John Morrison has officially signed and will be rejoining the company after 8 years away. He could certainly be used in a mid-card role – perhaps he could return as a potential challenger to AJ Styles’ United States Championship or Shinsuke Nakamura’s IC Title – you never know.
Which brand Morrison ends up being featured on really depends on whether Vince McMahon chooses to use him as a heel or face. If he winds up on Monday Night Raw, then he will be used as a babyface in all likelihood because that particular brand already has a plethora of heels, with Bobby Lashley, Drew McIntyre, Brock Lesnar, and the emerging heel Seth Rollins. On the other hand, he may be more suited to be a heel if he is featured on SmackDown, a brand that already has plenty of faces.
