John Morrison On Lucha Underground & Why He Signed With Them, The Origins Of ‘Eat Your Lunch’ Catchphrase, Would He Rule Out A WWE Return?

okay… so… I took Tae Kwon Do for a few months as a kid & the instructor was this bad ass (he seemed bad ass, but then I was only 8) who would sit around after class and talk about his former tournament fights to the kids… his favorite way to say he was kicking ass was “Man, lemme tell you, I was EATING THIS GUYS LUNCH…”

“… so this was the semi final match, I slipped a round, got inside and BOOM! bam! bam! BOOM! I was EATING THIS DUDES LUNCH when out of now where he threw a hook kick! Bam! caught me in the temple, I was out… man… I would killed the guy in the finals too…”

most of his stories after class to small groups of children went something like that… that phrase made me laugh ever since. – WWE Merch people, & Stephanie all said the phrase was stupid and would never sell, they thought the moneys on the shirt were too weird- All that made me want the damn shirt made ever more so I insisted! … I love that shirt… but no one else did… Lol

Would he ever consider a return to WWE? 

indubitably! I’m really happy with Lucha Underground now though, I think it’s a great forum for me to perform in my hometown -LA!, with great talent & great peeps
