Wrestling News & Wrestling Rumors

According to Dave Meltzer WWE didn’t like the work of international star Takeshi Morishima the other week during his tryout match, and thought he wasn’t in good enough shape to be hired by the WWE. This begs the question why did they even give him a shot? Considering he’s always been big, similar to Samoa Joe.

Jim Ross had this to say about Morishima:

“I haven’t heard a word about how well his matches went. I watched his match in Moline and it was o.k. Not bad, not great. It looks like Morishima might want to focus on his athletic conditioning and hit the gym more frequently. I am not being negative here only realistic. Morishima has ’something’ that seems like it might be worth exploring. I like his timing and there is no doubt potential with this young man.”
