    Thank you, thank you, thank you to Jason Mann of Wrestlespective for using one of my favorite old Bobby Heenan jokes for the title of this week’s Power Poll.  Ready?  Here we go!

    Power Poll 9/29/10: Well, he urn-ed it!

    1. Randy Orton (Last week: 1)

    The Viper has set a record for most weeks at number one on the Power Poll – which, given the short time frame that the poll has been around, isn’t nearly as impressive as it sounds.  Still, the WWE Champion manages to hang on to the top spot this week with his dismantling of Chris Jericho on RAW.  (My vote: 2)

    2. Kane (3)

    The World Heavyweight Champion moves up a spot this week to number two after destroying Chris Masters and calling out his brother The Undertaker on SmackDown.  (My vote: 7)

    3. Undertaker (NR)

    Speaking of The Undertaker, the power of the urn returns to him in the form of Paul Bearer at his side.  Finally shifting the balance of power to his half of the dark side, the Phenom jumps from obscurity to the number 3 spot on the Power Poll (My vote:  4)

    4. John Cena (5)

    Let the instant replay in professional wrestling debate begin!  The anonymous General Manager of RAW restarted Cena’s match with Edge after the Rated R Superstar pinned Cena with his foot under the bottom rope, leading to an STF victory for Cena.  The GM, on the other hand, wasn’t so lucky… (My vote: NR)

    5. Daniel Bryan (2)

    The United States Champion may have bit off more than he can chew when he inadvertently hit tag team partner John Morrison following their loss on Monday.  He now finds himself in a triple threat match with former WWE Tag Team Champions at Hell In A Cell.  (My vote:  NR)

    6. The Miz (4)

    He’s The Miz, and he pinned Bryan Daniel clean this past Monday on RAW.  The second part of the US Championship triple threat at Hell in a Cell, Mr. Money In The Bank drops two spots this week.  (My vote:  9)

    7. Sheamus (10)

    The former WWE Champion must’ve done something to redeem himself this week, since he’s moved back up three slots to number seven.  Destroying The Great Khali, even if it was with chairs, will do that, fella!  (My vote: 5)

    8. Wade Barrett (8)

    The leader of the Nexus coached the team of Heath Slater and Justin Gabriel to victory over Evan Bourne and Mark Henry, then joined in on the post match beatdown of Bourne.  He faces John Cena at Hell In A Cell – can he win and prevent Nexus from disbanding?  (My vote:  NR)

    9. CM Punk (NR)

    With an out of nowhere victory over former Straight Edge Society running buddy Luke Gallows, CM Punk returns to the Power Poll.  (My vote:  3)

    10. Edge (NR)

    After having a pinfall victory overturned by the anonymous General Manager, the Rated R Superstar finally had enough and destroyed the GM’s computer.  Maybe now we’ll finally find out who the GM is.  (My vote: 1)


    Dropped out:     Alberto Del Rio, Dolph Ziggler, John Morrison

    Also voted on by me: Alberto Del Rio (6), The Pope (8), and John Morrison (10)

    Night of Champions fall out is the theme of the night… sort of. See, WWE has another PPV in two Sundays – Hell in a Cell. As a result, one could expect continuity of most storylines towards that event. Or so logic would lead one to believe… The suffrage commences now!

    How now, Brown Cow?! I’m back for another rousing edition of WWE Superstars.  Here we go.

    Match 1:  Goldust vs William Regal

    William Regal wins with the running knee to the head.  Who cares?!  These two should not be squarring off against each other.  They should be helping build up the younger talent.

    Match 2:  Vance Archer and Curt Hawkins vs The Dudebusters

    The Dudebusters get the win after Trent Beretta hits the rope walking DDT on Archer.  These two team are horrific.  I can almost get behind Archer and Hawkins because of their dynamic, but the Dudebusters absolutely suck.

    Main Event:  Drew McIntyre vs Chris Masters

    Drew McIntyre on Superstars?!  OK???  Who’s cereal did he pee in?  He gets the win in a pretty competitive matchup with the Future Shock DDT.

    That’s it for this week.  See you soon.

    Welcome everyone to yet another edition of something something. When it comes to longevity, I have no clue on it (or do I). All that I can say is that the State fair is in town and since I’m going today, I need to get this done so I can have a fried (insert random food here): (more…)

    Hey everybody.  It’s your favorite WWE Superstars reviewer.  I am here this week with actual thoughts this week instead of the generic results.  Enjoy!

    Match 1: Santino Marella and Vladimir Kozlov vs William Regal and Primo Colon

    In the opening minutes of the match, Santino pulled off a Primo cartwheel and started power-walking off the ropes as William Regal just watched in confusion. Fear the Cobra!  If he wasn’t funny, he would have been released a long time ago. I think this might be a last ditch effort to do something with Kozlov. Everything else has failed, so why not put him in a tag team. Primo has seemingly found a home on Superstars and lucky to still have a job. Regal is being underutilized.  He was perfect as the GM on RAW. 

    As far as the match goes, the end comes when Primo goes for high flying cross body off the top rope and Kozlov catches him and drops him with the Iron Curtain. The winners of the match are Vladimir Kozlov and Santino Marella.

    Match 2: Chris Masters vs Caylen Croft of the Dudebusters

    Why haven’t they done more with Chris Masters? He’s the type of guy who should be in the Mark Henry role or chasing the US Title. I can’t stand the Dudebusters. They suck hard!  Croft spends the majority of the match getting beat down like the jobber he should be, but he gets the victory after hitting a chop block and a DDT. The world is in complete disaray now as Caylen Croft picks up the victory over Chris Masters.

    Main Event: MVP w/Percy “Oh Yeah” Watson vs Chavo Guerrero

    Once upon a time there was a heavily hyped new superstar on Smackdown. He was pushed and eventually became a multiple time US Champion. He then was moved to RAW and is now lost on Superstars most weeks. That superstar is MVP.

    Once upon a time there was another superstar who was part of a great wrestling family. He was a very good Cruiserweight, but then he became Kerwin White. After tragedy struck, he re-adopted his God given name and became the WWECW Champion. He lost in 8 seconds to a Big Red Monster, became a forgotten member of another family (La Familia), and then became a forgotten member of the WWE roster. He is now a staple of Superstars too. His name is Chavo Guerrero.

    MVP picks up the win with the Play of the Day. Let this be a lesson; If you have a heavily hyped debut on Smackdown, you will probably end up on Superstars eventually. This means you, Alberto Del Rio. I’m sure I’ll be seeing you soon enough on WWE Superstars. And I’m hoping to see all of you again next week for another exhilirating show.

    Match 1: Chris Masters and MVP w/Percy Watson vs The Dudebusters

    MVP picks up the win for his team after he hit the 305 on Caylen Croft.

    Match 2: Chavo Guerrero vs JTG

    Chavo gets a rare win with the Frog Splash.

    Match 3: Yoshi Tatsu vs Primo Colon

    Primo gets the win after he stole his brother’s finisher. 

    Main Event:  The Hart Dynasty vs The Uso’s

    The Hart Dynasty gets the win with the Hart Attack.  It was kinda cool looking.  The Hart Attack was on Jay, but Tyson Kidd saw Jimmy coming and drop kicked him at the same time.

    Hola!  Como estas?  That’s the extent of my Spanish.  Let’s delve into this thing.

    Match 1:  JTG vs Caylen Croft of Dudebuster fame w/Trent Baretta

    I hate JTG’s straight hair.  It’s time for him to go back to the braids.  Speaking of JTG, has anyone seen Shad Gaspard lately?  The Dudebusters suck…plain and simple.  They won’t last long.  Speaking of not lasting long, has anyone seen Shad Gaspard lately?  JTG hits the Shout Out for the victory.  He grabs some kiddies and celebrates in the ring with them. 

    Match 2:  Luke Gallows w/ Serena vs Chris Masters

    I like Masters, but he will never rise above being a lower mid-card performer.  It’s rather unfortunate, because he is better than what most people think.  Gallows should be further along than he is.  Wrestling at house shows and every so often on Superstars is not indicative of progress.  It’s almost time to break up the S.E.S if the only one getting over is CM Punk.  He can do what he’s doing on his own.  I digress.  Luke Gallows gets the win with the Gallows Pole. 

    Match 3:  Jillian vs Brie Bella

    I HATE Diva’s wrestling!  I will say that the Bella’s are smoking hot though.  Nikki and Brie switch places at the end of the match when the referee was distracted.  Nikki rolls up Jillian for the win.  The official winner of the match is Brie Bella.

    Main Event:  R-Truth vs William Regal

    The WWE really dropped the ball with R-Truth.  He held the US Title for about 3 weeks and then drops it and is sent directly to Superstars duty.  The guy is super over and super talented, but he just can’t catch a break.  Regal should find a tag team partner (Kozlov doesn’t count) and go after the Unified Tag Titles.  RTruth gets the win with the Lie Detector.

    That’s it for this week.  Catch ya later.

    SUPERSTAR!

    It looks like we will get a look at what happened on NXT according to my DVR description.

    But first…

    Match 1:  Maryse and Jillian Hall vs The Bella Twins

    Meh…standard Diva’s match.  While the Bella’s and Maryse are hot, I HATE Diva wrestling.  Maryse hits the French Kiss for the win.  After the match, Maryse and Jillian harrass the Bella’s a little bit more until Eve Torres comes to the rescue.

    Match 2:  Vladimir Kozlov vs Random Jobber A

    If I have to tell you who wins, then there is something wrong with you.

    NXT Lookback

    In case you missed it, Michael Tarver and Daniel Bryan (who is now known by his real name of Brian Danielson) were eliminated due to their comments last week and Skip Sheffield was eliminated by the pros.

    Match 3:  Vance Archer and Curt Hawkins vs Random Jobbers B and C

    While we haven’t seen Vance Archer in a few months on WWE TV, Curt Hawkins hasn’t been for alot longer than that.  Hawkins and Archer get the win here.  I guess this is a last ditch effort for these two guys.  Very random tag team.  After the match, Archer tells everybody to pay attention.  Hawkins says it couldn’t have been that easy to forget about him.  He says they have been given contract for 30 days to make an impact.  Whatever…

    Main Event:  Dolph Ziggler vs Chris Masters

    At least this match sort of makes sense.  These are two guys looking to get in the Intercontinental Title picture.  Ziggler wins with the Zig Zag.  This was a pretty good match…too bad nobody cares about them.

    That’s it for tonight.  See ya next week.

    Hey, everybody.  This week’s episode of Superstars was fairly entertaining.  It at least furthered some storylines.

    Match 1: Carlito vs Primo

    Throughout the match, Carlito looked really apprehensive about apply any offense to his brother.  The end of the match saw Carlito grab a mic and tell Primo to quit wasting his career and rejoin with him.  Now the Colon’s are back together as a tag team contender and this match has no ending.

    Match 2: Chavo Guerrero vs Chris Masters

    This was the typical Superstars match-up that we normally get.  Two guys that have no real direction and are thus thrown into a random match.  Masters gets the win with the Masterlock after countering the Three Amigos.

    Backstage Segment:

    Michelle McCool and Layla walk into Kelly Kelly’s locker room and tell her she stinks, then try to hold her down for Vickie Guerrero to spray her with deodorant.  Beth Phoenix and Tiffany walk in and break it up.

    Main Event:  Shad Gaspard vs JTG

    This match was a good Superstars main event because it was a rematch from the Extreme Rules PPV.  Shad gets the win with the STO after blocking a Shout Out.  This fued is dying out now, especially considering they put it on Superstars.  We shall have to wait and see where these two go after this.

    That’s it for this week.  Check back in again next week for another Superstars.
