I guess they needed a new Sunday Night Heat since they decided to give some identity to the new ECW.

I miss squash matches against local jobbers. I think they need that kind of show again.

That might just be what they're doing with the new "Superstars."

I was really surprised when my local Fox affiliate advertised that they are now showing Smackdown at 11pm.

guess the MyNetwork switch was a dumbass move.


but Superstars was a show I loved to watch on the weekends...nice to see it come back.

Ive got no problem with the idea. It's really cool to be flipping around bored and land on some wrestling.
