Maybe I just missed it but other than the thread about who Striker was talking to on his cell I haven't seen any dedicated to the phenomenal job he did. Like, that's the stuff that gets pure heat and can get wrestlers over. My expectations are obviously low that this goes anywhere given Michael Hayes and Armando Estrada's temporary stints, but WWE would be foolish not to let Striker run with this character. He hit it out of the f***ing park.
If you haven't watched it yet, it's the first segment to begin Superstars.

Well that's interesting and different than seeing Matt Striker host of NXT. I am quiet interested in seeing how this is going to work out. I like the segment it's pretty cool but I am just curious on how this is going to go.

Wow, seriously good. I was afraid Striker was gonna be fired after he was dropped from SmackDown, but I'm glad to see he stuck around long enough for the manager resurgence. Striker was great and made me want to see more of Tyson Kidd, who I couldn't care less about before.

I don't know why Kidd of all people is getting so many managers since there are a lot worse talkers than he is, but at least it gives Striker something to do.

Have Striker be Ted DiBiase's Agent.
Then, he can hire Skip Sheffield and Michael Tarver as secret service!
DO IT WWE!

Tyson: "I want you to say Show Me The Money Matt.."
Striker: "Uh ... Tyson I don't think -"
Tyson: "Say it"
Striker "Fine, show me the money"
Tyson: "Oh no SAY IT, SCREAM IT, SHOUT IT! I WANNA HEAR IT MATT! I WANNA HEAR IT!"
Striker: "SHOW ME THE MONEY"

He looks like he could be a much more entertaining version of Michael Troll.

The best part was Booker T's laugh when he said "You can call him Horrible!"

I hope this goes somewhere and isn't just quietly dropped as Striker was on fire with this gimmick. I'm glad they are actually looking to do something with him and Striker can make anything work.

Well with what Striker said about Yoshi, I was hoping that Tyson would of said, "who are you to doubt Yoshi Tatsu"

For the first time in years I'm liking something Matt Striker is doing.
He is a natural smarmy doucebag.
Hopefully this gets Tyson on the main shows and in some angles. I've really warned up to him since watching the Hart Family DVD.

Yeah Striker is perfect as a heel I could see him really doing a good job of getting Tyson over.

Yeah, hopefully the start of bigger things for Striker. He's been vastly under-used for months now. It'd be nice to see him take this somewhere better than Superstars. They should show him come out to several other wrestlers, watch them and hand out his card.

Matt Striker as Ari Gold or Arliss Michaels? Brilliant. I liked him when he was managing Big Daddy V in ECW.
