Josh Lomberger (born November 25, 1980), better known by his ring name Josh Mathews, is an American presenter, announcer, and former professional wrestler signed with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). He is best known for his tenure with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).
Lomberger was a runner-up to Maven and Nidia in the first WWE Tough Enough in 2001. After Tough Enough, Lomberger gained some in-ring experience on the independent circuit and in Xcitement Wrestling Federation, which was run by WWE Hall of Famer Jimmy Hart.
Lomberger was eventually hired by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), and began using the name Josh Matthews. In December 2002, he began appearing as the backstage interviewer for the SmackDown! brand and as an announcer on Velocity. In January 2003, his name was tweaked to Josh Mathews. He also hosted the WWE webcast Byte This! after Kevin Kelly was released. He later hosted several shows on WWE's official website, including Weekly Top 5, The WWE Experience, and After Burn.
Anthony Ralph "Tony" Chimel (born October 11, 1961) is an American professional wrestling ring announcer, and is the longest serving currently employed by WWE.
Before Chimel become a ring announcer, he and Joey Marella were the main ring technicians for the WWE. Chimel then began announcing duties for the company in 1991, working mostly non-televised house shows and filling in for Howard Finkel whenever necessary.
Chimel was the SmackDown ring announcer from its inception in 1999. He was also the ring announcer at SmackDown brand pay-per-views from 2002-2007. He defeated Howard Finkel for the rights to be SmackDown announcer in 1999 in a tuxedo match.
On Kurt Angle's final episode as SmackDown General Manager in 2004, he demanded Chimel to come into the ring and give an apology to him; Chimel complied but then was fired by Angle. He was almost immediately re-hired by Vince McMahon.
From 2005 to 2007 Chimel was involved in a mini-feud with Mr. Kennedy, who claimed that Chimel was not announcing his name with the proper respect that it deserved. This feud included Chimel being punched, being "told to take a bow" (hit in the groin), and having a doughnut shoved in his mouth by Kennedy.
Todd Grisham (born January 9, 1976) is an American sports reporter who, since 2011, has been employed by ESPN. His duties for the network include being the in-studio host for Friday Night Fights as well as a SportsCenter anchor.
Prior to joining ESPN, Grisham worked as a professional wrestling commentator for WWE.
Born in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, Grisham was raised in Bay Minette, Alabama, and attended Baldwin County High School for his freshman year, where he played on the school's soccer team as a forward. His family relocated several times after his freshman year, and Grisham graduated from Orange Park High School in Orange Park, Florida. Grisham attended Wingate University on a soccer scholarship and later transferred to the University of West Georgia, where he received his degree in communications. His first professional job in the television industry was with KTVO of Ottumwa, Iowa, where he worked for a year and a half. He was then a sportscaster for KOLD-TV Tucson for approximately five years before signing a two-year contract with WWE as an announcer, officially joining them on January 14, 2004.
WWE Superstars is a professional wrestling television program produced by WWE that originally aired on WGN America in the United States and is broadcast on the WWE Network. It debuted on April 16, 2009 (2009-04-16) and ended its domestic broadcasting on April 7, 2011 (2011-04-07). After the final domestic TV broadcast the show moved to an internet broadcast format while maintaining a traditional television broadcast in international markets. The show features mid-to-low card WWE superstars and divas, in a format similar to the former show WWE Heat which served the same purpose. "Enhancement talent" bouts also happen often. Big names such as John Cena, Randy Orton and Triple H appeared on the show at its beginning.
On December 19, 2008 (2008-12-19), WWE and WGN America announced an agreement to create a new weekly, one-hour prime time series entitled WWE Superstars that was to debut in April 2009 (2009-04). At the beginning, the show featured stars from all the WWE brands. In early 2009, WGN put out a press release hyping the revived series and revealed its new time slot for its debut. Superstars aired Thursday nights at 8:00PM Eastern/7:00PM Central. A replay aired at noon on Sunday on WGN America. Until early 2010 the replay also aired on WGN-TV. However, it was removed, hence eliminating distribution of the show from the Canadian fanbase.Superstars had its debut show on April 16, 2009 (2009-04-16).
Matthew Kaye (born June 26, 1974) is an American professional wrestler and English language professional wrestling commentator working under the ring name Matt Striker. He is currently an English language commentator primarily for Lucha Underground but also frequently provides English commentary for Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) PPV events in Mexico and New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) PPV events in Japan. He also wrestles on the United States independent circuit and is best known for his time in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) as both a wrestler and commentator. He is also an occasional actor in film and a former high school social studies teacher.
After obtaining a Master's degree in educational psychology, Kaye began working as a high-school teacher. He also began a career in professional wrestling, and made his debut in 2000 after being trained by Johnny Rodz. In early 2005, Kaye quit his full-time teaching job at Benjamin N. Cardozo High School, when the school board found out that he had been using sick days as a way to pursue his wrestling career.

Intercontinental Champion Drew McIntyre makes another impactful statement to Matt Hardy.
You've read about me in the papers
You've seen me on the movie screen
You know everything about me
I'm your late night fantasy
But don't think I can't hear you calling
From the shadow of the 14th row
Cause I've had the same dreams you've had
A few short years ago and that's why I know
You and I
We will climb so high
Superstars
Whoa whoa You and I
And we'll just close our eyes
And become our fantasy
Superstars yes, yes, superstars
Step right this way. Everyone's welcome,
We want your dreams.
The offer's simple, momentary immortality
Cause I've seen them all you know
I've seen them climb and I've seen them fall
I've seen them come and I've seen them go
And through it all there's only one thing that matters
Love - And that's simply
You and I
Yes, You and I
For we are superstars
