Jim Ross, sur son blog, compare Jim Morrison à Shawn Michaels à ses premières années. Morrison, qui n'est pas le lutteur le plus imposant, est selon lui imaginatif et a un style unique, ce qui pourrait le mener très loin comme lutteur.
Citation:
"Watching John Morrison Monday night, I thought back to the early, early days of HBK and how athletic, quick and innovative Shawn was early in his career which made many of us feel that he was going to be a star from the beginning. Morrison will never, like HBK, be the biggest dog in the fight, but offensive innovation and being unique could take Morrison a long way. I wish he was a Friday night regular but that's my personal bias coming thru. If John Morrison can approach Shawn Michaels' level of success, Morrison will then have had a helluva run."
