Letter to John Morrison (By Sunny Josan)

Hello John.

I do not know if you will read this, but here it goes.

My name is Sunny and I am 20 year old guy from Sydney Australia.

In the beginning of 2010 I had very bad depression and was scared about the future and my life. I am n only child so that made stuff worse. I would constantly feel sick in my stomach and not eat for days. I sought medical help but still no shrink could make me feel better. after months of stress and horrible days I decided to turn on FOX8 (our WWE channel here in Australia) and see what I missed out on since mid 2008. At the time I was a Chris Jericho fan and he was scheduled to compete in a 6 pack match at Night Of Champions 2010, but the anonymous RAW GM announced that since Jericho was disrespectful he would have to win his next match to keep his spot in the 6 pack.

He has to beat... this guy.... (John Morrison's intro music hits)

Oh my I thought to myself wasn't this guy Johnny Nitro? Wow he looks different. "I have no doubt this John Morrison will be WWE or World Heavyweight Champion soon" I thought to myself.
As the match began I started to see what type of style you do in the ring and it was a breath taking never before seen style (which would be later revealed as "Parkour"). Anyway, to my surprise you nailed Jericho with the Star Ship pain and pinned him. From that moment on you were my favorite WWE wrestler.

Weeks went by and my depression started reducing, every RAW I tuned in JUST to watch you compete and W or L your matches were the "Match of the Night".

As my depression cleared, I felt good enough to go for my first ever overseas holiday. To the Middle East. I was excited to know that RAW was broadcasted there. So I packed my stuff along with my WWE magazines that I read each night and went. However it will be later revealed to me that RAW broadcasting was 1 week late, therefore on the Monday they will broadcast last Mondays RAW. Not to worry instead I would go to the internet cafe and view the lastest raw there.
In the middle east I witnessed you in the Bragging Rights match, I watched you save Santino numerous times from the WWE "bully" Sheamus which led to your amazing Survivor Series matchup, which after you won I cheered so loud that other people in the internet cafe stared at me. It is safe to say you became my Idol, Rolemodel and hero from that point on.

I came back to Australia just in time to see The Miz cash in the MITB and win the WWE title. "no worries" I said "The Miz needs MITB to win a title and although I was surprised he won it before the Shawn Michaels of that group", which was and still is you. I knew that you would not need a briefcase to win a WWE world title, or if you did, WWE would not have you cash in the cowards way.

Christmas time came and I decided to finally buy myself what I always wanted A adult replica World Heavyweight title, I was so confident in you that I got it engraved to read "John Morrison", as I knew you had it in you.

Come TLC 2010 it was announced that Sheamus vs John Morrison in a Ladeer Match for number 1 contendership of the World title. Wow I thought, "could my prediction have came true? is John Morrison going to be a maineventer in the WWE?". It was a shoe in after you beat Sheamus in that PPV. But when it was announced that your match will take place on RAW, I knew the title was not going to change hands. and although that was the case. I knew it was not long before you finally do capture that brass ring.

Months went by and I enjoyed more of your matches, My depression will sometimes peak back at me, but a weekly dose of John Morrison seemed to put it back into place.

Then after WM new of the Trish Incident started making dirt sheet headlines, I generally thought and still think Trish overreacted and was being a spoilt drama queen.

But that incident did not seem to have much impact on your career as you were placed in the Extreme Rules 2011 mainevent. After that match which you were booked to seem as close to winning the title before Truth interfered and cost you it, I told my cousin that this marks the day John Morrison is officially a maineventer in the WWE.

The next week, news of your injury surfaced and I was shocked and saddened. I realized that even you mostly will not be able to attend the RAW Australia tour in July, but I still did not give up hope, as there always was next year. I also found out that you should be able to wrestle arounf MITB 2011 so that meant you could be a surprise entrant and win, although that did not happen I knew you will still be better than before, as you stated on Twitter. During that time I bought a Topps pendant from ebay which included a piece of your shirt, and I wear it to encourage me through rough times.

in July HHH announced to truth someone who really wants a piece of him is about to receive it. I jumped for joy as your music hit and you gave truth a beating. Surely this meant a Summerslam feud. But to my surprise as weeks went on you did not win any match at all and on the week before Summerslam Truth defeated you fair in the ring. and no news of a match at Summerslam. I then went on to find out that there had been backstage problems and that you might leave after your contract expired. After absorbing the news and secret tears finished to fall. I convinced myself that this was just a dirtsheet rumour.

As months went on. Loss after loss. dirtsheet rumours after dirtsheet rumours. I started to lose hope.

When your losing streak finally ended two weeks ago. A familiar smile returned to my face as I knew something good is happening. But that smile did not last long as it was revealed that after the 28th of November you were not booked for any appearences.

After Survivor Series, exactly 1 year after finding my Role Model I was certain that this was the end. Certainty became confirmation after you did not appear on the next nights RAW. I feel so down at the moment and I know that your last match next week will probably be a squash match against Brodus clay.

I understand you will probably go to TNA, but lets face it winning a world title there doesnt mean crap and I do not get the TNA channel.

I am trying to find a new Role Model to look up to, but seem pretty unsuccessful. To make matters worse my depression decided to peak its head back in and I am back to try finding a way cure it and lock it back up. I am secretly wiping my tears away as I am typing right now. But do not worry about me. I am turning 21 this December and will officially become a adult Man, I can take care of myself. I just hope that you will read this, just so that you know how much you meant to me. At the end of the day if you re-sign or do not, it is still your decision And I will respect it.

I love you John. I really, really do.
Goodbye My brother.
