The Miz & Jack Swagger def. United States Champion Kofi Kingston & Primo (PHOTOS | WATCH)
For weeks, The Miz and Jack Swagger have both vowed to take down United States Champion Kofi Kingston, but so far neither man has been able to do it. On “WWE Superstars,” two of Raw’s biggest loudmouths got another opportunity to scrap with Kingston along with former Unified Tag Team Champion Primo. With the backing of the “All-American American,” Miz was able to pin The Jamaican Superstar, picking up the win for his team. This victory didn’t put championship gold around the self-proclaimed “chick magnet’s” waist, but it may very well have brought The Miz one step closer to the United States Title Match he believes he deserves.

Dolph Ziggler def. Slam Master J (PHOTOS | WATCH)
Clad in leather and leopard print, the braggadocios Dolph Ziggler brought his cocky attitude — and his impressive skills — to “WWE Superstars” on Thursday night. While the Hollywood, Fla., native has had his sights set on the Intercontinental Championship for months, he stayed focused on his opponent, Slam Master J, in the ring tonight. Controlling the action with his aggressive offense, Ziggler kept Cryme Tyme’s crony down and grabbed himself another victory. In his “Palace of Wisdom,” Intercontinental Champion John Morrison was definitely taking notes on this contest.

Nikki Bella (w/ Brie Bella) def. Katie Lea Burchill (PHOTOS | WATCH)
Thanks to her twin sister Brie, Nikki Bella managed to defeat Katie Lea Burchill without even pinning her. In the closing moments of her match with ECW’s “Scarlet Witch,” the beautiful Bella realized she needed some assistance and rolled to the outside of the ring. Her identical twin, Brie, then took over for her, scaling the top rope and diving onto Katie Lea for the pin. The official never saw the switch and Katie Lea never knew what hit her.

Sheamus def. Yoshi Tatsu  (PHOTOS | WATCH)
Since coming to ECW as a part of Teddy Long’s New Talent Initiative, the massive Irishman known as Sheamus has proven himself to be one of the most impressive young Superstars in WWE. The Dublin destroyer further added to his growing reputation by disposing of another formidable young talent, Yoshi Tatsu, on “WWE Superstars.” While the Japanese Superstar used his exciting offense to try and fell the giant, the pale titan was simply too much for Tatsu to handle. In the end, the Irish Curse sealed Tatsu’s fate and earned Sheamus another big win.

Kane def. Jimmy Wang Yang (PHOTOS | WATCH)
Less than three days before he faces The Great Khali in a Singapore Cane Match at WWE Breaking Point, the diabolical Kane stepped into the ring with Jimmy Wang Yang and showed the WWE Universe just how intent he is on causing destruction. After decimating the Asian redneck and pinning him in the center of the ring, The Big Red Monster grabbed a Singapore cane and began to ruthlessly batter his opponent. By the time Kane stopped his assault, Yang’s back was a grizzly map of purple welts and bruises and the SmackDown Superstar was barely conscious. Will The Great Khali suffer the same brutality on Sunday?

Vladimir Kozlov & Ezekiel Jackson (w/ William Regal) def. ECW Champion Christian & Tommy Dreamer

ROCKFORD, Ill. — Less than five days before he defends his title against William Regal at WWE Breaking Point, ECW Champion Christian teamed with Tommy Dreamer in a losing effort against Regal’s massive minions, Vladimir Kozlov & Ezekiel Jackson, in the main event of ECW on Syfy. How will this brutal loss affect Captain Charisma going into his big title defense on Sunday?

Earlier in the evening, ECW Champion Christian & Tommy Dreamer spoke with the newest member of the ECW broadcast team, Savannah, and let her know that they were going to destroy Vladimir Kozlov & Ezekiel Jackson in tonight’s main event. (WATCH)

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned for Captain Charisma and the ECW Original. While both Superstars attacked their massive opponents with vigor, they were never truly able to gain an upper hand. In the end, Regal tripped up Dreamer, allowing Jackson to execute his modified uranage slam for the win. Of course, Regal and his ruthless roundtable didn’t stop there. The British Brawler applied a vicious Regal Stretch to the fallen Dreamer and then brutally kicked a defenseless Christian. The last thing the WWE Universe saw as the show faded to black was the bruised and battered ECW Champion sprawled on the arena floor.

Zack Ryder def. local competitor (PHOTOS)
If you’ve never seen Zack Ryder in action, you might assume the brash and cocky Superstar was more interested in working on his tan than winning matches. Yet, time and time again the Long Island native has proven that he’s all business once the bell rings. Local competitor Rory Fargo was the latest to learn this lesson when he stepped in the ring with the arrogant Superstar. Zack Ryder destroyed his outmatched opponent so quickly and decisively he barely mussed his spiky hair.

Shelton Benjamin & Sheamus def. Goldust & Yoshi Tatsu (PHOTOS | WATCH)
The unique pairings of some ECW’s most talented Superstars made for fast-and-furious tag action on Tuesday night. While the bizarre Goldust and the explosive Yoshi Tatsu worked well together, the duo was bested when Shelton Benjamin tagged himself in and pinned Goldust. Feeling that his partner stole the pin from him, Sheamus confronted Benjamin, resulting in a massive brawl between the two Superstars. It took nearly every official in the WWE locker room to pull these two bulls apart. What can we expect from Sheamus and Shelton on the next edition of ECW on Syfy?

The Hurricane def. Paul Burchill (w/ Katie Lea Burchill) (PHOTOS | WATCH)
For weeks, the ruthless Paul Burchill has been infatuated with proving that Gregory Helms and The Hurricane are the same man. The Ripper’s obsession with the emerald knight’s identity may have taken his focus away from tonight’s match as he was unable to stop the superhero’s innovative offense. In the closing moments of the bout, Burchill’s sadistic sister, Katie Lea, attempted to help her brother, but her interference backfired. The Hurricane was able to nail his Eye of the Hurricane maneuver to pick up a victory and keep his identity safe for another night.

Matt Hardy vs. World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk (No Contest, Non-Title)

CLEVELAND – While the WWE Universe is still coming to terms with the departure of Jeff Hardy, it witnessed the crowning of a new Intercontinental Champion in John Morrison, as well as the reemergence of one of WWE’s most ominous forces – The Undertaker!

Hardy "Punked"? (PHOTOS | VIDEO)
Covered in Jeff Hardy-style face paint, World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk teased the WWE Universe by entering the arena to Jeff Hardy’s entrance music. Punk went on to disparage The Charismatic Enigma, flaunt his own “straightedge” lifestyle and dare his WWE Breaking Point opponent, Undertaker, to face him in the ring.

But instead of The Phenom, it was Matt Hardy who charged into the ring to brawl with The Straightedge Superstar. The emotion-charged fight ended only when WWE officials separated the two Superstars. Later, when CM Punk confronted SmackDown General Manger Theodore Long, Teddy agreed for both Superstars to meet in a non-title match later in the night.

VIDEO: A look at Jeff Hardy’s last match in WWE

Matt Hardy vs. World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk (No Contest, Non-Title) (PHOTOS | VIDEO)
In Matt Hardy’s first one-on-one match on SmackDown since having abdominal surgery, he was looking to represent the Hardy name and take down the reigning champion in the night’s main event. In a battle of wills, it was anyone’s match to win. However, before a victor could be decided, Undertaker emerged to confront his WWE Breaking Point opponent. In a swift and powerful assault, The Phenom chokeslammed Punk through the announce table, leaving him a lifeless heap on the arena floor. Is it a sign of things to come at WWE Breaking Point? (Preview)

John Morrison def. Rey Mysterio (New Intercontinental Champion) (PHOTOS | VIDEO)
In the biggest match of his career, John Morrison finally did what Dolph Ziggler has been unable to do – dethrone Rey Mysterio to win the Intercontinental Championship. Despite a valiant fight from Mysterio to hold onto what was his, it was Starship Pain from The Friday Night Delight which ushered in the new champion. Now, Morrison will defend his new title against Dolph Ziggler at WWE Breaking Point. (Preview)

Finlay & The Great Khali def. Kane & Mike Knox (PHOTOS | VIDEO)
Even with The Great Khali at Finlay's side, Kane and Mike Knox formed an imposing challenge for The Fighting Irishman and his massive partner. In the end, it was the smallest Superstar of the four – Finlay – who earned the victory for his team, when he smashed big Mike Knox in the head with his trusty shillelagh to get the pinfall. At WWE Breaking Point, The Great Khali and Kane will square off one-on-one in a Singapore Cane Match. (Preview)

Drew McIntyre assaults R-Truth (PHOTOS | VIDEO)
After being “overlooked” last week, Drew McIntyre said he wanted to make a statement. Unfortunately for R-Truth, McIntyre used him to deliver his painful message. After Truth entered performing his signature “What’s Up!?" song, McIntyre brutally assaulted him, leveling him with a Double-Arm DDT. What's next from this young Superstar?

Maria & Eve def. Layla & Natalya (PHOTOS | VIDEO)
With a well-executed Handspring Splash, Eve dropped Layla to get the victory for her team. The win was a measure of retribution for the previous night, when Natalya pinned Eve in a Six-Person Mixed Tag Team Match on “WWE Superstars” (Results).

Taz talks about why TNA is better than WWE

The following is an excerpt from an article from Scripps News:

Senerchia is now pursuing a new challenge as a color commentator for TNA Wrestling, the Nashville, Tenn.-based company that is trying to make inroads into WWE's industry-wide dominance.

"I couldn't be happier," Senerchia said in a recent telephone interview. "TNA reminds me of the original ECW, but with a real TV contract, real money and a lot of big names.

"We're not at the level of WWE yet. We're still young. There will be some growing pains. But the work ethic and passion are there to give our audience the best product possible."

Working for TNA requires less travel while providing Senerchia a greater chance to expand his wrestling horizons beyond announcing.

"I do a little bit of everything," said Senerchia, who made his TNA debut in July as Samoa Joe's "adviser." "Backstage, I'm assigned to (watch) talent that they want me to help nurture. I've also given feedback on the TV shows from a different perspective, having not only wrestled for WWE but worked in the studio."

Senerchia admits that a "little part" of his decision to leave WWE stemmed from the demands company owner Vince McMahon places on his announcing crew. Senerchia called the action on "Smackdown" (8 p.m. EDT Fridays, MyNetwork TV) and then ECW (10 p.m. Tuesdays, Syfy Network) after WWE relaunched that brand in 2006.

While offering heavy praise for McMahon and other top WWE officials, Senerchia said he performs "much better in a looser, relaxed atmosphere." McMahon's heavy-handed approach also prompted Mick Foley to leave WWE for TNA last year.

"At times, it's a little obnoxious to have so many people in your ear," Senerchia said. "You have to listen to your (announcing) partner, the executive producer and the company owner while trying to follow the talent in the ring and tell a story. I only have two ears, not six."
