Detailed Results
The opening match of the night belonged to RAW the bizarre pairing of Goldust & Hornswoggle defeated The Brian Kendrick and his latest potential co-champion, Jamie Noble. Will The Brian Kendrick ever find "the" perfect partner to challenge Primo & Carlito for the Unified WWE Tag Team Titles?
ECW was represented on Superstars as the "ECW Original" Tommy Dreamer squared off with one-third of The Hart Dynasty, David Hart Smith. ECW Champion Christian was a guest commentator for the match. In the middle of the match, Natalya tried to hand David Hart Smith a steel chair to use on Tommy Dreamer, but Christian intervened and took the chair away from "The Anvilette". Unfortunately for Tommy Dreamer, the ECW Champion inadvertently distracted the referee, which gave Tyson Kidd the opportunity to deliver a vicious boot to the skull of Tommy Dreamer. David Hart Smith then pinned the "ECW Original" to pick up the big win. With his momentum gained on ECW now gone, can Tommy Dreamer get it back and win the ECW Title this Sunday at Extreme Rules or have we seen the last of Tommy Dreamer?
Then it was time for SmackDown’s offering to Superstars as "The Charismatic Enigma" Jeff Hardy teamed with fellow North Carolinian R-Truth to take on the narcissistic team of Chris Jericho & Dolph Ziggler. Before the match could get underway, Chris Jericho had some words about his Extreme Rules opponent, Intercontinental Champion Rey Mysterio. Jericho proclaimed that WWE Superstars is "his show" since he is the "ultimate superstar". Jericho then refers to Rey as the "ultimate hypocrite" and then guaranteed to take both the mask of Rey Mysterio and his Intercontinental Title in the No Holds Barred match at Extreme Rules.
In the SmackDown main event, the team of Jeff Hardy & R-Truth defeated the team of Chris Jericho & Dolph Ziggler after Jeff Hardy hit the Swanton Bomb and got the pin over Dolph Ziggler. Will Jeff Hardy’s momentum continue tomorrow night on SmackDown when he is a guest on a "special ladder edition" of The Cutting Edge? Sparks are guaranteed to fly when Edge & Jeff Hardy are in the same ring just forty-eight hours before they battle over the World Heavyweight Title in a Ladder Match at Extreme Rules. Edge will have "double duty" on SmackDown as, in addition to hosting his #1 Contender in The Cutting Edge, the World Heavyweight Champion will take on the Intercontinental Champion Rey Mysterio in a Champion Vs. Champion match. Will a match of this magnitude weaken Edge for Extreme Rules or will it offer momentum for the World Heavyweight Champion?
