Kane def. CM Punk
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - After losing the Money in the Bank Ladder Match at the 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania and a singles match on Raw to CM Punk, Kane was craving retribution. And retribution is exactly what The Big Red Monster got when he decimated Punk in the center of the ring at Backlash. (PHOTOS)
His previous victories over Kane had clearly lit a fire under The Straightedge Superstar and from the opening bell he attacked The Big Red Monster with the intensity of an uncaged animal, unleashing a barrage of thunderous shots that could be heard throughout the Dunkin Donuts Center. But while Punk used his fortitude and heart to battle The Big Red Monster, he simply couldn't overcome Kane's size and strength advantage. In the end, a massive chokeslam sealed Mr. Money in the Bank's fate — and the win for The Big Red Machine.
To his credit, CM Punk came to Providence with a strategy. The Straightedge Superstar targeted his opponent's right arm, throwing dangerous kicks at Kane in an attempt to take away the 7-footer's most effective move — the chokeslam. Yet, Punk used his educated feet one too many times. After suffering through a barrage of kicks, The Big Red Monster finally grabbed Mr. Money in the Bank with both hands and chokeslammed him to the canvas on his way to victory.
Clearly, Kane had gotten the vengeance he was seeking at Backlash. And as the referee counted three, The Big Red Monster smiled, satisfied with the carnage he had left in his wake.
