AEW Star Believes He Could Win World Championship In WWE

A former WWE star currently with AEW has stated that he believes he could still become a world champion one day.

While Johnny TV – fka John Morrison – held a number of championships during his WWE run, the company’s WWE Championship and World Heavyweight Championship always eluded him.

Speaking on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, John noted that he believes he could still win a world title in WWE, or “maybe AEW”.

Addressing his future, John said:

“You can say what you want about this, but to this day, I still feel like I could be world champion of WWE one day, maybe AEW. I feel like I just need another opportunity.

“The way wrestling works, in my mind is things come in waves. Might have mentioned that to you before, but you ride a wave for a while, and then it passes and you’re kind of waiting for the next wave.

“Sometimes you’re waiting longer than other times, but when waves come and you catch them, they take you places, and like the ECW Heavyweight Championship win for me was like the first huge wave that I caught, and it led me to some really amazing places.

“It could have ended up leading me to become a world champion on Raw or SmackDown, or it could have just completely backfired and like, something else weird happened and then led to nothing.”

“John Morrison” last wrestled for WWE in November 2021, ahead of his release later that month.

His most recent appearance under the Tony Khan banner saw him face Ace Austin on ROH in January, with the former WWE star more recently wrestling in CMLL as “Johnny Consejo”.
