that everybody hates Melina more the fact that he has the backstage rep as a puss (which matters to Vince because he's a moron).If he wasn't whipped by Melina who everyone hates he'd probably be doing alright. I agree with most of your sentiments though, I'm not super high on the guy, but I've seen worse wrestlers hold major titles.
Just on your JBL point, is there truth to the rumor that he put a live badger in Miz's car when he first started out? Also it's funny to see him back pedal now when he talks about treating him like shit now "I was only trying to see how badly he wanted it, I always thought he had talent." The guy seems like a massive tool, in the Hardcore Holly class.

I'm actually not super high on the guy either when you look at talent across the industry but when we're just talking the "WWE universe" then it's a no brainier. There is no question in my mind that the fans would get behind him on a push and he does work well in the ring for WWE style.
The live badger story is probably true. I guess he had to find a new and creative ways to haze rookies. Threatening to rape people (although under the legal definition he did) soaping up peoples asses and fingering in the showers. A real low life piece of shit if you ask me.
Who gives a shit about his backstage rep? He's got the rep of a nice guy who's not confrontational. Some people think he's a puss. So what?I think he is seen as a puss as there are numerous stories of Melina sleeping with other wrestlers, and Morrison doing nothing, and its not just VKM who thinks he is a pussy

So you can rape someone backstage or shoot (not stiff) on someone in the ring and that's no problem but give someone the cold shoulder and you're done? Well, Rhino got fired for breaking a pot plant so double standards are no problem in this company.Every time he seems to get a push Melina pisses someone off and he gets buried again. This time it was her giving Trish the cold shoulder.
As I said, he's not the greatest character, but worse have held world titles. He gets a decent crowd reaction, even when he's doing nothing in the mid card.

Melina is fired she should be a non issue. The whole thing is too complex and I don't really know what's going on so I'd rather ignore it. One minute Morrison is pimping out Melina to half the roster, the next he is pussy whipped.
As for Morrison as a character. No one else in the company who had been given such little narrative is that over so I completely disagree. He would also be the fourth best worker on the main roster behind Danielson, Punk and Christian. That doesn't really say much for the WWE but that's a side issue. It's just another guy who the ball has been dropped on.
You can't have a PG trainwreck.also the WWE Legends reality show looks like it could be good trainwreck tv...depending who they put in there.
