!!Tropes associated with him include:
* TheBrute: He was the main muscle for Wrestling/{{Fortune}}.
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: Abyss. Main Event Mafia. Hernandez. Immortal. Doesn't matter who he's teaming with, face or heel, he will betray them. It was eventually {{Averted|Trope}} with Crimson, who [[HoistByHisOwnPetard beat him to the punch]].
* ContinuityNod: Morgan once turned face because he was shocked to see a concussed man being forced to wrestle. Morgan has put someone out with a concussion before. He ''referred'' to this on ''[=ReAction=]'' by bringing up that Hernandez didn't come back after him for months.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Turned face because he's shocked at forcing a concussed man to wrestle.
* TheGiant: The man is billed as seven feet tall, and does use a lot of power moves, but he's also a decent wrestler in other respects.
* ItsAllAboutMe: It's hard to get more self-centered than attacking your tag team partner while you're tag team champions and then proclaiming yourself sole tag team champion.
* FinishingMove: The Carbon Footprint; a bicycle kick or a running big boot.
* LightningBruiser: Is surprisingly fast and agile for someone so big and able dish out and withstand punishment.
* NeverMyFault: Claimed Hernandez almost cost them the tag titles when Hernandez pretty much retained them ''single-handedly''.
* PutOnABus: For a very short time, then [[TheBusCameBack the bus turned around]]. Got back on the bus later on in 2013, and again in 2015, with the bus turning around each time as well.
* RedBaron: The Blueprint.
* RedemptionPromotion: After a HeelFaceTurn, he suddenly became badass again and proceeded to began being a main event level wrestler alongside [[Wrestlng/KenAnderson Mr. Anderson]].
* RoyalWe: During his tag team title run after turning on Hernandez.
* ShoutOut: His [[RedBaron epithet]] "The Blueprint" is a shout out to his favorite rapper, Music/JayZ.
* SmugSnake: His heel runs of him declaring himself a big show tend to end up with him biting more than he can chew; see the end of his sole reign as TNA World Tag Team Champion: Him getting attacked by Samoa Joe and Kevin Nash cashing in his "Feast or Fired" contract to pin Morgan to make himself and Scott Hall the new World Tag Team Champions.
* UnderwearOfPower: He wears the standard wrestling trunks.
* UngratefulBastard: His response to Hernandez pretty much retaining the TNA World Tag Team titles single-handedly for their team was to put him out of action, leave with both title belts, and declare himself the sole World Tag Team Champion.
