Reviews/Thoughts:
First of all, my apologies for falling behind on my ratings. Business school has gotten pretty overwhelming, so again, these entries may very well become mostly ratings with a side of thought (if even that).

Mason Ryan returned to action this week after being out for some time due to injury. No doubt who'd win this one...gotta have that successful return. I'm assuming WWE is making Mason grow his hair out to keep away from the "Batista"chants. Pumphandle slam for a finisher, and it didn't look cleanly executed.

And here we go with two random teams just put together. Titus and Percy teaming up this week. I guess Percy was deemed ready for a main roster callup -- even if it's just Superstars. Tyler and Curt teaming up...sure, I guess. Impressive leaping ability from Percy. Thought it was a bit peculiar that the face team was put in the right-hand corner away from the cameras. Good tag team finisher from the heels.

Divas match here between two divas who were once friends but now enemies. Alicia is deemed the "Long-Legged Lolita." Good nickname. Alicia's axe kick was pretty bad here.

Brodus got some time to destroy another hometown hero.

Superstars got a FIFTH match in tonight, and clearly the best one of the show. First of all, this match got the most time. But also, these two just seemed to gel pretty well. Slater's improving, and DB is just a damn great performer. Slater looked real good here. I liked the DDT into a guillotine finisher.
