Abstract: Recently interest in using generalized reductions to construct massive supergravity theories has been revived in the context of M-theory and superstring theory. These compactifications produce mass parameters by introducing a linear dependence on internal coordinates in various axionic fields. Here we point out that by extending the form of this simple ansatz, it is always possible to introduce the various mass parameters simultaneously. This suggests that the various ``distinct massive supergravities in the literature should all be a part of a single massive theory.
