1. Dolph Ziggler vs. Mason Ryan.
No Vickie Guerrero this time. 2nd week in a row she's missed Superstars. I guess WWE.com isn't the best place for someone with her lack of personality. Ziggler has had his issues with Brodus Clay of late, but is it worth the risk taking on someone slightly bigger in Ryan? Maybe. Ziggler gave Scott Stanford his jacket, just for kicks, to the amusement of Matt Striker, who referred to Ziggler as the love child of Ken Patera & Adrian Adonis. Um, ok. The bloom's fallen off the rose for Ryan, having been banished to Superstars. It's a wonder he hasn't been further banished to NXT. Oh, wait....! The finish sees Ryan miss a corner charge, and Ziggler connects with the Zig Zag. Winner: Dolph Ziggler.
2. Michael McGillicutty vs. Zack Ryder.
Ok, I get it. Zack & Striker are not friends. They come from two different sections of New York. That'll happen. McGillicutty is coming off a win on NXT over Percy Watson, but in order to get the attention of John Laurinaitis and his flunkies, he needs to start winning on Superstars. Not tonight. They gave these two some time. McGillicutty broke out the axe to the back of the head after dodging the Rough Ryder, but the second time around, not so lucky, as Zack hits his finisher to pick up another win. Winner: Zack Ryder.
HHH-Lesnar is replayed.
3. Great Khali vs. Jinder Mahal.
The brothers in law meet again, and despite Jinder's efforts to attack the already injured knees of Khali, he isn't able to apply the Camel Clutch. Khali gets back to a vertical base, and plants Mahal with the Punjabi Plunge. Don't forget the Nestea! Winner: Great Khali.
The show closes with the John Cena-John Laurinaitis angle from Raw.
