Fresh off his victory over Randy Orton last night at WWE SummerSlam, WWE Champion Drew McIntyre kicked off this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw. The segment ended with Orton attacking Drew on the stage and in the Gorilla Position. Orton punted McIntyre as officials pleaded with Orton to back away.
In the opening minute of the show, it was announced that there will be a Triple Threat Match at Sunday’s Payback pay-per-view between Universal Champion The Fiend, Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman.
