We derive WKB expressions for glueball masses of various finite temperature supergravity models. The results are very close to recent numerical computations. We argue that the spectra has some universality that depends only on the dimension of the AdS space and the singularity structure of the horizon. This explains the stability of the $0^{++}$ glueball mass ratios between various models. We also consider the recently proposed nonsupersymmetric model arising from the type 0 string. In the supergravity limit of this model, the heavy quark potential has an effective coupling with 1/(log u) behavior in the UV. Unfortunately, the supergravity solution implies that the heavy quark potential is still coulombic in the infrared, with an effective coupling of order 1. We also argue that the type 0 supergravity background solution does not have normalizable glueball solutions.
