I usually don't make these appreciation threads, but when I saw that picture-in-picture promo of Mike Knox with the glasses and that glorious beard of his neatly tied up, I was just... damn. Not to mention the big words and references to paralysis.
Team him up with Jericho after he's done with Big Show, and you would honestly have the most intellectually advanced promos of all time.

I'm becoming a huge mark for Mike Knox. He really is kind of like a modern day Bruiser Brody, who was sometimes called "The Intelligent Monster". And with all respect to the late Brody, I almost think Knox might be even a little more athletic for a man that size, and that's really saying something.

I love how Mike Knox is right now. He's a big crazy guy with an aggressive style, but he uses surgical precision to accomplish his means and conducts himself in a softly-spoken intellectual manner.

I like where this gimmick is going, although it seems more like the gimmick is "Dr. Michael and Mr. Knox".

It's awesome stuff, I hope it goes on for a while. It's nice to see a big man get something more than the "angry guy who beats people up" treatment.

You know what else was awesome is in last night's match when Finlay climbed to the top rope and Knox just grabbed his leg and pulled him off onto the mat. I don't know if I've ever seen that before.

They need to have vignettes set in his lab, where he'll just punch a guy in the face, say "Interesting...interesting...", then write something down on a pad of paper.

Awesome Mike Knox is awesome. It's a shame Mike Awesome's already taken, isn't it? But yeah, I loved that. Knox was a good big man already, but with this character so long as the push keeps up (and it's SmackDown, so it probably will for awhile) Mike Knox could go on to do big things. Already got a unique look and a unique character, and by all appearances the ability to put those things to use.

They need to show him standing outside the arena punching people in the stomach then stepping back and watching only if he is wearing glasses, trunks, and a lab coat over it all with a clipboard. also have someone not in use e.g Charlie Hass & Primo standing beside him taking notes as he explains the physics and impact it has on the human body. when he eventually goes down to the ring, they sit at ring side taking notes and occasionly tells them things to write down. insta-10.0 rating! if it get's stale have a SWERVE that Primo really has a science PHd and has been spying for carlito so they can become joint nobel prize/tag team champions! Which they attempt to wn from the school of hard knox @ WM 26! no i did not put too much thought into this why would you think that ;D

Every time I think Knox is about to get released he comes back better than ever.
