No, Striker puts himself over as a teacher. The commentators say he was fired in disgrace. By my standard, Burchill shouldn't make anyone walk the plank, or contract scurvey.
All I'm saying is that Striker could be a deep character. I love it when he condescends crowds, and I love it when he uses big words. I even love the get-up he wears, but there should be some irony to it. That's what the Dean Douglas character lacked.
Next week, I'd have Matt Striker come out and point out that he made some controversial comments next week. The system is trying to get him to conform again. He wrestles because he hates conforming, he hates not being able to punch that smart-ass student in the mouth, but now he's free from the confines of the system, he will kick the ass of Sandman as punishment. The Sandman will stand as a metaphor for all those who bite the hand that feeds them.
The ideal Matt Striker character is paranoid, hates those above him, and hates those below him. The only person he cares about is himself. This guy has so much promo ability and so much wrestling talent that it would be a shame if the WWE stuck him with a 2D character.
