The fourth Superstars broadcast featured more star power than last week's skippable show, but was lacking in the "wrestling department." I did like Chris Jericho vs. John Morrison, but Morrison's babyface turn without him actually doing anything to turn babyface continues to irk me. The act is classic heel, but WWE can't tone him down too much or else he loses part of what makes him a star.

The opening segment between Edge and Jeff Hardy was formula Edge-Hardy material, but it worked well to set up their Judgment Day PPV title match. Hardy fans are given reason to believe Jeff will win the title, which should help PPV buys, but reality is that Hardy always looks strong on TV so that when he loses a PPV title match, it doesn't hurt his character's perception.

Finlay vs. Zack Ryder was fine, but Ryder losing in four minutes doesn't give me much confidence he's going to be anything more than another Rob Conway/Simon Dean mid-card heel with a cocky, arrogant, into-me-myself-and-I gimmick. Understandably, though, Finlay needed to be kept strong for his program against Tyson Kidd, who is a star in the making.

This was a solid Superstars episode, but not as good as last week. It did get off to a good start with The Cutting Edge featuring guest Jeff Hardy. It was a good idea to have this segment, as WWE needs to have stars of the caliber of Edge and Hardy on Superstars, but they can't afford to give away matches with those stars every week. The Cutting Edge featured good mic work from Edge. I liked how he bridged his comments from his previous feud with John Cena to his current feud with Hardy. Hardy was a bit better than usual on the mic. I also enjoyed the main event, although I question not advertising Chris Jericho vs. John Morrison ahead of time. But, the match was good, especially the final few minutes. The Shelton Benjamin distraction was OK, but it would have been much better if his match against Morrison last week on Smackdown had been more competitive.

The one negative on the show was the comedy "Divas" tag match. I was glad to see Kelly Kelly have a little bit of ring time, and I don't mind them attempting a comedy match. But, the comedy fell flat. I haven't been a big fan of Santina Marella and this was no different. It just didn't make me laugh.

Nothing horribly bad on this show, but nothing to really get excited about either. The Cutting Edge segment was fine, but I wasn't a big fan of Edge rehashing his Cena speech for Hardy. The Divas tag match wasn't much, as it was there for pure comedy and didn't seem to advance the Santina/Beth Phoenix storyline any.

Morrison vs. Jericho was good, but I'm not buying Morrison as a face yet. Give me a reason to care about Morrison as a face WWE, I'm begging you. It looks like they're going more in the direction of a Shelton vs. Morrison feud rather than Morrison vs. Jericho, which could disappoint some that want Morrison in the main event picture right now. Finlay vs. Zack Ryder wasn't much; again, give me a reason to care (positively or negatively) about Zack Ryder.
