Fans are still filing in because the doors are a little slow tonight. Gabriel and Kidd did great and the crowd reacted fairly well to them.

Kidd and Gabriel are getting beat pretty bad, but the crowds warming up a little. Sort of slow at the moment. Good tag work from Hawkins and Reks. Gabriel is struggling to make the tag, but got it. Kidd is coming from behind. Gabriel flew over the top and took out Hawkins. Kidd from the top rope with the finisher to Reks and got the win for his team. The crowd reacted well to the match.

2. Zack Ryder defeated Michael McGillicutty. Good pop for Ryder. Not much reaction for Michael. Lots of Woos to start the match. Not much action right now. Quiet crowd,yet very pro Ryder. It picked up with more "Let's go Ryder" chants. Ryder went for the Woo Woo Woo kick and got it, went for pin but only got two. He hit his finisher for the win.

Dan notes that fans were taking photos with Charles Robinson before Superstars began.
