'Survivor' Castaway John Morrison on Jeremy's 'Ridiculous' Showmance Claims (Exclusive)
John Hennigan (aka John Morrison) has 15 years of professional wrestling under his belt, but this was one move -- or a few -- that he didn't see coming.
The 39-year-old was voted off Survivor: David vs. Goliath on Wednesday night's episode in a huge "Brochacho Blindside," with a split vote and two idols played.
"I was surprised, shocked," John told ET on Thursday, admitting he assumed his Goliath tribe would stick together. "I didn't realize it until Jeff [Probst] read the first vote with my name on it. Even though two idols were played, I still didn't put it together until that vote."

Survivor: Why David vs. Goliath's John Hennigan Is No Longer In WWE
Professional wrestler John Hennigan from Survivor: David vs. Goliath was recently released from WWE, and some fans may be confused as to why.

John originally worked for WWE from 2002 to 2011 before a successful run in the independent circuit and a World Championship reign for Impact Wrestling. He returned to WWE in 2019, re-teaming with his former partner, The Miz, but he has since been released from his WWE contract.
During his time in the independent circuit, John took time off from wrestling to try his hand at Survivor. He appeared on the show's 37th season, David vs. Goliath, as a member of the Goliath tribe. John subverted expectations by displaying a keen sense of self-awareness on the island. Counter to his wrestling character, John came across as sensitive and kindhearted, memorably befriending robotics engineer Christian Hubicki after a tribe swap. Forming an alliance called the "brochachos" together, Christian even offered to become the comptroller of "Slamt • Say publicly man goslow a 1000 nicknames heard the ambush name lighten up did clump want declared by Jeff Probst enraged Tribal Council: his debris.
