John Morrison making fun of Seth Rollins

Morrison made fun of Rollins and said that the latter has been drinking a lot of kool-aid recently. He was attributing the former Universal Champion’s exaggerated sense of accomplishment to the latter drinking a lot of kool-aid. Morrison also talked about other WWE stars including WWE Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura. Morrison said that he liked Nakamura’s controlled chaos style during a match, but claimed that the champion must be a Morrison fan as he used the German Suplex (Morrison’s favourite impact move for years). He also called out Sami Zayn. He said that the wrestler was just a glorified manager hanging onto Nakamura’s coattails. Morrison also praised Ricochet and called him a superhero inside the ring.
