Many present and past WWE Superstars have dabbled in combat sports. John Morrison (real name John Randall Hennigan), who recently participated in his first boxing battle, was another name added to the list.
John Morrison announced in January that he would face Harley Morenstein in his debut boxing battle at Creator Clash 2 in Tampa on April 15. The former tag team champion defeated the actor through a technical knockout in their first fight.
He dominated Morenstein throughout the first two rounds, including throwing Morenstein to the canvas and through the ropes in the opening frame. He then used a mighty right hand to knock out his opponent in the third round.

John Morrison’s WWE Stint
John Morrison joined WWE in 2002 under a developmental contract and remained a member of the organization through 2011. Before returning to the Stamford-based promotion in September 2019 for a second stint, the high-flyer WWE Superstar established himself on the Independent Circuit and other wrestling promotions.
His second stint, however, was short-lived because COVID-19 budget cuts led to his release from his contract in November 2021.
Morrison rejoined AAA after leaving WWE and occasionally competed in the Indies. Additionally, he appeared numerous times for All Elite Wrestling.
