I think if Matt Striker were to return to the ring right now, his teacher gimmick would be a whole lot more successful. Think about it, when Matt Striker debuted on ECW, it was still somewhat connected to the original atmosphere, in which a teacher gimmick would fail within minutes. However, right now, ECW is officially WWE'ized (which I'm not complaining about by the way), and probably could be a little more successful due to the target age WWE is going for.
I mean, right now WWE is targeting younger kids, that's been stated so many times it's not really even nesessary for me to mention it. What kid hasn't had a teacher they really don't like, the jerk, mean teacher they just can't seem to impress or get on his good side. In essence that what Matt Striker's gimmick is/was. It just couldn't really get over, but now I really think it could with the right push. I guess you would just need to get the right face, the opposite of a mean teacher I guess would be a rebellious, thick headed student, so you would need a character to fit that role, without making it too obvious.
I really enjoy Matt Striker as an announcer, him and Todd Grisham are without a doubt my favorite announce team. He's got a steady gig as a color commentator, but if he were to get into the ring, he has the ability and charisma to be successful. I'm not saying he could be a world champion, but at least a successful mid-carder. This is just something I was thinking about during school today.
Thoughts?
