Goldust starts the match on fire delivering some arm-drags to the third-generation wrestler. Dibiase gets the advantage after a kick to the gut, and hits some of his gritty offense on Goldust until getting slapped by his opponent which leads to being hit by two shoulder-blocks into a nearfall.

Overall Thoughts: This was a very good episode of Superstars. It had a great main event and a fun opener, and atleast had some alright comedy in the middle match with Santino Marella. Cole and Lawler were sure to let us know that RAW has had 900 superstars, which got annoying after the tenth time they said it. Still was a fun Superstars and I really am enjoying the Chavo Guerrero and Goldust matches on Superstars.
