Wrestler Matt Striker stoppd by the studio to talk about the WWE Superstars on WGN, and SmackDown and ECW at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday, April 28.

WWE Superstars will feature WWE Superstars and Divas from all three WWE brands -- RAW, SmackDown and ECW -- in one program. WWE Superstars will be available on WGN America in HD and air on Thursday nights at 8pm and 11pm with an additional airing on Sundays at 12pm.

Striker is a native of Bayside, Queens and intended on becoming a teacher. He wrestled in the evenings while maintaining his teaching job. In fall 2004, he began teaching at Cardozo High School. However, Striker had to resign after his students recognized him from wrestling, and when he took sick days from his teaching job to wrestle in Japan. National coverage of this incident launched him into his WWE career.
