John Morrison looked extremely weak tonight on SmackDown
On this week’s episode of SmackDown, WWE Superstar John Morrison was easily defeated by Otis as the two continued their feud on the Blue brand. The former tag team champion could barely make room for any offense and was completely dominated by one half of The Heavy Machinery. The match portrayed Morrison as a very weak competitor inside the squared circle.

Their match started with Morrison immediately trying to attack Otis, but the latter ducked. Mr. Money in the Bank then went on to land a splash and then went on to deliver the Caterpillar that ultimately allowed him to pin Morrison in the middle of the ring. Tonight’s victory looked extremely easy for Otis, which makes you wonder why he hasn’t cashed-in his MITB contract yet.
As for John Morrison, he certainly deserves better treatment on SmackDown. We have seen him put up good matches this year. Given the current state of the tag team division in WWE, it makes me wonder if the company can afford such losses for those who frequently represent the same on SmackDown.
