Taz’ No-Compete Clause Expires, Big NOC **SPOILER**

It was announced at last night’s WWE Smackdown tapings that Jeff Hardy will again challenge CM Punk for the World Title at the Night of Champions PPV.

Taz’s no-compete clause with WWE ends today.

Taz has a new Q&A up on his Facebook page, where he discusses announcing on ECW and Smackdown, great suplexes, Tough Enough and more. Here are some highlights: 5–Ezra Kazee (Winona) OK Taz, have to take you back to one of my favorite reality shows, Tough Enough. Having been a trainer for season one of the show, do you have any special memories from the show and from the contestants? **My first thoughts on TE 1 were that these frigging kids were lucky as shit to get a chance to slide into the WWE without breaking a finger nail and there is a gigantic list of guys like me who busted their ass and neck (literally in my case) to get into the WWE!! So that pissed me off that they had it so easy and WWE knew that I was bitter and exploited that which makes for good TV! Al Snow was good cop and I was bad cop…wasn’t an act at all. What didn’t air was all the butting of heads that Al and I did which also wasn’t an act. It drove me nuts that Al could be so lax with these kids because he (Al Snow) came up the hard way and earned his stripes and was patience with them and I was a maniac! But I’ve always respected Al and still do. Also, from TE 1 I have me some friends that I consider life long friends like WWE Producer John “Big” Gaburick and ECW Announcer Josh Matthews.
