Batista squashes C.M. Punk in the dark match main event held after Raw

Batista squashed C.M. Punk in a non-title dark match main event held after Raw on Monday in Raleigh, N.C. A Dot Net reader who was at the show reports that Batista finished off Punk with a Batista Bomb in roughly one minute. "I think the C.M. Punk experiment has officially ended," said our correspondent.

Powell's POV: The Dot Net correspondent noted that Kane received a bigger babyface pop than Punk did before their match during the live show, and the fans cheered more for Batista during the dark match main event. Of course, this was only a dark match and I'm not going to read as much into the outcome of the dark match as our correspondent did.
