Tenant damage and ordinary wear and tear

[Kar Sun]

My tenant signed a contact that clearly states that when he moves out the property must be in the same or better condition as at the time he moved in normal wear and tear excepted. 

He mounted a TV and when the mount was removed he repatched, however he expects me to paint it. The whole wall will have to be painted professionally because I cannot just paint a patch and it is fairly large area. It is not a run down low end property.

He additionally scratched a new stove ceramic top with cast iron and my home warranty did not want to pay for it because they considered that a "vandalism".

He seems to think the is ordinary wear and tear and even threatens to take me to court. I do not think he will be able to win anything. I am in Tennessee. 

I told him it will be more expensive for him to take me to court and that he will lose. 

He was my tenant for 4 years.

Thoughts?
