As a result, McIntyre’s non-title match with Randy Orton on tonight’s episode of Monday Night Raw is off. This was the only match announced in advance for this show.
WWE had also been teasing a possible appearance by Goldberg for tonight’s Raw after last week’s episode that closed with not only Goldberg challenging McIntyre for a shot at the WWE Title but shoving down the champion.
Tonight’s WWE Raw will face heavy competition by going up against the NCAA Championship football game on ESPN.
