I actually caught some of Superstars last night, and actually enjoyed what I was watching.

What I was wondering though is who the guy was doing the play by play? He called the matches like I imagine Jim Nantz calling a wrestling match only he didn't rip on Phil Simms golf game. I don't know if it is a style that would hold up on the big shows every week, but it was a refreshing change from what we have been getting.

I assume you mean on the Raw brand- that was Scott Stanford, while Jack Korpela worked with Matt Striker for the Smackdown matches. Stanford and Korpela both host the PPV pre-game shows.

I appreciate hearing a play-by-play guy who isn't a beaming manchild. I understand the smaller announcers make the wrestlers look bigger and more masculine but ...

It was the Ryder/Smith match that I watched so it must have been Scott Stanford. I like the fact that he doesn't feel the need to constantly jabber letting us actually focus on the match. It's probably a habit which the company will break, but I'll enjoy it for now.

I have to say the lil Trent Barreta/Curt Hawkins feud they did couple of weeks ago was actually very good, and the best of the show, they actually let them have time to tell the story in the match. Superstars is very fun to watch every week

Scott Stanford is probably the best play-by-play guy in wrestling right now. I'd love to see how he'd do calling a big match. His work with Punk was particular good for the last couple of weeks, unfortunately Lawler is back with him now. But even Lawler is better with Stanford than he is with Cole because there's not so much stupid BS to play off of.

Stanford also does those promo shill pieces here in Canada where they try to sell everyone on those Mattel toys or the latest WWE movie. I've never caught his play by play, though.

Provided his rehab goes well, Matt should be able to be a surprise entry in the Royal Rumble to eliminate MVP a la Foley and Orton in 2004. I'd love to see a Wrestlemania match between the two of them.
