Guest Trivia247 Report post Posted January 7, 2005 Thanks to Mike Johnson at PWInsider for the following: -- Chris Jericho will be hosting the 2/9 edition of MTV’s Headbanger’s Ball, which his band Fozzy’s new video “Enemy” will debut. The video was directed by Paul Hough, who also directed the “Backyard” documentary video. -- Word Going around WWE right now, is that once Matt Morgan is finally brought back to the active roster, he will be wrestling under a mask. It is unclear when exactly he will be making his return, or if he will go under the Matt Morgan name, or a completely different one for the mask. -- Word going around right now in TNA is that Abyss’ current contract with TNA expires on January 30th.

Prophet of Mike Zagurski 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2005 -- Word Going around WWE right now, is that once Matt Morgan is finally brought back to the active roster, he will be wrestling under a mask. It is unclear when exactly he will be making his return, or if he will go under the Matt Morgan name, or a completely different one for the mask. Once people see him wrestle, they will know who he is. "Dude, it's that guy who Chris Benoit eliminated from the Royal Rumble." What happened to MM? Was he injured or did they send him back to OVW?

He is so forgettable, it isn't even funny. I was at a Smackdown house show when he was still on the active roster. It was right before NWO '04. Anyways, marks around me didn't even know who he was, and he'd had a quite significant role previously. They thought it was Test. He was just another big guy.

Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted January 7, 2005 Matt Morgan is apprently a good promoer...makes PERFECT sense they put him in a mask. I hope this mask isn't a Lucha style mask but something intimidating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted January 7, 2005 Oh; by the way when does "All That Remains" come out? Wonder if Vince gives Fozzy another promotion push; I'd imagine it does better since Jericho is a face now unlike back in fall 2002 where he was Flair's bitch when Happenstance came out.

Promoter 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2005 I guess they feel they need a new Kane circa 1997. Maybe Kane asked to get out of the stupid storylines they put him into if he did the movie. Although that doesn't explain the Lita nonsense which ironically made him a face. Why not give faux Diesel 2 this time around and bring back Nash at WM 21 for the "money match". I'm sure 1990 Vince Mcmahon would love that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted January 8, 2005 Let's hope none of the announcers pull a Roddy Piper and scream "Thats Matt Morgan!" when he's under a mask. Anyone remember Tony Atlas' short run in 1991 as Saba Simba (while ignoring he was Tony Atlas)? Piper: It's Tony Atlas! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Fook_Theta Report post Posted January 8, 2005 Chris Park a.k.a. "Abyss" is no longer with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. TNA Wrestling and the TNA iMPACT Community wishes him luck in his future endeavors. White hoss in a mask could with the proper build up and believable personality in the ring, could carve out a nice niche on either of the brands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
