I'm a fan of Josh Mathews, always have been, I wanted him to win Tough Enough, lol.
Anyway his straight man to Cole's ridiculousness through NXT was a real highlight for me but in NXT Season 4 he's paired with Todd Grisham and he seems to be trying to be Cole or something. So many arrogant remarks made to Todd throughout the hour. I didn't find it entertaining like I did with Cole, maybe because Todd didn't have any comebacks, I just felt sorry for Todd and thought that Josh was a bit of a prick.

Its a case that the commentators these days are trying to put themselves over more than the talent.

It may be that they're trying him out as a heelish commentator and NXT, as a webshow, is a good place to try something different. If it doesn't work, no harm done.
Plus, I think it's really competitive right now. Outside of Cole and Lawler, pretty much all these guys have to think that they're expendable, and they need to do something to stand out.

I'm just starting to think no one likes Todd, so they turn heel.

Is there an easier target to be the butt of jokes than Todd Grisham? The guy makes Matt Striker seem witty.

Both of these. NXT is where they try new things because they know almost no one is watching but they can still get some feedback. |
