For the past three weeks on Raw, an Intercontinental Title Tournament has raged. Now, where there were once eight Superstars, all hungry for an opportunity to compete for championship gold, only two remain: Rey Mysterio and World Tag Team Champion CM Punk. For the first time ever, at Armageddon, these two former World Champions will meet in the ring, with the winner going on to face William Regal for his Intercontinental Title.
Both Superstars have traveled a rough road to get to this point. Punk faced two Superstars with diametrically opposite styles, contending with the monstrous power of Snitsky, before going on to defeat the agile speed of John Morrison. Mysterio’s path was no easier however, as before he even entered the ring for his first match, he was attacked by the vicious Mike Knox. Fighting through an injured wrist, the Ultimate Underdog lived up to his name by defeating The Miz, and going on to beat World Tag Team Champion Kofi Kingston.
The legendary high-flying Rey Mysterio has more experience than his younger competitor, but as of Monday night, he was still nursing his injury. And what the Straightedge Superstar may lack in experience, he more than makes up for in heart, as he has demonstrated numerous times in the past year by winning the Money in the Bank Ladder Match and becoming World Heavyweight Champion. Punk will also be fighting for his tag team partner, Kofi Kingston, who was eliminated from the tournament by Mysterio.
Though these formidable Superstars have fought on the same team together in the past, when they meet for the first time at Armageddon, there will be an opportunity to compete for championship gold at stake, meaning that all bets are off.
