The following are highlights from a recent interview with former WWE Superstar John Morrison:
On WWE’s vibe backstage: “The vibe
backstage became more relaxed the longer I was with the company… 1:
because when you’re new to the locker room you have to walk on egg shells a bit
and, 2: because the roster has become less unruly than it was back in the day…
we all wear dockers & collared shirts; dress code.”
On whether or not wrestling helped his movie
career: “Absolutely, entertainment is entertainment homie. That is
the point of movies, TV, theatre, wrestling, concerts…
everything that people choose to watch… to quote Vince McMahon, “Entertain my
Ass!” If you understand how to do that, part of the skill set translates to
different entertainment mediums.”
On his future plans and
goals: “2014 is off to a crazy start! I just finished filming a
Hercules movie,
starring as Hercules. It’s going to be out in July around the same time the
Rocky’s Hercules movie comes out.
I’m really excited about producing my first feature; Boone the Bounty Hunter, Boone is a bounty hunter
that does parkour to catch skips. I’ve been working on the project for over a
year now and am really excited to begin filming next month.”
