I was watching Raw and I thought to myself how much Miz had fallen off something serious, and then I saw Striker doing a backstage interview and dude fell off something serious.

They were setting this dude up to be the future voice of the WWE and everybody was feeling him on the net and shyt too at the time but it seems like everything just fell apart after he caught feelings at the Royal Rumble when Booker T came back.

As for the Miz though, his career of being epically sonned has been well documented. From being in the main event of Wrestlemania 27 and walking out WWE champion (by not having a fukking thing to do with the ending other than being the one to get the pin) to being on the pre-show at 29 for a one night IC title reign that has the same amount of prestige as the WCW hardcore championship.

I think this shyt is actually a hard call to make honestly...

Gotta go with Miz. Matt Striker never main-evented a Wrestlemania or was ever WWE champ.

Miz stays getting main stream shine and everything though so he is constantly in the mainstream eye, whereas Striker was being labeled as being the new voice of the WWE and now you never see this dude at all....

What led to Striker's downfall as far as annoucing goes? I remember him being apart the three man booths for PPV's with Lawler & cole in 2010, then it just stopped.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was the ''i'm marking out bro'' at the rumble for booker's return.the E hates that shyt,and if they see you as a mark they wont respect you.Heard stories of Steph goin off on creative team members for acting too much like a mark,striker did it live on a ppv,and yes the mcmahons are that petty.or at least seem that way from stories told about them.

When Booker T returned for the Royal Rumble, Striker went full retard. "NO WAY, THIS IS A MARKOUT MOMENT! OH MY GOD! I'M MARKING OUT, BRO!" :snoop: channelled his inner Russo that night

Striker had heat with Lawler, Cole didnt get on with him either

I was watching bryan vs Ziggler from Bragging Rights 2010. And I got the feeling Cole had beef with him. He'd always try to shutdown and bully Striker, when he'd be making his points

Miz.

Striker never had a serious push and was never over to any significant degree. I liked him a lot as a commentator though. I thought the Styles/Striker and Todd/Striker teams were pretty good. Would've rather listened to them on Raw than any other combination Coke Boy comes up with. :manny:

As everyone else said, Striker couldn't get along with Cole & King.

Miz just isn't a main event level talent. That fued with Lawler was dope though.

I could see them being annoyed by the Booker comment but I would just tell him not to do it again and move on. I mean god forbid someone not named Jim Ross, CM Punk in 2010 or JBL sit at that damn table and actually sound excited or at least interested to actually be there.
