Former WWE tag team and Intercontinental champion and ECW world heavyweight champion, John Morrison is today’s guest. He’s known for his incredible feats of athleticism in the ring and also for always being in amazing shape.
He is currently wrestling for Lucha Underground, which can be seen on the El Rey Network. John is also a working actor, having appeared in numerous films, shorts and TV shows over the last few years.
In addition to that John is a good friend of mine and one hell of a solid dude.
