The Rated-R Superstar looked impressive against Kane at Survivor Series and nearly won the World Heavyweight Championship. His mind games with The Big Red Monster continued throughout the week.

World Heavyweight Champion Kane demands that Edge return Paul Bearer
At Survivor Series, the World Heavyweight Championship Match ended in a draw, thanks to an extremely controversial finish. Though Kane returned to SmackDown with the title still in his grasp, he continued to agonize over the whereabouts of his father Paul Bearer, abducted two weeks ago by Edge. At The Ultimate Opportunist’s prodding, an uncharacteristically subdued “Devil’s Favorite Demon” asked The Master Manipulator “nicely” to return “The Father of Destruction” to him. But, Edge did not find his request sincere enough to oblige him.

Kane’s obsessive search to reclaim his father continued throughout SmackDown. Every time Kane thought he had caught up with The Ultimate Opportunist, all he found was an empty wheelchair. When The Rated-R Superstar appeared in the crowd with Paul Bearer, threatening to hurl him down the arena stairs in his wheelchair, Kane tried to appease him by offering another opportunity at the World Title. Edge accepted, but still held on to Paul Bearer.

However, that was not Edge’s biggest hit of the night. After luring Kane out to the parking lot, The Master Manipulator drove over a fake “Paul Bearer” dummy in full view of the horrified World Heavyweight Champion. As Edge drove on, the petrified Paul Bearer could be seen, still captive in the back seat.

The bell rings, and Kane tries to clothesline Edge, but eats a slap to the face instead. Edge comes back with a couple more rights to the face, rolls to the outside where he sweeps Kane off of his feet. Edge goes to the top and jumps off, almost getting caught with a chokeslam, but Edge fights out of it and hits a heel kick to put Kane on his back.

Edge sends Kane back into the ring, ducks a big boot and takes Kane back down to the mat, where he begins stomping at his knee and pounding his head.

Edge rolls to the outside and drags Kane by the leg to the corner of the ring, where he wraps his leg around the ring post. Edge rolls back into the ring and goes right back to work on Kane’s knees, stomping away at both of them before dragging him into the center of the ring and locking in a leg lock. Kane is able to fight out of it with a couple of quick leg drops. Both men get up to their feet and Edge tries for the Impaler DDT, but he’s instead placed across the top rope and kicked out to the floor. Kane follows out and he picks Edge up to his feet, catching him with a big right hand. Edge rolls back into the ring, but Kane drags his head out to the apron and lays into him with a series of rights.

Kane chokes Edge against the bottom rope before picking him up and whipping him hard across the ring again. Kane chokes Edge with his boot while asking where his father is.

Edge finds himself backdropped out to the apron, but he comes back, slamming Kane head first into the turnbuckle, and hitting a big cross body from the top rope. Edge lays into Kane with a few right hands, but when he tries to whip Kane across the ring it’s reversed and he eats a big slam instead. Kane climbs to the top rope and leaps off with a dive, but he’s caught with a big dropkick from Edge instead.

Kane tries for a suplex, but Edge reverses out of it into a fall away neckbreaker that’s good for another near fall. Both men are back up and Edge runs right into a big side slam from Kane that’s good for a near fall for the champion. Kane goes back up to the top, but Edge is able to stop him, sitting him down on the top rope instead. Edge scales the ropes, but Kane pushes him off, crotching him on the top rope.

Edge sets up for the spear, but Kane is able to meet him with a big boot instead, stopping Edge dead.

World Heavyweight Champion Kane vs. Edge
At Survivor Series, World Heavyweight Champion Kane will face Edge for the World Title. Could The Ultimate Opportunist reclaim the “holy grail” from the darkest reaches of hell at WWE’s second longest-running pay-per-view?

Edge captured his championship opportunity in a whirlwind Triple Threat No. 1 Contender’s Match against Alberto Del Rio and Rey Mysterio on SmackDown.

Kane has indeed proven himself to be the “Devil’s Favorite Demon.” After punishing The Undertaker in both No Holds Barred and Hell in a Cell Matches, the horrific Superstar triumphed over his legendary brother for the last time, burying him alive at WWE Bragging Rights. By vanquishing The Demon of Death Valley, Kane stands unchecked to utilize the full “power” of the underworld. And with Paul Bearer by his side, The Big Red Monster seems virtually unstoppable. However, even against the evil Kane, The Master Manipulator may be able.

On the same night that The Big Red Monster was bringing about the demise of The Deadman, The Rated-R Superstar was working to win the 7-on-7 Tag Team Elimination Match for Team SmackDown. Moreover, not only is the nine-time World Champion no stranger to the illustrious title that Kane possesses, but he has also stared into the face of the very forces of darkness the frightening champion now lays sole claim to.

Two of Edge’s World Titles were captured when he pinned The Undertaker’s shoulders to the mat – cashing in his Money in the Bank championship opportunity in 2007 and winning a brutal Tables, Ladders and Chairs Match at One Night Stand in 2008. Could the same fate await The Phenom’s Big Red successor?

Find out at Survivor Series, Sunday, Nov. 21 at 8/7 CT, only on pay-per-view.
