Superstars: August 30, 2040

Opening Match: Alexander Piero, Kerry Cemenko, Kyle Jacobs vs. Orlando Kincaid, Quentin McDaniels, Xavier Cross
Shoot, why not build off of SummerSlam's matches and feuds and kick things off with something sweet like a 6-man? Of course with that mentality of me wanting to go all in, guns blazing, the game decides to go "LOL, dud show". Well, regardless Jacobs gets the honor here to pick the pin for his team by countering Kincaid's OK Corral in the Legacy Bomb for the win. *****, 84% overall.

Who should decide to join us next but the new Unified World Champion himself, Noah Carmichael! He's not looking too good all things considered. He talks about the nightmare that was Hell in a Cell at SummerSlam. With all of the violence and brutality that went down, he has to admit to a grave mistake in making a huge underestimation...namely he underestimated himself as to how much damage he was actually capable. He surprised himself. The only thing that was an even bigger surprise was someone like Salvatore Scabbia finding the stones to do what he did after the match. Of course, if someone is on a stretcher barely capable of staying conscious, how much stones does Scabbia even really have? He sure as hell let his woman talk a big game on Raw, what with throwing around challenges and what not. He doesn't know about a match but he's definitely down with kicking Scabbia's ass right here and right now!

Cue Lisa Benton to come out and try to diffuse things. She gets the degree of how upset Carmichael is but all this talk about championship matches and fights needs to be tabled for another time. For one thing, Scabbia isn't even here. Secondly, Carmichael looks in no shape for any kind of physical altercation, sanctioned or otherwise. The best thing for the champion to do right now is to go home, recuperate, and let her worry about the i's and t's regarding his next opponent.

Carmichael scoffs at this but agrees to take his leave. However, he gets in her face and tells her he doesn't envy her position but the one person who's going to need to be doing all of the worrying is Salvatore Scabbia.

Backstage, Luscious is with TOP LEGAL COUNSEL Galino & Farnes. They want to talk about the OUTRAGEOUS actions undertaken by Jordan Demiras and Martyn LaSalle on Raw. Nobody was informed as to whether or not Jordan Demiras would be present at the show which constitutes a clear case of false advertising and fraud! Demiras and LaSalle are lucky they haven't been drowned after swimming in deposition documents after such blatant statute violations! Demiras and LaSalle's business with Michael Hotbody is over and done and they need to be warned about the potential consequences of any further aggression on their behalf.

Second Match: Billie Padgett vs. Tania
This is hardcore rules and will end the feud between these two and hopefully they'll be better off with their respective teams. Padgett has the advantage here, obviously, but Tania shows she can hang as she's no slouch herself. It's enough to overcome the DUD factor, too. Tania picks up the duke after hitting a Nose Dive on Padgett through a table. *****, 89% overall.

Backstage, WWE Women's Champion Naomi is with Eclypse, having just watched the previous match. Naomi fears that Tania is going to want to use that outing as a springboard into a potential rematch against her for the title. Naomi tells Eclypse that threats will come in all forms from all directions when you're the champion. Eclypse counters that she already knows that seeing that she's a former Women's Champion herself. But Naomi is right about one thing: the two of them are one hell of a threat to the Women's Tag Team Titles. They just need to regroup and get back on the same page. Naomi tells Eclypse to hold her horses as she doesn't see that as a priority right now. Besides, Eclypse has to admit that she kind of dropped the ball at SummerSlam. With that, Naomi takes her leave as Eclypse appears insulted.

Third Match: Nigel Gallagher vs. Zachary Vale
Well poop on a stick. Having these guys try to follow the last match was pretty stupid as they take a beating in terms of heat. It's still good but they got seriously short-changed. Nigel picks up the win with the Union Smack. ****1/4, 72% overall.

Fourth Match: The Dillingers vs. The Wolves of Wall Street
Come on, Dillingers, help me recover from that last segment. Another awesome outing from them, thankfully, as they still have their eyes set on Galino & Farnes. Ben gets the win over London after hitting the Dillinger Escape Plan. *****, 85% overall.

Backstage, Vivian Merrick is with the Tag Team Champions who wants to mock all of the other tag teams stumbling over each other in a mad dash to become the team that might be the ones to dethrone the Future Foundation. Every team from the Dillingers to the Wyldhearts needs to understand they're simply in the wrong time.

Fifth Match: Shawn Dangerson vs. Brody Lee
We finally get Shawn back in action after some not-so-thinly-veiled hints at a challenge to the Cruiserweight Title from his manager. We don't get any kind of update on that front but we do get Shawn strutting his stuff and making more and more of a stronger case to be the frontrunner. He picks up the win after getting Lee to submit to the Danger Zone. Jason Sorola runs down to be a dick and beat up Dangerson afterwards. ****1/2, 83% overall. CURSE YOU DUD SHOW!!!

Sixth Match: WWE Women's Tag Team Champions The Lonely Girls vs. C4
Brooke, of course, accompanies her girls and makes the claim that she's sitting on a boatload of future champions. She reiterates her challenge to Noah Carmichael and demands that he watch this match as proof of her managing and coaching capabilities. Anyways, Faith and Jenna always give the finger to the DUD show and have themselves another good outing. Jenna looks to be in trouble as Faith is on the outside with Carmella and Brooke looks like she's going to give an assist to Cordelia. HOLD THE PHONE! Noah Carmichael makes his way out to give Brooke the stink eye. Brooke pauses herself to talk some trash back and that's all the opening Jenna needs to send Cordelia into Brooke and finish things off with the Kyle Driver for the pin. ****1/2, 82% overall.

MAIN EVENT: WWE Intercontinental Champion Seth Von Kamp vs. Zed Jones
Luscious informs us that Michael Hotbody will be returning tomorrow night on SmackDown! to help address everything that's going on right now. She wants him to know that we're all thinking of him and that we all anticipate him coming back. In the meantime, Zed wants to dedicate this match to him and Luscious wants this to be a warning as to what's in store for anyone thinking about sticking their noses in the business of Michael Hotbody! This is a decent enough main event, all things considered. Seth looks like he's got things well in hand but that pesky Brandon Reigns is still furious over losing the championship and decides to run down for the DQ. We go off the air with Reigns continuing to beat the piss out of the Intercontinental Champion. ****1/2, 82% overall.
