San Antonio, Tex.
Report by Chris Reed, PWTorch.com reader

Here is all the information on the WWE Raw show from San Antonio, including the ECW taping for Tuesday night.

Dark Match: Mike Knox def. "Hacksaw" Charlie Haas. Pretty boring match, with Haas doing an impression of Hacksaw Jim Duggan, complete with balding wig. Finish came when Haas attempted the running tackle and ran straight into a pump kick from Knox.

ECW Taping Results

Teddy Long is shown backstage wearing a ridiculous green suit for St. Patrick's Day. He meets Finlay and Hornswoggle backstage. Finlay says the Irish do two things well on St. Patrick's Day: party and fight. And Hornswoggle has been the party person today. Long looks down and notices Horny is gone. Finlay states the obvious: we could be in trouble.

(1) U.S. champion Shelton Benjamin & Mark Henry (w/Tony Atlas) def. Christian & MVP. Pretty much a repeat of the six-man tag on Raw. MVP played the face in peril for the entire match, getting a hot tag to Christian in the end. As Christian cleaned up, Atlas distracted him long enough for Benjamin to set up and connect with Paydirt on Christian to score the pinfall.

Finlay looks backstage for Horny but runs into D.J. Gabriel and Alicia Fox dancing on their headphones. They haven't seen him. ... A video package highlights Evan Bourne.

(2) Evan Bourne def. Jamie Noble. I'm not even going to try and describe the quickness of this match. Suffice it to say, Bourne wins with his Shooting Star Press.

Hornswoggle is found in Katie Lee Burchill's dressing room, and he spills food all over her. Finlay finally catches him and leaves with Horny.

Jack Swagger cut a brief promo reminding us that he is still our ECW Champion, even though he's not in action this week again.

Teddy Long is talking with Tiffany about plans for next week's ECW to be an all-Divas special. After Long agrees to this, Paul Burchill and Katie Lee barge in, demanding payback for earlier tonight. Long grants a match next between Finlay and Burchill.

Coming up later tonight -- a live episode of The Dirt Sheet!

(3) Finlay (w/Hornswoggle) def. Paul Burchill (w/Katie Lea Burchill)

Standard hard-hitting match that these two have had many times before. Finlay wins it clean with the Celtic Cross.

The Dirt Sheet is live next, as Miz and Morrison (with the Bella twins) come out and basically have a long promo making fun of Primo and Carlito. The Colons come out and get into an argument with JoMizzy. Carlito goes to spit his apple, but accidentally spits it in the face of one of the Bella twins. All heck breaks loose, and in the end, one Bella twin leaves with JoMizzy, and one with the Colons. I couldn't tell who left with whom.
