It all began on the top of a ladder. In the closing seconds of the Money in the Bank Ladder Match at the 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania, CM Punk and Kane slugged it out 20 feet above the canvas all in a desperate bid to grab the briefcase and win a World Title opportunity that could be cashed in any time over the next year. Despite a massive size and strength advantage over The Straightedge Superstar, Punk persevered with a series of jaw-breaking kicks to knock The Big Red Monster from the ladder and claim his second straight Money in the Bank victory.Of course, The Big Red Machine hadn’t been so willing to accept this defeat. On last Monday’s Raw, he challenged CM Punk to a match, attempting to avenge his loss to The Straightedge Superstar. Instead, The Big Red Monster was once again upset when Mr. Money in the Bank countered a devastating chokeslam with a rollup and scored the pinfall victory. Although he flashed a sadistic smile after Punk outmaneuvered him, it was clear that Kane was not happy about what had just transpired.
The 7-foot behemoth would successfully vent his frustrations days later on “WWE Superstars,” briefly sating his thirst for vengeance when he manhandled Punk in a tag match, pinning him for the win. Of course, where Kane's warped mind is concerned, there’s no doubt that he intends to inflict much more pain and suffering on Punk at Backlash.
This Sunday, The Big Red Machine gets that opportunity to break Mr. Money in the Bank. Can CM Punk do the unthinkable and conquer Kane for a third time? Or will The Big Red Monster live up to his name and drag The Straightedge Superstar through hellfire and brimstone on his way to victory?
