Former WWE star John Morrison recently appeared as a guest on the The MMA Hour for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling. During the discussion, Morrison commented on a potential return to WWE:
“I hate that place. But sure, if they called me, I’d go back. (Laughs). Why do (I) hate it? Because it’s your dream. It’s what I’ve watched as a kid, and then you show up and you want to live your dream and do the things that you’ve dreamed of doing, but it’s a bastardized version of what you want to do. That was my experience. It’s not for everybody. I kind of exaggerated the hate thing to make a little joke, but sure, I’d go back. I tried not to burn any bridges. I love the roster there, I love a lot of the people there.”
Morrison expressed interest in AEW:
“I love the roster of AEW, Tony I like a lot. Vince, I actually like a lot too. I like all the minds in professional wrestling. The place that I go next, I really want to have a good, honest talk with whoever’s in charge, whether it’s Vince, Tony, the number one in charge of WWE-UFC, the merger, or Nick Khan, or whoever that might be, and find out exactly what they have planned for me, and hopefully they’re honest. If I don’t like that, I’ll probably not go, and if I do, I will. That’s more important than the money for me right now.”
Morrison also predicted “a bunch of guys” will be getting released from WWE soon, click here to check out his comments.
