WWE Superstars update

Current plans calls for the new WWE Superstars show on WGN America to be taped on both Monday and Tuesday nights. Basically, it's unlikely that the show will receive its own slot for one-night tapings similar to how ECW is taped on Mondays or Tuesdays each week.

As noted earlier, all three brands will be represented on the program. Matches featuring Raw talent will be taped on Monday nights with matches featuring SmackDown talent being taped on Tuesday nights. Matches featuring ECW talent will be interspersed on both nights.

While plans could always change, it is unlikely that the program will have its own broadcast team. Rather, Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler will call matches involving Raw talent that are taped on Monday, with Todd Grisham and Jim Ross calling matches involving SmackDown brand wrestlers. Josh Mathews and Matt Striker will also call matches involving wrestlers from ECW.

On another note, it is unclear whether the show will feature interbrand matches (such as Sim Snuka vs. Kung Fu Naki, DJ Gabriel vs. Ezekiel Jackson, and Ricky Ortiz vs. Dolph Ziggler) or if the matches will only pit talent on the same brand. We should have a better understanding of what WWE has in mind for the program following the television tapings this week.

So it's just a clusterfuck of matches?

Its fine with me, as long as the matches are good.

I heard curt hawkins vs wang yang is 1st match on it. Maybe a dark match on raw though not sure.

 

[CT Styles]

So it's basically a whole show where they'll use the undercard like they should be doing with the first half of their shows?

 

[X-Sterl-X]

Impact at least has some competition now.

 

[Kizza]

I'm guessing it could be the dark matches before each event/show or whatever.

I'm actually lookign forward to this, should we pick it up in Australia. Just a chance to watch the young guys wrestle with none of the crap.

Idk about the young guys considering the first main event is

Spoiler

Taker vs Matt Hardy

. And idk about 'none of the crap' as I can't see that match ending cleanly.

To be honest, Heat and Velocity used to produce a gem or two now and again, I'm hoping for the same with this. Although I'm not sure it's being picked up in the UK? Anyone know anything more on that?

Well it will be on the undercard I guess. And that's a very good first main event.

Yeah i would like to know if UK getting it what channel etc. Ive scanned through sky sports were it will most prob be if it airs over here but cant see anything so if anyone knows if its airing over here and when could you post thanks

No idea re: UK TV... Sky is always really crap with their WWE listings though.

Not the first time I thought this, but with a global product like WWE, you'd half expect them to have the regular TV listings on WWE.com somewhere.....
