Interesting. There has been a number of times recently where I have noticed some awkward moments between Cole/Striker where King usually stays silent. I think a few at Wrestlemania 26

I bet Cole hates when there's a big move in a match and Striker just yells "OHHHHHHHH" really loud.

Honestly Kurtis Stryker was going in this contest over his head I mean a god of lighting, A Hell spawn ninja and EVERYBODY BUT YOU THROWS A GODDAMN FIREBALL the guns and hand grenades were a mercy. God forbid he should run low on ammo.

On a serious note though Matt Striker can be a little obnoxious but that'll go in time I think, I'm glad theres someone on the team who tries as opposed to seeming dispassionate like king seems to be or is just a straightup corp toolbag like Cole,Plus anybody who annoys Cole as much as he annoys me is the goods as far as I'm concerned.

Personally, I liked JR and King the best, that was one of my favorite teams along with Gorilla and Ventura. Striker is alright in his knowledge of the business but he has been bothering me lately. Who boos when the Hart Dynasty finally wins the tag titles? Bret Hart was in no way involved with them actually winning the match. He took Miz's feet off the ropes but did nothing else. He is trying way too hard to be the heel announcer and he definitely does come off as elitist.

So, what do you guys think of this?
It's kayfabe.

Yeah Striker maybe a little over the top at times, but like many others have said, at least he actually cares about the product. I personally think him and Joey Styles would be a great team together.

You can always feel the tension between them when they are doing commentary together.

On one of the "special" Raws that had people from all three brands, Lawyer was given pages with the names of the wrestlers and the pictures of them, because he was totally unfamiliar with the wrestlers on Smackdown and ECW.

That's what the news report claimed at least.

I actually felt it then for the first time, and in numerous spots. In fact, it was the very first time I've recognized what many might call "bad announcing". And it wasn't Striker's fault; Cole kept negating EVERYTHING he said. Any given bit of info Striker put out there, especially toward the latter half of the show, Cole would say "Not even that, but this!" It was like watching a guy purposefully bomb at improv comedy.

Ironic, is it not, that when people call someone "elitist", it's said in a way that the name-caller is looking down on them.
