Josh Matthews hasn’t exactly won the wrestling world over since he left the WWE in 2014. He found work soon enough, taking over as the lead commentator for TNA’s Impact Wrestling, but he’s often found himself the butt end of broadcasting jokes, from colleagues to fans alike. But the past few days, he’s found himself the scorn of not only one workmate, but a former TNA regular as well, being roasted soundly for days on end.

It all started on February 11, 2016, when Matthews, on an episode of the Impact web series “My First Day”, stated that “I think I’m the best play-by-play announcer in the world, there’s nobody that can touch what I do out there.” Initially, this lead to some jabs from Matthews’ Impact co-worker and ring announcer, Jeremy Borash.

ENTER SHARK BOY
But then former TNA wrestler Shark Boy entered the fray. Like his namesake, he could smell blood in the water and boy, did he pounce. Since February 15, Shark Boy has continued to roast Josh Matthews on a daily basis, despite being blocked by the Impact commentator shortly after the carnage began.
Without further adieu, here’s some of the best from Shark Boy’s roasting of Impact’s Josh Matthews.
Better than Gordon Solie? Better than Tony Schiavone? Give me a break, @realjoshmathews! You couldn't carry either of their mic cables.

Just found out @IMPACTWRESTLING was fined heavily by the FCC last week for showing an asshole on screen. pic.twitter.com/oBDK790eiN

Most people wouldn't piss on @realjoshmathews if he was on fire… But I would be REALLY tempted.

The biggest difference between #DonaldTrump and @realjoshmathews is Trump still has people saying, "Come on, let's give this guy a chance."

If @realjoshmathews suddenly turned into a flaming bag of dog shit on the porch… Would anyone hear it?

Before I head off to bed, I'd like to say something positive about @realjoshmathews… But I can't think of one thing so goodnight everybody

The spot next to the curtain is named the "Gorilla position" after #GorillaMonsoon. The 3rd stall in the Impact Zone restroom is the "Josh".

My hope is that one day @howardfinkel will work alongside @realjoshmathews so we can finally have the Fink and the Stink. #I'mADreamer

What's the difference between God and Josh Matthews?… God doesn't think he's Josh Matthews.

That's because pineapples have more personality than @realjoshmathews. One is a prickly source of goodness and the other is just a prick. https://t.co/YXSX2gwc6S

Once Josh has one, I will do it! https://t.co/vQYNKTCHqX

Had some stomach pain when I first woke up this morning, but I took a good @realjoshmathews and now I feel much better.

If you miss @IMPACTWRESTLING tonight, you will be missing some of the most talented performers in the world… and @realjoshmathews.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 16, 2017
So Disco has publicly sided with Josh now?… Congratulations, Josh, you must feel like Trump did when he got that David Duke endorsement. https://t.co/49VBhEbA1h

A link is going around that says CLICK HERE FOR JOSH MATTHEWS INTERVIEWS… Don't click on it!… It takes you to Josh Matthews interviews.

Lots of complaints to @DonWestDeals about the Josh Matthews Package. Apparently it's too small and the only one who ever handles it is Josh.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 18, 2017
I can't stand all of these people hating on @realjoshmathews… without including me.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 19, 2017
Remember that time @realjoshmathews knocked it out of the park on commentary?… Neither do I.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 19, 2017
Based on feedback, it seems like wrestling fans genuinely don't like @realjoshmathews… and the same numbers report they don't like cancer.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 19, 2017
Hey, @realjoshmathews, if you think @wwehornswoggle is short, wait until the length of time you have left on TV commentary comes up.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 19, 2017
My biggest hope is that @the_ironsheik will break the back of @realjoshmathews and make him humble… Am I asking too much?
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 19, 2017
Want 2 applaud the beautiful Enziguri kick I saw on @IMPACTWRESTLING 2 weeks ago, or as Josh Matthews calls it "that flippy head kick thing"
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 20, 2017
Of all the things I am looking forward to Josh Matthews announcing the most, his retirement has got to be my favorite. pic.twitter.com/XIJ8yMdl5H

I feel like everybody should lay off Josh Matthews… Especially the company TNA. #LayHimOff

A new spin on the "morning after" pill that prevents pregnancy: It's called the "moment of" pill and it involves a pic of Josh Matthews.

Out of curiosity, I Googled "Josh Matthews" earlier tonight and Google replied with "Me either".

I feel like if Josh Matthews was a hip dance move that's here to stay, he would be the Macarena.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 20, 2017
I feel like I've wasted a lot of time referring to Josh Matthews as "stupid" and "misinformed"… He's also "incompetent'.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 20, 2017
Just watched the "Best of Josh Matthews" DVD I received from @DonWestDeals… If only I could get those 9 minutes back.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 20, 2017
Caught the beginning of #RAW tonight. My favorite thing about the show is the fact that Josh Matthews isn't on it.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 21, 2017
Well, in my defense, there are TONS of similarities between Josh Matthews and a dead horse… Let's start with his personality… https://t.co/uHX8GhPGsr
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 21, 2017
Josh Matthews said recently he watches #TheBachelor instead of #RAW.. This will come as no surprise to anyone who has heard him commentate.
— Shark Boy (@SharkBoy24_7) February 21, 2017
And that’s the fishing line, cause Shark Boy said so.
