John Morrison def. Evan "Air" Bourne via the Moonlight Drive.
*Highlights* Back and forth match. Fast paced. Went about the first quarter of the hour. I was hoping they weren't going to give us a double count out. They've changed Evan's music so it sounds like they're giving him clearance to take off. Annoying! Yet I guess it goes with the "Air" gimmick.

*Commentary notes*
A couple that I caught.

Yeah, the menstruating nose comment had me rolling.
Now THIS is the kind of show I like from ECW. I was expecting 10 minutes at most for the Bourne/Morrison match, and they give them 20. Great, stiff match, with both guys coming out looking great unlike last nights Mysterio/Bourne match which was too short. There are so many possible good matches to come on ECW that I can't wait to see. Swagger/Chrisian II, Swagger/Bourne, Christian/Bourne, Morrison/Christian, Morisson/Swagger, Kidd/Bourne, Kidd/Christian. Add in the likes of Finlay, Henry, Dreamer and you have a pretty good little roster. Hopefully they get a few good additions without too many subtractions in the Supplemental Draft. Speaking of which they did a good job promoting that in the backstage segment with Tiffany, Swagger, and the Burchills. I don't remember them doing that last year.
Kozlov squash was what it was. As long as once they get him in matches with the regular roster he isn't squashing guys, I'll be fine.
The triple threat was pretty good and got plenty of time. I liked how they worked in plenty of spots with all three guys without as much two guys wrestle while one lays outside as triple threats usually have. Good way to promote Superstars by having the Finlay/Christian match on there. I'll definitely be watching that instead of TNA.

Well, someone correct if I'm wrong, thing is they're still not in direct competition with each other on Thursday Nights.
WWE Superstars on WGN America 8pm EST. Runtime 1hr.
Fantastic little match between Bourne and Morrison. By the way, is it Morrison or Miz that turned face due to that split on Raw? Or are they both still heels? Miz was definitely heeling it up on Draft night, but for this show Morrison was still booked as a heel.
I still have no idea if Ten Sports are going to cover Superstars. But if they are, both of those matches sound delicious. Great thing about India is that WWE programming is either early evening or late night (around 10 pm), while TNA is primetime. So, no competition.

There was a positive crowd reaction for Miz when he gave the backbreaker to Morrison after the announcement on Monday. Heck, he even posed and did a HOO-RAH afterward and the crowd cheered, so...who knows? I guess we'll find out soon enough.
