Brother Devon injured his right ankle doing a Doomsday Device on Rhino during his tag match at Victory Road. It appears as if he'll be out for some time. I'm sure they looked at it backstage and he'll need to undergo and MRI.
Former WWE Star Signs TNA Contract Posted by Bobby Spade on 07/13/2008 at 12:40 PM
Jeremy Borash appeared on "The Pain Clinic" radio show over the weekend (available at FeelThePain.net) to talk about TNA. During his appearance, he notes that TNA has signed Daivari to a contract, so we're going to be seeing more of him after the World X Cup concludes tonight at Victory Road. When Daivari originally parted ways with WWE last October, one of his goals was to join TNA.
Shelton Benjamin def. United States Champion Matt Hardy (Non-title) Mr. Kennedy def. Domino Finlay & Hornswoggle def. WWE Tag Team Champions The Miz & John Morrison (Non-title) WWE Champion Triple H def. Chavo Guerrero (Non-title) Natalya & Maryse def. Michelle McCool & Cherry Jesse & Festus def. Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder (Count-out) Vladimir Kozlov def. Stevie Richards Edge vs. Big Show (No Contest)
BATON ROUGE, La. Edge & SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero reconciled in front of our fans in New Orleans after the Rated-R Superstar escaped serious injury at the hands of Big Show in a No Disqualification Match.
With Guerrero watching at ringside, Big Show used his size and strength to overpower Edge, and when The Worlds Largest Athlete prepared to deliver a Con-Chair-To to Edge, Guerrero showed her heart still belonged to Edge, stopping the match and protecting the Rated-R Superstar quite the change from the beginning of the night.
The GM had made the match after she had heard enough from her apparently former fiancé, who began the night by telling the world he was happier standing on his own and that Vickie was not good enough for him. The Ultimate Opportunist then said at The Great American Bash, he would prove all his critics wrong and defeat Triple H to win the WWE Championship.
It was then that Vickie Guerrero used her power as General Manager to place Edge into the match, and she had only one thing to say to the Rated-R Superstar, good luck, baby.
Family favor Chavo Guerrero has taken advantage of his relation to Vickie Guerrero on more than one occasion, and on SmackDown, the self-proclaimed Mexican Warrior tried to use that bond once more earning himself a match with WWE Champion Triple H. The Game was in top form in his first match on Friday Night SmackDown since being drafted, delivering a Pedigree to Chavo Guerrero to get the win.
Golden standards In a fast-paced, high-flying, non-title encounter, Shelton Benjamin defeated United States Champion Matt Hardy, putting his name into the mix of Superstars who want the opportunity to wear championship gold. The match saw both men taking chances to gain momentum, and when Hardy attempted his patented Twist of Fate, Benjamin blocked it and then took advantage of an over-aggressive Hardy to seal the victory.
Bulldozed Another one of SmackDowns new additions, Mr. Kennedy defeated Domino using the Mic Check, with his former friend MVP sitting at ringside doing commentary. Before the match, Kennedy had referred to himself as, more valuable than MVP, drawing the ire of the flashy Franchise Playa. After the win, Kennedy and the Ballin Superstar exchanged words with each other, and as Kennedy went to leave, Umaga much to the delight of MVP attacked him.
Devious Diva duo Now knowing that she will face Michelle McCool at Great American Bash for the newly created Divas Championship, Natalya teamed with Maryse on SmackDown, intent to send a strong message to McCool. The All-American Diva had Cherry by her side, but Natalya used a Sharpshooter, made famous by her uncle, WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart, to force Cherry to submit. After the match, Natalya made a statement by laying out McCool on the outside, just feet from the Divas Championship. Will McCool find retribution before the two do battle at The Bash?
Balancing acts In the long-standing rivalry between Finlay & Hornswoggle and the WWE Tag Team Champions The Miz & John Morrison, each team has earned victory at the others expense, giving neither a true advantage. On SmackDown, the back-and-forth battle continued, with the Irishman and his son winning a non-title match when Finlay used the shillelagh and Hornswoggle delivered the Tadpole Splash to Miz.
Bell-ringing retribution Jesse & Festus were looking to right the wrong done to them last week when after their victory, they were attacked by Curt Hawkins, Zack Ryder & Edge. With Festus in his stoic state, the duo was left wide open for the vicious attack. On SmackDown, Jesse & Festus once more earned a victory over Hawkins & Ryder, and when Edges cohorts attacked again, Jesse evened the odds by ringing the bell, transforming the corn-fed colossus, who then cleared the ring of Hawkins & Ryder.
Massive mauling The undefeated Vladimir Kozlov continued his impressive streak on SmackDown, when he defeated Stevie Richards. The Moscow Maulers path of destruction has seen Kozlov annihilate anyone he steps into the ring with, using his wide repertoire of offense to remain unblemished. How long will Kozlov carry on the hot streak? Will anyone step up and face the Moscow Mauler?
iMPACT! RESULTS AND VIDEO FOR THURSDAY, JULY 10: STING WILL BE THERE THIS SUNDAY, TAYLOR NEW WOMEN'S CHAMP AND MORE! By Charles Rice
With Victory Road live on Pay-Per-View this Sunday, the stars of TNA pulled out all the stops this week on iMPACT! in hopes having one last swing of momentum go their ways. It was not only an exciting night in the iMPACT! Zone, but a historic one as well.
The night kicked off with Robert Roode of Beer Money inc. taking on one half of the TNA Tag Team Champions LAXs, Homicide in a street fight. In the end there was interference from both Cowboy James Storm and Hernandez after Homicide had been handcuffed and whipped with a belt. This Sunday, in the Fans Revenge match the gold is on the line. But for LAX it will be all about revenge.
At the end of that match Sting was seen staring on from the rafters and TNA fans were promised he would make his return later on in the evening.
In a very exciting and hard hitting match, it was Kip James, Tomko, and X Division Champion, Pettey Williams taking on B.G. James, Matt Morgan, and Eric Young. This match was too big to be contained in the six sided ring and spilled out not only around the ring but in the crowd as well. In the end it was Tomko, Kip, and Pettey that had their hands raised in victory. That was not enough for Tomko and Pettey though. After the match they were about to attack Eric Young with a lead pipe when Abysss music began to play he came out and began attacking Tomko. It looked as if he was about to use the lead pipe when he began to second guess himself. What is going on in the mind of Abyss? That is the question that has been on everyones mind since he made his return at Slammiversary.
With the World X Cup tournament still going on it was Team International picking up a win over Team Japan and Team TNA picking up the win over Team Mexico. All teams will be vying for the World X Cup this Sunday in Houston.
In a very historic match it was TNA newcomer Taylor who made history. Not only did she finally topple the mighty Awesome Kong to win the open challenge and the $25,000, but she also became the new TNA Knockouts Champion. Only time will tell if she is the real deal or not, because Kong will get a rematch this Sunday in Houston.
Before the main event of the night, Booker T called Joe out to the ring where he apologized in advance for what he was going to do to him in Houston. Joe went on to tell Booker that he was going to be sorry for ever calling him out. He went on to say he was going to make him sorry in front of all his friends in family in Houston. Before the two could finish their battle of words, they were interrupted by The Icon Sting. He told them both he would be at Victory Road to watch their match but refused to say why.
Through out the night Kurt Angle had been becoming more and more frustrated with his tag team partners for the main event of the night, The Beautiful People. This is because both Angelina Love and Velvet Sky were more concerned with looking pretty and tanning than getting ready for their match against AJ Styles, ODB, and Gail Kim. In the end it would cost them because it was Kim who picked up the win pinning Velvet Sky.
However, as the three were having their hands raised in victory, Angle and the Beautiful People attacked and it looked like Kurt was going to get the ankle lock on AJ, only to have it interrupted with a low blow from Karen Angle of all people. In the end Frank Trigg came to Kurts aid and he was able to lock on the ankle lock as iMPACT! went off the air.

BATON ROUGE, La. WWE Hall of Famer Tony Atlas made a special, Extreme appearance on Tuesday night as a guest ring announcer on ECW on Sci Fi during a non-title match between Tommy Dreamer and ECW Champion Mark Henry. While Atlas exchanged words with Henry earlier in the evening, and Dreamer offered Atlas a chance to be in the ECW Originals corner, Atlas proved to be more than a guest ring announcer on Tuesday night.
Dreamer, who was seeking revenge on Henry for beating Colin Delaney, causing the Original to lose a chance at the ECW Title, was crushed by the Worlds Strongest Champion, thanks to help from Atlas. After Delaney attempted to trip Henry, Atlas tossed the youngster into the announce table, distracting Dreamer. The ECW Champ took advantage of the situation, delivering a Worlds Strongest Slam to Dreamer. WWE Hall of Famer Atlas celebrated in the ECW ring with the Extreme Champion. With a Hall of Famer in his corner, who will stop the Worlds Strongest Champ? (WATCH)
Also on Tuesday night, as WWE Tag Team Champions The Miz & John Morrison boasted about their in and out of the ring talents, they were interrupted by Finlay & Hornswoggle. Hornswoggle blasted the WWE Tag Team Champs with a water pistol, and his father attacked them with a shillelagh, much to our Baton Rouge fans delight. Their disruption turned into a match, thanks to ECW General Manager Theodore Long. Finlay continued his winning streak, defeating The Miz, thanks to the help of his sons distraction. Will the father and son duo continue their hot streak or will the WWE Tag Team Champions prevail in this heated rivalry?
Still seething after his loss to Ricky Ortiz last week on ECW, former GM Armando Estrada demanded a rematch against the newcomer. But new GM Long had another thing on his mind ECWs New Superstar Initiative. Long forced the contract-less Estrada to face ECWs newest Superstar, Braden Walker. Once again, Estrada was defeated by another new Extreme Superstar. Will Estrada ever be able to prove himself in the Land of the Extreme? How will successful newcomer Walker affect Tuesday nights? (WATCH)
Finally, Evan Bourne, another ECW Superstar looking to make a name for himself, picked up a win. Bourne faced Nunzio on Tuesday night, and the young high-flyer proved he wasnt bothered by a recent loss to Mike Knox. Bourne, who says he defies the odds by defying gravity, rekindled his confidence after defeating Nunzio with a soaring shooting star. Whats next for this newcomer in the Land of the Extreme?
Former WWE Cruiserweight Champion Gregory Helms has a cryptic clock posted on his Myspace account. The caption of the clock reads "It's almost time!" This could be an indication that Helms is nearing a return to the ring. For those unaware, Helms has been out of action with a neck injury for over a year.

Mickie Knuckles - Moose in TNA - underwent successful knee surgery today, reports PWInsider.com. Despite the operation taking longer than expected due to the muscle mass in her leg, doctors successfully placed a titanium rod in to hold the bones in place while it heals.
Knuckles suffered a broken femur bone in her right leg after jumping off a balcony at a local IWA show and despite it being a risky move, reports say that TNA still wants to sign her once she recovers. Her expected time for recovery and rehabilitation is six months, but she should be able to leave the hospital with the support of crutches within the next few days.
Despite being in quite a bit of pain, Knuckles is said to be in high spirits.
Jason Powell of Prowrestling.net is reporting that TNA has released James Mitchell from the company. Mitchell who is the former manager of Abyss hasn't been on TNA TV since the Against All Odds PPV back in February.
Rey Mysterio def. Santino Marella WWE Womens Champion Mickie James & Kelly Kelly def. Jillian & Layla World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk def. Snitsky Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston def. Charlie Haas Batista def. John Cena, Kane and JBL in a Fatal Four Way
NEW ORLEANS - Raw this Monday opened with a special message from Stephanie McMahon, who expressed a desire for everyone on Raw to work together in the absence of the WWE Chairman. In spite of several unexpected occurrences, such as a lighting accident and a fan who managed to make his way into the backstage area, the show moved forward, with two new matches set for The Great American Bash, including a World Heavyweight Title Match between current champion CM Punk and his challenger, Batista.
Blind Fury The rivalry between Shawn Michaels and Chris Jericho had reached a fever pitch of late after Y2J smashed HBKs head into the JeriTron-6000, severely injuring Michaels eye. The two have continued to have confrontations in recent weeks, with the rivalry culminating on this weeks Raw as the brands second Great American Bash Match was established. The Showstopper accepted Jerichos challenge to face him in two weeks, even though he only has one good eye. Michaels went on to tell Jericho that even though he has had a fantastic career and won every title hes ever gone after, he will never be HBK. (WATCH)
Snitsky gets Punkd At the beginning of Monday nights show, World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk endured a tirade and a slap from SmackDowns Vickie Guerrero for having won the World Title from Edge. The Straightedge Superstar went on to have another altercation in the locker room area, this time with Snitsky. The Straightedge Superstar went on to suggest that the two face in the ring that very night. Punk defeated the yellow-toothed monster in a non-title match, proving exactly why he deserves to hold the World Championship around his waist.
Mysterios Raw Debut Another new member of the Monday night roster, Rey Mysterio, had his very first match as a Raw Superstar. Last week, the Master of the 619 was interrupted by Santino Marella, who went on to insult and degrade Mysterio. When the Ultimate Underdog had enough, he leapt into action, shutting up the Italian Superstar. This week, Mysterio continued to show Marella that he isnt an athlete that you should underestimate as he defeated his opponent handily. (WATCH)
Kofi Tastes the Curb Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston also experienced a win on Monday night by defeating Charlie Haas in a non-title match. Though the Jamaican Superstar tasted victory, he didnt have a chance to enjoy it before Paul Burchill rushed into the ring, performing his vicious Curb Stomp on the Intercontinental Champion.
Chain Gang Carjack Before they faced off in a Fatal Four Way Match, John Cena and JBL had an added altercation, involving the self-made millionaires limo. Cena, with some help from Cryme Tyme, worked over JBLs private automobile with crowbars and baseball bats, before the Longhorn Loudmouth stomped off to prepare for their match. (WATCH)
Raws New Divas Before the incident with JBLs limo, Cena relaxed near the locker room area with WWE Womens Champion Mickie James, as Mickie prepared for a Divas tag match. The two were soon approached by Mickies partner for the night: Kelly Kelly. Mickie explained that the former ECW Diva had just joined the Raw roster, after which the two went to go face Jillian & Layla in the ring. Though Mickie & Kelly are a new team, they showed that they know how to work together, picking up a win over their competitors.
The Animal Unleashed Monday night ended with a long, brutal Fatal Four Way Match between John Cena, Batista, Kane and JBL. In spite of such fierce competition, The Animal won the match by pinning Kane, who went on a bizarre rampage outside the ring, assaulting WWE Production crew and announcers alike. (WATCH) Read more

Funaki United States Champion Matt Hardy def. Mr. Kennedy, Chavo Guerrero and Shelton Benjamin (Fatal 4th of July Four Way Match for the United States Championship)
TULSA, Okla. Distraught over losing the World Heavyweight Championship to CM Punk on Raw (WATCH), Edge snapped on SmackDown, calling off his wedding plans to SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero. The news was too much to bear for the GM, who broke down in a screaming, crying fit. (WATCH)
But the Rated-R Superstars lover wasnt the only one who suffered his wrath. After Jesse & Festus defeated Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder in a tag match, the Ultimate Opportunist launched a brutal attack on Festus, first spearing him to the canvas then knocking him out with a vicious steel chair attack. (WATCH)
Friday night was the culmination of the former champions brooding frustrations over the lack of support from our fans, and Hawkins, Ryder, and the love of his life, Vickie, after losing his title.
Golden opportunity But if its gold that can set Edges mind straight, he might not have to wait long. At the start of SmackDown after WWE Champion Triple H and Montel Vontavious Porter poked fun at Edges loss and pending nuptials on MVPs VIP Lounge Vickie interrupted to announce Triple H would defend the WWE Championship against Edge at Great American Bash. (WATCH) Considering the Ultimate Opportunist called off the wedding, will the GM change her mind about the pay-per-view match-up? Great American Bash preview
Golden dreams It isnt just Edge whos dreaming of gold. SmackDowns Divas have eagerly awaited a chance to compete for the new Divas Championship. With a red-headed Natayla looking on from the announce table, Michelle McCool defeated Cherry, Kelly Kelly, Victoria and Maryse in a Golden Dreams Match. The victory earned the All-American Girl a match with Natalya for the Divas Championship. (WATCH)
Flying onto SmackDown The 2008 WWE Draft brought big changes to SmackDown, including Hall of Famer Jim Ross arrival on the blue brand and long-time announcer Michael Cole saying his final goodbye to fans as he heads to Raw. Making his SmackDown debut, after being drafted from Raw, was Jeff Hardy, who fought WWE Tag Team Champion John Morrison in a valiant back-and-forth battle. After avoiding a Moonlight Drive from the Shaman of Sexy, the Legend Thriller delivered a facebuster-powerbomb, followed up by a Swanton Bomb and the pinfall. (WATCH)
Samoan spike In his second appearance on SmackDown after the WWE Draft, Umaga defeated Funaki in convincing fashion. From start to finish, the 340-plus-pound Samoan Bulldozer dominated his challenger, finishing him off with a Samoan Spike.
Fatal 4th of July Four Way In celebration of Independence Day, the United States Championship was contested in a Fatal 4th of July Four Way. United States Champion Matt Hardy took on Mr. Kennedy, Chavo Guerrero and Shelton Benjamin. All four combatants waged war in a free-for-all for the title. In the end, Hardy delivered a Twist of Fate to Shelton Benjamin who landed on top of Chavo. Capitalizing on the chain of events, Hardy climbed on Chavo to get the pinfall and retain his gold.
On the eve of Americas Independence Day things were not looking so hot for Americas self proclaimed hero, the Olympic gold medalist, Kurt Angle. The night kicked off with AJ Styles coming to the ring with Kurts wife Karen, and calling him out.
Styles challenge was not answered by Kurt though, instead Team 3D, Brother Ray and Brother Devon came to the ring and told AJ that Kurt hadnt made it to the arena yet because he was out on some hot dates. From there Brother Ray went to on to say that Karen was the problem and that she was nothing but a b**** and a w****. AJ had heard enough and attacked both Brother Ray and Brother Devon. In the end though, the numbers game was too much and AJ was once again left lying in the ring. That is until Rhino came out and made the save. From there Rhino challenged Team 3D along with Kurt Angle to a match at Victory Road. It was to be Team 3D and Kurt Angle versus Rhino, AJ Styles, and Christian Cage. Without hesitation Brother Devon accepted the challenge. The match was made with the fans getting to choose to the stipulation.
Up next we were shown footage from Kurts first blind date. He had met the first date at the gym which from the looks of the lady, it was the first time she had ever seen the inside of one. The lady was a beast to put it nicely. Suffice to say Kurt was not pleased.
Back at the iMPACT! Zone, LAX was addressing the fans and Beer Money, Robert Roode and James Storm via a live satellite feed from Houston, Texas where they were on a PR tour for the upcoming Pay-Per-View. Mid sentence Hector was interrupted as out came Storm, Jackie, and Roode for their match with the Motor City Machine Guns. The match didnt go as Beer Money had promised because after a back and forth match they ended up losing. This came at the hands of Jackie getting up on the ring apron to spit beer in Chris Sabins face but missing and instead spraying Storm in the face. In an effort to take out their anger, Beer Money did something that has become common practice for them, they handcuffed their opponents, the Motor City Machine Guns to the ring ropes and began whipping them with belts. Both the refs and security that came down took the brunt of their frustrations as well. Even announcer Don West got a few whips from the belts. Finally, Jim Cornette came down to the ring and put an end to the mayhem. He then said that Beer Money would face the two most disgruntled and upset wrestlers that he could find in the back later on that night.
Up next we see footage from Kurts second date. If you thought the first date was bad, this one was even worse. Lets just say this date had a little something extra and not in a good way .she or should we say he was a man. Kurt was once again not pleased.
Back in the arena Roxxi and Moose were squaring off in the second ever Bimbo Brawl. In a match that saw both ladies take a ton of punishment it was Moose that picked up the win when she split Roxxi open after DDTing her on to a street sign in the middle of the ring.
In the back we see Kevin Nash being asked by Cornette to face Beer Money later that night. Nash agrees to do so and then asks who his opponent will be. Cornette is hesitant but tells him it will be the TNA World Heavyweight Champion Samoa Joe. Nash says he sees this as an opportunity.
Joe didnt take the news as well when he was told Nash would be his partner. In the end Cornette told him he didnt have a choice and thus the main event was set for later in the night.
It was time for Angles last blind date. At first it seemed like this one would turn out ok until it came out that the woman had a spastic colon. Kurt promised he was going to get Brother Ray for setting him up on three terrible blind dates.
In the second round of the World X Cup it was Alex Kozlov accompanied by Davari taking on Ray Bucanero of Team Mexico. Kozlov started off strong and got an early near fall. In the end though, it was Team Mexico that got the victory and two more points when Bucanero hit a senton bomb from the tope rope.
Kurt had finally arrived at the arena and came out to the ring. He immediately called out Brother Ray. Both Brother Ray and Brother Devon come out immediately Brother Ray tries to calm Kurt down. He tells them all about the match that Brother Devon had agreed to for them. He also apologized for the dates and said he had lost his black book and thus he had to use Brother Devons black book and that is where those ladies had come from.
Brother Ray said he would make it up to Kurt and called out a very pretty blond lady to the ring. It was going well until she told Kurt that one of her traits was that she was very loyal. Kurt got angry saying no lady was loyal and they all cheated just like his wife Karen. It looked like Kurt was going to get physical, he then apologized saying he would never strike a woman but he knew someone who would. Out came the beautiful people. They attacked the woman in the ring and put a brown bag over her head.
It was about this time that Karen came out and slapped Kurt in the face and knocked down both Angelina Love and Velvet Sky. They got back to their feet and all start to surround Karen when out comes AJ, ODB, Gail Kim, and Rhino. All eight of them begin going at it all hell has broken loose in the ring.
After a commercial break and everyone in the ring had been broken up Jeremy Borash is in the back with Booker T in his plush locker room. Booker says he thinks its great that Joe is so focused on Nash because that way Joe has not been concentrating on him. He promises that he will win the title from Joe in his home town of Houston at Victory Road.
Another portion of Rough Cut with Matt Morgan airs and he is talking about how he got into wrestling.
In the next round of the World X Cup it is Curry Man of Team TNA taking on Team Japans Milano. In a back and forth match it was Team Japan that picked up the win after a low blow.
In the back Lauren is interviewing Storm and Roode who say they arent afraid of Nash or Joe. James Storm also shows off his new Beer Money home made t-shirts.
In a much anticipated match Taylor is facing Raisha Saeed for a chance to face Awesome King next week for not only the 25,000 dollars but also the Knockouts Title. After a back and forth match that included interference from Kong on more than one occasion, it was Taylor that got the win with a German Suplex. Next week she would have her rematch with Kong.
In the main event of the night, it was Beer Money going against Joe and Nash. It was clear that both Joe and Nash were having trouble co existing each trying to upstage the other. Although, this was coming more from Joe, especially when he blind tagged himself into the match. It was a back and forth match. Nash tried to get the tag in at one point and got a one arm salute from Joe. In the end Joe hit a muscle buster for the win. One thing is for sure this night did not go well at all for Beer Money as they lost both their matches. Momentum is clearly on the side of LAX heading into their title match at Victory Road.
Back in the ring, even after picking up the win Joe and Nash are having words with each other. Suddenly they are interrupted when Sting of all peoples music began playing! Was he back? YES! Sting was up in the rafters looking down as iMPACT! went off the air.

United States Champion Matt Hardy, Finlay & Hornswoggle def. WWE Tag Team Champions The Miz & John Morrison & Chavo Guerrero Atlas Ortiz def. Armando Estrada ECW Champion Mark Henry def. Colin Delaney (non-title)
TULSA, Okla. - After bringing the ECW Championship back home to the Land of the Extreme proving triumphant in an epic Triple Threat Match with Kane and Big Show at Night of Champions ECW Champion Mark Henry celebrated with a crushing victory over the courageous Colin Delaney. (WATCH)
Earlier in the evening, Tommy Dreamer with Delaney in tow interrupted Henry and questioned whether the Worlds Strongest Man actually knew what it meant to hold the coveted extreme title. After challenging Henry, the unimpressed new champion proclaimed that if young Delaney could beat him, he would give Dreamer his opportunity. Unfortunately for the ECW Original, although Delaney possessed the heart and soul of ECW, he could not overcome such enormous odds.
As part of his New Superstar Initiative, ECW General Manager Theodore Long introduced Atlas Ortiz, the latest addition to the ECW roster. The newcomer made a notable first impression, scoring a victory over former ECW GM Armando Estrada in his debut match.
In a fast and furious Six-Man Tag Team Match, United States Champion Matt Hardy teamed with fellow ECW draftees Finlay & Hornswoggle to defeat WWE Tag Team Champions The Miz & John Morrison & their partner Chavo Guerrero. After Hardy delivered the Twist of Fate to Morrison, and Hornswoggle dropped the Tadpole Splash on Guerrero, Finlay finished off the self-proclaimed Mexican Warrior with an authoritative Celtic Cross.
