During last night’s edition of WWE Monday Night RAW, advertisements ran noting that WWE Champion CM Punk will be defending his title against Kane on this Friday’s edition of WWE SmackDown, which tapes tonight at the Baton Rouge River Center Arena in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
WWE’s official sypnosis for the match reads, “For the first time in eight years, the WWE Championship will be contested on SmackDown. CM Punk will go up against the very man he whacked repeatedly with a steel chair – Kane – on SmackDown this Friday night. What fury will The Big Red Monster have in store for Punk as a response?”
