John Morrison defeated Randy Orton last week on Monday Night Raw, punching his ticket into next month’s Money in the Bank ladder match. After serving as the cornerman/hype artist/tag partner for the former “Mr. Money in the Bank” The Miz only a few months ago, Morrison has a chance to finally vault himself into a new tier of stardom.
Morrison has made a career out of capitalizing upon opportunities. He was a co-winner on Season 3 of Tough Enough in 2002, catapulting him onto WWE’s worldwide platform. Whether he was Eric Bischoff’s apprentice as Johnny Nitro, highlighting reality television star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi at WrestleMania XXVII or bumping and selling a decade later at WrestleMania against Bad Bunny, Morrison always brought a mentality and work ethic that has no off switch.
