- Although it's believed that Shelton Benjamin will be CM Punk's next challenger to the ECW Championship, SmackDown's own Mark Henry is being advertised for a number of upcoming ECW/SD live events in the ECW main event against CM Punk for the Championship.

Punk will defend his ECW Championship against Henry at the 1/7 ECW and SmackDown event in Elmira, NY at First Arena. Also scheduled for that show is Batista vs. The Great Khali for the World Heavyweight Championship in the SmackDown main event.
