8. When social awkwardness goes wrong

Matt Striker was new to the scene when he put SmackDown in a negative light, comparing it to Raw. Then, when he was called into Wrestler’s Court (it was never specified if it was because of that incident or he came across as obnoxious) he was advised to bribe the judges Undertaker, JBL and Booker T with various purchases of alcohol.

Striker failed to do so and was called out by JBL one night. It was said that JBL challenged Striker to a fight and Striker accepted on the grounds he was going to get served, literally.

With that, JBL realized that Striker stood up for himself and backed off. Striker said later that when he’s nervous he becomes a chatterbox and that could have been the reason as to why he rubbed people the wrong way.
