WWE Superstars on WGN America
Taped in Milwaukee and Green Bay, WI.

[Q1] The opening video aired, followed by pyro. Why do they even use pyro for this show? Scott Stanford and Josh Matthews welcomed everyone to the show. Natalya's music hit and out she came awkwardly running to the ring. Alicia Fox was next out.

1. Natalya defeated Alicia Fox at 6:31. Stanford hyped Natalya's rematch for the Diva's title this Monday on Raw. Natalya hit some strong take down's to start things out. Natalya hit a shoulder block and a botched spinebuster. The match hit the reset button, and Alicia took over. But not before Natalya applied a surfboard hold in the middle of the ring.

A short time later Alicia hit a snap mare on the ropes and followed with a clothesline for a near fall. Alicia did the splits on the ring, applying one foot to Natalya's head and pulled her arms back. Ouch, for both women. Alicia then followed with a body scissors.

Natalya fought out at 4:20, and both women hit a double clothesline. Alicia was the first to her feet and missed a running knee. Natalya hit a double underhook suplex and then a stall suplex for a near fall. Natalya then took Alicia down and applied the sharpshooter for the win...They hyped a recap of Punk/Cena from Raw. [C]

Dunn's Decision: Not a bad match by any means. Alicia is a bit rough in the ring, but Natalya carried her well. I like watching Natalya, she carries herself well and is pretty innovative. I just wish her match Monday meant something. Just debut Awesome Kong already!

The 2-21-11 video aired. I swear, if its not Sting, this is going to be such a huge disappointment...In the arena Stanford and Matthews talked about Raw as highlights aired...They cut to the Punk/Cena main event in its entirety...The announcers hyped the main event. [C]

Back in the arena, the announcers hyped the celebration of Black History Month. Great Khali made his way out. An unadvertised appearance!

2. Great Khali defeated The Uso's in a 2 on 1 handicap match at 1:58. Khali opened up throwing both men about. Both Uso's recovered by attacking Khali's knee. Both then hit a double sweet chin music for a near fall. Khali got back to his feet and took over again with some clotheslines and headbutts...The main event was hyped. [C]

[Q3] Khali hit the Punjabi Plunge on Jay for the win.

Dunn's Decision: Yay! Khali is back! Meh. This was filler. The Uso's aren't going to be around for very long.

Back in the arena, Striker and Korpela welcomed us back...An Elimination Chamber video aired...Tyler Reks made his way to the ring. [C]

[Q4] Congrats to Ray Allen for becoming the all time leader in three pointers made in NBA history. I just watched him hit the clincher three. Awesome moment with him hugging Reggie Miller...Back in the arena, they recapped the Reks beatdown of Hawkins. Hawkins made his way out.

3. Tyler Reks defeated Curt Hawkins at 3:20. The two did some trash talking before Reks leveled Hawkins with a nasty boot to the face. Reks took control and did some stomping on Hawkins ribs. Reks applied a loose version of the tazzmission that Hawkins fought out of.

Hawkins hit some punches in the middle of the ring, and followed with a spinning elbow. Hawkins then hit a sit down slam for a near fall. Hawkins went to the top but Reks caught him by going to the top and dropping him on the ropes. Reks hit the Burning Hammer for the win...Barreta/Swagger is up next. [C]

Dunn's Decision: Very brief but a lot of fun. Both men were active and didn't settle down for anything. Reks looks like a machine with those final two moves. The Burning Hammer is awesome, but that move on the ropes was sick. Go back and watch this if you missed it.

Swagger's awesome music hit as he came to the ring. Wait, he doesn't get pyro anymore? Barreta was out next.

4. Jack Swagger defeated Trent Barreta at 2:52. Swagger manhandled Barreta with a wrestling slam early, and then hit another. Barreta tried a couple of quick pinfall attempts, but to no avail. Swagger got angry and started wailing on Barreta. Swagger then chucked him across the ring. Then for kicks, he did it again.

Swagger followed with his splash out of the corner for a near fall. He applied an arm lock in the middle of the ring. Barreta fought out and hit a dropkick. Barreta missed an enziguri and Swagger locked in the ankle lock. Barreta tapped shortly after.

Dunn's Decision: A brief squash match. Swagger looked solid and Barreta has some good high flying offense. Too short for a main event though. We probably could have done without the Punk/Cena recap.
