He came. He saw. He conquered CM Punk.
Even though still feeling the lingering effects of being attacked by Kane, The Undertaker summoned from within to get the job done against the leader of The Straight Edge Society. After downing Punk with a chokeslam, it looked like it was over, but Punk managed to kick out of an attempted pinfall. Next, The Deadman went for a Tombstone, but Punk countered with the GTS. Finally, using his lethal Hells Gate submission hold, The Phenom forced Punk to tap out.
After the match, Kanes maniacal laughter echoed throughout the arena while flames shot skyward from the ring posts. His presence was felt, but never seen. The question lingers: Will Kane accept The Undertakers challenge to make their Night of Champions bout a No Holds Barred Match? (Preview)
