Drew Mcintyre vs Ted Dibiase
Drew intensely pounds on the mat and steps before he enters the ring. Fans chant “Dibiase”, which may be the first time that chant has been uttered since, maybe 1982, when his dad was a babyface (or perhaps Ted Sr.’s HOF induction). McIntyre works the arm with a bar, so Dibiase reverses it and gets flung down. Dibiase takes him over with a headlock. Scott Stanford, who rules, makes an interesting observation, which I had not noticed, that both guys achieved tag team gold with Cody Rhodes. Dibiase maintains the headlock until Drew gets up and forces him into the corner; Drew gives a clean break, but Dibiase doesn’t, with a knee and reapplies the headlock. McIntyre tries to fire him off but Dibiase counters into a cradle for a one count. A hiptoss and dropkick net a two count for Dibiase, as does a backslide and schoolboy. McIntyre gets aggravated and slaps the taste out of Dibiase’s mouth, enraging him to fire back with punches, and then clotheslines Drew to the floor. Dibiase follows him out with a TOPÉ! Haven’t seen him do that; he continues to pounds on Drew on the floor but gets a little too overaggressive and gets kicked in the leg; Drew innovates a nice wheelbarrow faceplant on the apron. Back from commercial break, McIntyre is stamping on Dibiase and a sit-out splash; he then applies a seated abdominal stretch. Dibiase tries to mount a comeback but gets kicked out of the sky attempting a float-over in the corner; Drew gets a two count off of it. McIntyre momentarily applies a weird crossbow lock on the canvas; Dibiase comes back with a crucifix, for two, but McIntyre quickly maintains control with a kneelift. He drags Dibiase to the apron and slaps a few forearms across the chest and slowly reenters the ring to a decent reaction of “boos”. McIntyre slaps Dibiase around, which fires Ted up and he… runs into a BIG BOOT (in all caps because it was Test-like in intensity). Drew tries to come off the second rope but Ted dropkicks him in midair and they’re both down. They get up together and Dibiase has the upper hand with an inverted atomic drop, a running knee and the Dibiase Lariat. The fans chant “Ted” again but he makes the same mistake Drew did, leaping off the second rope blindly, and gets caught with a Scottish Hammer, for a nearfall. Dibiase slips out of a slam but Drew ducks a clothesline and plants him with a sit-out wheelbarrow facebuster, for two. McIntyre tries a short clothesline, which is death when facing Dibiase, who immediately ducks and plants him with Dream Street
Winner: Ted Dibiase

Drew Mcintyre vs Alex Riley
They lock up and Drew forces Riley into the corner and gives a clean break; second lockup, McIntyre controls with a side headlock and Riley hammerlocks to escape and shoves him. Drew angrily charges into an arm drag; McIntyre forces him into the corner again and knees him a few times. Riley ten punches in the corner and then flips off into an inverted DDT. McIntyre heads to the floor and slams Riley’s bad leg off the apron and takes over. Back from break, Drew is working over the leg and drops elbows onto it; he applies a leg crank. Riley kicks him off but Drew maintains the advantage; McIntyre drapes the bad leg on his shoulder, drops to his knees, whiplashing Riley’s leg. Drew heads to the floor and applies the RINGPOST FIGURE-FOUR. Back in the ring, McIntyre continues the leg psychology, stamping on it while trash talking, and then he works the spinning toe-hold. Somewhere, Terry Funk is smiling. Riley eventually kicks him off into the corner causing Drew to post his shoulder. Riley mounts the one-legged comeback and hits some clotheslines; leaping one into the corner and the spinebuster follows, for two… a random K-Mart commercial cut in… back to the match, Drew clips Riley with a big boot for a nearfall. McIntyre props him on the top and they battle there with McIntyre missing a crossbody and winding up lying across the ropes. Riley hoists him up into the A-Bomb for three.
Winner: Alex Riley

Highlight below to see what the chosen one will be up to on this weeks edition of Superstars!

Match: ALex Riley b. Drew Mcintyre.

HE IS a star attraction at some of the world’s biggest sporting events and one of the best known TV entertainers in America.

Performing in packed arenas to millions of fans around the globe – many of whom will be wearing his T-shirts and playing with his action figures – Drew McIntyre admits he finds it hard to believe that just 10 years ago he was making his wrestling debut as a scrawny teenager in Ayrshire.

The Scot is one of the top stars in the glitzy world of WWE wrestling.

After starting out as a 15-year-old and slogging his way to the top via a series of dingy gigs all over the UK, he has celebrated his 10th anniversary as a wrestler in fine style with a big homecoming show in Glasgow.

Drew, 26, from Prestwick, made his WWE debut four years ago and was hailed as the future of the sport by wrestling chief executive Vince McMahon.

He has won one of their biggest titles, the Intercontinental Belt, and has his sights set on the world championship and a place in the hall of fame. But he said his greatest achievement is being able to come back and do his thing for a Scottish crowd.

He says it is the only place in the world that matches the excitement of the big US arenas.

Drew said: “I never get nervous before a show but I get nervous when we come to Scotland.

“It’s just awesome and a real dream come true for me to have made it in the WWE and then come back to Scotland to see the fans.

“It’s unbelievable, my favourite show of the year. The only other thing that is like it is Wrestlemania, the fans are amazing.

“It blows my mind to be here, meeting my friends and family who supported me all those years ago, and to be here for a WWE show where this is my job.

“It’s only when I come home to Scotland and see where it all started that I can sit down and take it all in.

“All I ever remember as a young boy was people telling me it was an American thing and just an unrealistic fantasy.

“It’s a fantasy to want to play for Rangers or Celtic, which was about 30 minutes from me, but when I said I wanted to join WWE, they said it was like wanting to fly to the moon without a spaceship.

“At a lot of the early shows, there were a hundred-or-so people there.

“But it’s all a bit different now.”
