Dark Match

1. Ryback (a/k/a Skip Sheffield) defeated JTG. Ryback all the way with power moves. Short squash. Ryback wears a black singlet and is really jacked.

Scott Stamford and Josh Matthews came out for Superstars.

WWE Superstars

1. Alex Riley vs. Mike McGillicutty. No hometown love for Joe Hennig (McGilligutty). Big pop for Riley. McGillicutty kicked out of a jumping DDT and a top rope hip toss to come back and hit a running neckbreaker for the win. Good match with good near falls.

Jason noted that only one upper deck section was tarped off.This is the best Minnesota wrestling crowd in years. Cheers and boos evenly split for John Cena.

2. Tyler Reks (w/Curt Hawkins) defeated Mason Ryan. Reks won with his "cool DDT finisher." The match was solid. Jason assures me he isn't drunk. Setting up for Raw now.
