Need some info on Matt Morgan
So what's the deal with this guy? one.....why in the freaking world did WWE ever let him go?

Also, why was he Cornettes lacky for so long? Was he working on his in-ring skills? Injury? Was it just the plan all along to use baby steps (which I am not against)

This guy seems to be the absolute prototype for the 5 tool superstar. He is a good speaker, got great size and doesnt come off as some cocky greasy idiot.

I demand answers !!!!!

Re: Need some info on Matt Morgan
In WWE, he was green as fuck and I believe he had a lot more less, couldn't move around nearly as well..

I don't know what he did between WWE and TNA but he's much improved. He needs to stay with that cocky gimmick he's got.

Im pretty sure he wen't to Japan like alot of WWE superstars when they want to improve after being released. It did wonders for him

I found a poor man once
He was the age of fifty-three
He spoke about the government
And the thought of being free
What good does us reason if we fail to see?
What good does us freedom if we fail to be free

Re: Need some info on Matt Morgan
IN WWE he wasn't as much of a monster because the WWE star is bigger than the TNA star on average (in size) In TNA he is a legit monster. Much improved in ring and good on the mic. He'll be used greatly in TNA

Re: Need some info on Matt Morgan
What I meant was.. I think he's in better "ring shape" now that just being huge. It looks like he's lost some mass..

Perhaps you are thinking of Lesnar?

I think Matt Morgan was released by the WWE.


Thank you wikipedia.
Quote:


Matt Morgan made his re-debut to WWE on April 21, 2005, with a new gimmick of a stuttering big-man who is defensive over his speech disorder. He allied himself with Carlito Caribbean Cool and became his "backup"; he helped Carlito defeat The Big Show at Judgment Day by delivering a F-5. This partnership ended when Carlito was drafted to RAW and subsequently Morgan was released by WWE on July 5, 2005.

New Japan Pro Wrestling (2005)

Matt Morgan toured with New Japan Pro Wrestling in late 2005, defeating Yuji Nagata in his debut match. He was being pushed as a "monster gaijin" and along with Brock Lesnar, was expected to become one of NJPW's top foreign wrestlers, but plans for this were abandoned when Matt Morgan decided to leave NJPW to go to All Japan Pro Wrestling.

Europe (2006)

Matt Morgan also worked for NWE Wrestling in Italy and Rings of Europe in Austria, where he participated as the Monster Heel in a 20 Men Rumble Match. He and Joe Legend became allies but were unable to defeat Austrian Hero Big Van Walter in the end. He's also wrestled in Englands famous TTYL promotion as Teddy the bumbling tiger. Inbetween gigs at TTYL and NWE he worked as European Doink Le Clown.

All Japan Pro Wrestling (2005-2006)

Morgan debuted in All Japan Pro Wrestling as a member of Taka Michinoku's foreigner-oriented RO&D faction. He and Mark Jindrak wrestled for HUSTLE as a tag team under the names of Sodom and Gomorrah. The two formed the biggest tag-team in Japan, with Morgan standing at 6 ft 10 in and 335 lb and Jindrak at 6 ft 6 in 250 lb.

Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (2007-present)

Morgan debuted in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling on the August 7, 2007 episode of TNA Today, appearing briefly in the background of a segment featuring Eric Young and Jeremy Borash. On the August 9 episode of TNA iMPACT!, Morgan appeared alongside TNA Management Director Jim Cornette, with TNA later identifying him as Cornette's "backup".[1] Morgan was the Special Enforcer in the Samoa Joe and Christian Cage match at Bound for Glory, preventing Christian's Coalition from interfering as Joe gave Cage his first true defeat in TNA.

Morgan had to restrain Tomko and A.J. Styles on the October 18 edition of iMPACT! when they tried interfering in the main event helping Christian defeat Samoa Joe in a Fight For The Right Qualifying match.

On the April 3, 2008 edition of TNA iMPACT, it was revealed that Matt Morgan allowed Team Tomko to add James Storm to their team, giving them a 5-4 advantage heading to Lockdown; however, at the end of the program, it was revealed that Morgan himself had joined Team Cage. The next week, Jim Cornette relieved Morgan of his assistant duties to become a full time wrestler. With Matt Morgan joining Team Cage he has established himself as a face.
