after watching a great match on monday night raw between the miz and john morrison it hit me that john morrison and shelton benjamin are very similar. both great athletes and both getting ? on by WWE. yea they both have had chances to be champion and its not like people didn't like them. john morrison is very over with the crowd right now more than the miz is. so how much longer do you think john morrison will be in WWE til they get tired of having him lose?

    SMH @ people like the Miz and Sheamus gettin put over, but Shelton Benjamin (one of the most athletically gifted wrestlers ever) gets treated like a ?

    Shelton was never good on the mic but he wouldve been an entertainin champion

    John Morrison is in the same boat as Shelton, pure athlete, all they have to do is trim his damn hair and get rid of those furry ass tights

    give him a new finisher and a new image and he could be the next Jeff Hardy.... minus all the drug ?

    well taker never had mic skills really so the whole mic skill schtick is OVERRATED in my book. Sure it's nice to have but not necessary to be a world champ. I also believe Morrison has slightly more charisma personality wise than Shelton it just doesnt translate well over the mic.

    I don't think JoMo has been around long enough to start comparing him to Shelton. Sure he lacks mic skills but if they really wanted to push him they would. I think they are just taking their time. He looks more like a Jeff Hardy situation to me. He'll win it eventually.

    Yeah Kinda, but as bad as Morrison is on the mic, Shelton makes him look like The Rock in comparison.

    Really? I liked taker on the mic when he was the American bad ass Taker. Not the when he's on the zombie ? though.

    But yeah Morrison has more charisma then Shelton, but I still don't see him being WWE Champion though. Maybe a one time world champ on smackdown, maybe.

    Both are phenomenal in ring performers but their personalities are a bit lacking. Shelton has championship ability skill wise but when he talks he's monotone and it's nothing most really pay attention to. Morrison has a bit more ability on the mic but he doesn't exude that "something" that'll capture the crowds interest. The Rock wasn't a great wrestler but he was one of the best on the microphone and oozed personality, charisma and confidence. If you have good mic skills you'll move up the ranks faster than if you're a great in ring performer. Guys like this Alberto Del Rio will be a top heel in the near future because he's exudes that "it" factor.
