Who was that old wrestler in the WWF that wore a graduation cap and he was kind of the teacher type? or thought he was a genious? anyone remember him? does he remind you of Matt Stryker? I really like his gimmick i mean hes not a great wrestler.. but its entertaining in a cheesy way.. its cool that hes in ECW too because hes like the Hardcore Teacher now.. lol.. maybe its just me?

Isn't Matt Striker supposed to be like an upper mid carder or something on that show?
and people complain about RAW's roster being thin when the likes of Striker, Test & Holly have prominant roles on another program.

I've always liked Striker and his gimmick, and at one point during his feud with the Sandman, he was probably the best booked heel in ECW.

Striker's pretty good, but man he needs to wear a cup when he wrestles. He has a problem of Rene Dupree proportions.

anyone know the name of the other dude im tryin to think of? was he like stryker? Shane Douglas as Dean Douglas? Everytime I've seen Striker he's come across as "not ready for primetime". His selling is too cheesy and fake. |

I actually like Chris Masters so I can't really dog on anyone for liking Striker.

i love all of ecws roster though ESPECIALLY THE ALPHA MALE im so exited lol.. he was my fav in TNA .. the only complaint of ECW I have is not enough hardcore and thats a BIG thing but as long as they have like a barbwire match or a stairway to hell match in the future itll be good

Matt Stryker is a different wrestler than Matt Striker. Striker is the WWE wrestler, Stryker is an indy guy. That's not really important, though.
Anyway, Striker's gimmick is cheesy and not really over. At first I thought it could be good, but I was wrong. One-dimensional, cartoonish, evil-for-the-sake-of-being-evil, characters shouldn't exist in a modern wrestling promotion.

Would Striker have a job with WWE in the first place if he didn't get fired from the school for calling in sick to wrestle at an indy event?
Would Poffo have had a job if he weren't Randy Savage's brother?

He could be a great heel with some time. His rant on Kelly Kelly came off rather tame, although I will admit that it's hard to get heat for dealing on someone people don't really like much.

I still say he should've had the gimmick of a hardcore wrestling teacher. just using school supplies in his attacks. I want to see somebody get stabbed with a protractor damn it!

Stryker blows, and I'm not impressed with his unibrow.
Striker seems okay, though.
PS Half circles are deadly.
