The next show I saw is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/08/wwe-superstars-1242014.html

Alex Riley and Tom Phillips are on commentary.

Natalya vs Summer Rae

Nat takes her down then tries a backslide for 2. Nat rolls her and spanks her butt. Nat then ties her legs up. Sum side headlocks her then Nat side headlock takeovers her. Sum snapmares her, stomps on her back then basement dropkicks her.

Sum spinning high kicks her for 2. Sum foot chokes her then hits a hard spinning high kick for 2. Sum indian deathlocks her. Nat then ties up both of her legs and Sum ropebreaks. Sum misses a splash on the leg then Nat hits lariats.

Nat snap suplexes her then hits a sitout slam. Nat spinning lariats her for 2. Nat bends over and is kicked. Sum then throws her down backwards. Sum butt drops Nat's leg. Sum tries it again and Nat pushes her over the top. Nat takes her down then sharpshooters her. Sum then immediately taps.

Thoughts: I guess I was alright with this but I would have liked more to lead up to the submission. Nat really won this one out of nowhere and quickly. Sum hit a nasty spinning high kick to the face here that busted Nat's nose open.

Ryback vs Dolph Ziggler

Ry shoves DZ off the lock up. DZ slides around to avoid him and slides out. DZ then high fives Alex Riley outside. Ry boots DZ in the gut and clubs him. Ry suplexes him then boots him while he's down.

DZ tries to duck a lariat but ends up tripping and falling out. We go to break and return. DZ fights out of a front facelock then he is catapulted into the top buckle. Ry splashes him for 2.

Ry foot chokes him. Ry chinlocks him then drives him into the corner. Ry chops him down in the corner. Ry hits shots in the corner then gets a 2 count on him. Ry delay suplexes him. Ry misses a corner spear and DZ hits a fameasser for 2.

Ry blocks a zigzag then hits a big lariat. Ry hits his shellshock and wins.

Thoughts: It was kind of a big match for Superstars and it wasn't bad. Dolph did a bunch of bumping for Ry and didn't get a ton of offense in. Ry overpowered him and looked pretty dominant.

Overall thoughts: There were only 2 new matches as usual here. Both were fine but neither was great or must see. The new content only lasts about 15 minutes or so though and it wasn't a bad way to spend the time.
