Joe Linderman (born October 3, 1979) is an American professional wrestler better known by his ring name Joe Linderman, and previously Johnny Linderman. He is signed to IWE performing on its Raw brand.

Before being promoted to the main IE roster, Linderman entered Tough Enough III, a televised competition that would award the winner a IWE contract. He was one of the winners in the competition and assigned to their developmental territory, Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), to continue his wrestling training. While situated at OVW, he was placed in a tag team, alongside Joey Hayes, in which they won the OVW Southern Tag Team Championship on one occasion. It was also during this time that he and Hayes, alongside their manager Denise, were known as the stable MNM.

After signing with IWE, the group were called up to the SmackDown! roster and on their debut in April 2005, Linderman and Hayes went on to win the IWE Tag Team Championship. After their third and final reign ended in May 2006, Linderman and Denise turned on Hayes. Lindermand and Denise were let go from the SmackDown! roster and debuted on the Raw brand. During his time with the brand, Linderman competed in singles competition and won the IWE Intercontinental Championship twice. In June 2007, Linderman was drafted from Raw to the XCW brand. During that time, he won the vacant ECW World Championship once, which was his first world championship. Linderman formed a partnership with Jose Smith in late 2007, with the two capturing the IWE Tag Team Championship and the World Tag Team Championship on separate occasions. They split in April 2009, and Morrison returned to SmackDown, where he won the Intercontinental Championship for the third time in September 2009.
