I really loved Striker's evil teacher gimmick. Was never gonna get him any higher than midcard at best but it was some fun, classic heelery.

Well, he did make it to Wrestlemania as part of the "The New Breed."

In WWE, he was like the proto-Mauro on RAW but without any of the charm mainly because of Cole & Lawler working against him the whole time he was in RAW's booth. |

I remember internet fans turning on Striker when he started to bring up historically incorrect facts on commentary.

I believe he would've been more palatable if he wore trunks while doing commentary.

Fav Matt Striker moment. Cena was the ref in Orton/Barrett and if Orton won he was fired, if Barrett won he was free from the Nexus.

I think the internet loved Striker at first because they felt he was "one of us"
But do you remember the episode of Seinfeld where Jerry dates "female Jerry" played by Janeane Garafalo. He thinks dating a female version of himself is great at first but ends up dumping her because he finds her annoying. That's what happened to Striker. |

Striker is unbearable. His Lucha Underground work was atrocious.

Bruce Prichard currently dealing with some online backlash after giving a poor excuse for Vince saying the N word during a WWE show back in 2005.

I do like that NXT has matches to determine who has the entry advantage in War Games. Everybody knows the heels will win them because the heels have to have the advantage for the story of War Games to make any sense but it's better than just having the heels magically win the coin toss every single time.

NXT got hit with another coronavirus situation since according to Fightful, at least one top star recently tested positive for it.
If its just this one person, then the chances of another outbreak happening at the Performance Center seems to be low based on stuff mentioned about the person. Quote:

I really do think that once the pandemic is over, I’m going to make it a point to watch the first Raw, SD, NXT, Dynamite, Dark, Impact, ROH etc back with a full audience. Doesn’t matter if the show is good or bad, I just want to see the reactions everyone has as they step through the curtain.

Sting never drew outside 1997. Vince probably didn’t want to pay him enough money to be 60 and on the roster, so he’s taking Tony’s money to be a mascot.

Almost everything about that Charlotte vs. Rhea feud was probably the closest to main roster booking mentality NXT has reached ever since the start of their USA Network Era. Not only was Charlotte a huge bust in terms of being a ratings magnet for the brand, it also knee capped the momentum NXT's women's division had at the time and also severely knee capped the momentum and top star rise Rhea had built up since last year's WarGames event. Not even Keith Lee's Double Champ reign was as bad of a swing and miss as that feud was for Rhea. |
