THE DNA OF TNA, MATT MORGAN
6 Reasons Why Matt Morgan Should be Impact's World Heavyweight Champion
In-Ring Skill
Matt Morgan is seven feet tall and near 350 pounds.
I mentioned earlier how he is arguably the most athletic big man in wrestling today.
Matt Morgan, as big as he is, can pull off some athletic moves for a man his size. How often do you see a seven foot tall, 328 pound wrestler jump off the top rope? Not often, right?
Not the case for Matt Morgan.
Morgan can bring the power game as long as the aerial game to his move set in the ring.
He pulls off moves like the Carbon Footprint, Hellevator and even a cross body off the top rope. Matt Morgan can do it all in the ring.
The Fans Want to See It
Bound For Glory 2009. Lockdown 2011. Bound For Glory Series 2011.
What do those dates represent?
Matt Morgan's fan support wanted him as World Champion around those dates. His support from fans to be World Champion has grown since BFG 2009 and continues to grow.
Bound For Glory 2009, Morgan had a hard fought match against MEM leader, Kurt Angle. His match slightly turned Kurt face and can be credited for ending the long reign of the Main Event Mafia in TNA.
Lockdown 2011, Morgan defeated Hernandez even with help from the rest of Mexican America. In the end, Morgan ascended the cage and celebrated with a full house in Cincinnati.
Matt Morgan said that the BFG Series was custom made for him, and a lot of fans agreed. Morgan was viewed as a fan favorite to win the Series, main event Bound For Glory and become the new Heavyweight Champion. That vision was shattered thanks to an injury Morgan suffered.
Matt Morgan is still viewed as a fan favorite and can be called one of the most deserving guys on the roster to hold the top tier title.
Matt Morgan Has Proved Himself Time and Time Again
Every test, every obstacle thrown in Matt Morgan's way, he's overcome it.
His alliance and feud with Abyss. It worked.
His alliance and feud with the Main Event Mafia. It worked to perfection.
Teaming and feuding with Hernandez and Mexican America. He made it work.
Matt Morgan has had loads of challenges thrown in his face and he's swept them all away. He's gotten wins over guys like AJ ****, Kurt Angle, Abyss, Hernandez and can work a match against the best they have to offer.
Matt Morgan has proved that he is ready to be World Champion.
Could've, Should've and Would've
Matt Morgan could've, should've and would have won the BFG Series and main evented Bound For Glory this past October.
It's no secret. It's no doubt in anyone's mind.
That was the original plan all along.
That plan was busted when Morgan was injured and Bobby Roode was pulled in instead.
Morgan even said the BFG Series was tailor made for him to win and plenty of people believed him.
Even with Morgan's injury and missing the BFG Series, IMPACT can still run a storyline between him and BFG Series winner and current Heavyweight Champion, Bobby Roode. Morgan can use the could've, should've and would've story. And why not. Roode's challengers are slowly fading.
Storm is injured with a concussion, AJ injured his ankle, who's left?
Matt Morgan.
He's Overdue for a Singles Title
We all know about Morgan's Tag Team reign in 2010 but what about a singles reign? He's never had one.
Matt Morgan is really overdue for a run as a singles champion.
Even in the MEM Era, Morgan could've had a run with the Legends Championship at the time, but no.
As I previously said, Morgan has proved himself countless times and he could've, should've and would've. Matt Morgan has all the skill and in a definite main event talent waiting to happen.
Four years in TNA and he hasn't held a singles title yet. Really?
