WWE Superstars on WGN America
Taped in Boston, Mass. and Albany, NY

By Marv Hermanstyne

[Q1] The opening montage was aired and the Raw team welcomed us to Superstars. Teddy and the lovely Maryse made their way to the ring. Goldust was put over by the announcers.

1. Ted DiBiase defeated Goldust in 12:15. Ted started with an wrist lock and Goldust countered with his comedy and some arm drags takedowns. Ted went to Maryse for comfort and eventually got back in the ring. The crowd was chanting, "Let's go Goldust" and he hit one of his signature uppercuts. Goldust then worked on Ted's arm and clotheslined him out of the ring. Goldust hit another uppercut to Ted and threw him into the security railing.

Maryse distracted Goldust and Ted slammed Goldust's head into the ring post and threw him into the ring stairs. [C]

The show returned with Ted applying n headlock to Goldust and he clotheslined him for a two count. Ted kicked Goldust in the gut for a nearfall. Ted applied his weight on Goldust and when the ref was not looking, Maryse smacked him. Goldust tried to get back on offense briefly, but Ted hit an neckbreaker and a Irish Whip for a nearfall.

Ted hit the Million Dollars Fists of Doom for a nearfall. Ted applied an chokehold to Goldust and Goldust countered with a clothesline and uppercut. Goldust hit a atomic drop and bulldog for a nearfall.

[Q2] Goldust hit punches and a scoop slam for a nearfall. Ted went for Dream Street but he turned it into a Facebuster. Goldust went for the Curtain Call but Ted grabbed the ropes tripped Goldust and hit Dream Street for the win…

Mind of Marv: Nice win for Dibiase because he has really been buried on Raw and he needs to go to Smackdown next month. Trade Dibiase to Smackdown for Hornswoggle and all will be well…

Maryse made out with Ted after the match and the NXT Rebound was shown…

Mind of Marv: Kaval and Riley should be a nice edition to Smackdown if they put them on there. But what I don't want to see is Nexus Lite or Nexus Wolfpack(on SD) because the season two rookies had a big ass clusterf--- beatdown angle at the end of the show.

The announcers hyped the NXT Diva season…[C]

2. Santino Marella (w/ Vlad Kozlov) defeated Jimmy Uso (w/ Jay and Tamina) in 3:30. The first minute of the match was Santino acting like a Mortal Kombat character on crack. Santino tried a drop toe hold but Jimmy smacked him, hit a scoop slam and a splash for a nearfall. Santino hit a hip toss but Jimmy DDTed Santino's arm and worked on the arm. Jimmy hit a Irish Whip and missed a splash in the corner. Santino hit a split and splashed on Jimmy for a nearfall. Jimmy hit an Samoan Drop and went of the Superfly Splash but Santino put his knees up and pinned Jimmy.

Post match, Tamina got in the ring and stared Santino down and gave him the feather necklace. Santino acting all tender, Tamina kissed his fist and suddenly his "Cobra" feels better…

Mind of Marv: This was a forgettable throwaway comedy match and this Tamina smitten angle with Santino is shitty as hell. She's really not attractive and I can easily see them hooking her up with Santino and dumping the Usos because they have become very irrelevant since their feud with the Harts…

Kofi vs. Chavo is hyped for later tonight…[C] [Q3]

The Smackdown team took over and a Sheamus hype video was shown. The highlights from China were also shown. Kofi Kingston came out to an mega pop from the crowd…[C]

3. Kofi Kingston defeated Chavo Guerrero in 14:05. Both men lock up and Kofi leg dragged Chavo. Chavo was fake limping around and Kofi hit a standing dropkick to Chavo. Kofi hit a flying crossbody for a nearfall. Kofi began to work on Chavo's arm.

[Q4] Kofi started to attack Chavo's knee by slamming it and hitting a low dropkick. Chavo tried to thron Kofi but he caught his balance and tossed Chavo outside of the ring. Kofi tried a crossbody but Chavo tripped Kofi on the side of the ring. [C]

The show returned with Chavo having the advantage by working on Kofi's leg. Chavo slammed Kofi's knee on the ringpost and splashed on Kofi for a nearfall. Chavo kept working on Kofi's knee by bending it on the rope. Kofi came back on offense by punching Chavo out in the corner but Chavo hit a nice kick to Kofi for a nearfall. Chavo pressed his weight on Kofi and Kofi countered with a neckbreaker.

Kofi hit his offense and the SOS for a nearfall but Chavo grabbed the ropes. Kofi hit a big boot to Chavo's head and he hit the Boom Drop. Kofi went for the TIP, but he limped and went for a lateral press and Chavo used his knees to block the move. Chavo hit the Three Amigos and went for the Frog Splash but Kofi knocked Chavo off. Kofi went for a Super Plex but Chavo pushed him off. Chavo went for the Frog Splash but Kofi hit the TIP from the ropes for the win.

Mind of Marv: Pretty decent main event to close the show. Kofi needs to an main event babyface on Smackdown because he's becoming an star before our eyes. Overall, this was a B+ worthy show…
