It was announced during RAW that Edge had been traded to the SmackDown! brand. Though it was not disclosed who would be heading to RAW in exchange for the “Rated-R Superstar,” new information released indicates it being CM Punk.
A new match line-up has been issued for Friday’s Raw live event at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. Edge has been replaced on the card by Punk, who will be facing R-Truth.
