Mike’s Thoughts

This was about as average as an episode of WWE Superstars can get. The only thing of note was the final match of ECW on the show. I?ve never been a huge fan of WWE’s version of ECW so I?m not particularly sad to see it go. Now that the show is over the talent will be spread out for the brands so I?m excited to have some of them on Smackdown. I?m looking forward to the final episode. Then it’s on to NXT, which I?m really interested in.

Final Rating: * ?
