I think IRS inadvertently told all of the child fans where babies come from.

 

This is a riot. "You can't spare $1 to support the democratic process? What are you, some type of subversive?"

 

Like Pete said, these vignettes do a great job of everything except explaining why exactly he's a wrestler.

I think it's about time that Mike gets down to business, and I don't mean Mr. Schyster's audits either. Seriously, it's three weeks after Tax Day, so what's the sense of him being around if we're not at least going to get some clue that he wrestles? If you didn't know that IRS was Mike Rotundo, would you have him pegged for a wrestler based on what you've seen so far? I know I wouldn't.

 

Yes, these skits are cleverly done, but as they stand now they're completely irrelevant. You could say the same for the Million Dollar Man and Mr. Perfect skits if you were in the mood to nitpick, I guess, but even most WWF-only fans had at least heard the names of Ted DiBiase and Curt Hennig in passing, and Vince made sure to introduce them as such. Who or what the hell is an Irwin R. Schyster, and how come we've never heard of him as it pertains to wrestling? Vince better answer that question really soon before this gimmick tires itself out without Mike ever stepping in the ring.
