Video: WWE Superstars from May 24, 2012, featuring Zack Ryder vs Heath Slater

Stay connected for news and updates

Here's the latest episode of World Wrestling Entertainment's (WWE) weekly Thursday show, Superstars, from May 24, 2012, featuring a main event of Zack Ryder going over on Heath Slater in a decent match for an Internet only show.

Really, Ryder should want to be on Superstars, as he's a big fish in a little pond when it comes to the smaller WWE shows. Once he gets on Monday Night Raw or Friday Night Smackdown, he quickly becomes nothing more than a jobber with no real creative direction.

At least here he's a star ... so to speak.

The same could be said, although to a much lesser extent, for R-Truth and Kofi Kingston, the WWE tag team champions who have struggled to find footing on the main shows. But again, they're style is perfectly suited for a show like Superstars that is heavy on in-ring action and light on angles. They were solid in going over clean on JTG and Michael McGillicutty here.

And if you want a glimpse at the future of the business, take a look at Antonio Cesaro doing his thing in the opening bout against Tyson Kidd. Cesaro is, to put it simply, a pleasure to watch and with his combination of charisma and in-ring abilities, he should be working with the big dogs sooner rather than later.

Hopefully.

Enjoy the show, Cagesiders!
