Here's the recaps and results from the 4/23/09 episode of WWE Superstars...

Finlay & Hornswoggle vs. Tyson Kidd and Natalya

Hornswoggle may have wrestled as his father's tag team partner for the last time. In tonight's encounter the father-son duo took on ECW's Natalya and Tyson Kidd in a tag team match. Hornswoggle used all sorts of antics including juggling to distract and irritate Kidd and Natalya. In the end it was Hornswoggle connecting on a Tadpole Frogsplash off the corner to win it. Finlay then had the crowd help him give Hornswoggle a song to send him off to his new show, Raw.

Winners: Finlay & Hornswoggle win via pinfall over Tyson Kidd & Natalya.

Rey Mysterio & CM Punk vs. Kane & Big Show

In this matchup, CM Punk prepared for Kane at Backlash, while Rey was out to try to gain revenge against Big Show who knocked him out on Raw. In the match, Punk and Rey worked well together as they delivered a doubleteam on Kane to take him down. Rey hit several moves including a hurricanrana outside the ring on Kane. Kane and Big Show also worked for some time to keep Rey from tagging Punk. Punk finally got involved but in the end his future Backlash opponent Kane, was able to score the pinfall.

Winners: Kane & Big Show win by pinfall over CM Punk & Rey Mysterio.

Kofi Kingston vs. Edge

In this matchup, Kofi Kingston tried to use his quickness and high-flying moves to try to defeat the Rated-R Superstar. Edge was mentally preparing himself for this Sunday's match with John Cena. Kingston delivered on several high risks moves including a bodypress on Edge off the ropes as well as a high dropkick to knock him to the mat. Edge regained control of the match and eventually took out his frustrations by hitting a huge Spear on Kingston taking him down to pin him.

Winner: Edge wins by pinfall over Kofi Kingston.
