Last night at Royal Rumble, Drew McIntyre became the man who not only eliminated Brock Lesnar but also went on to win the whole thing.
On tonight’s episode of RAW, McIntyre opened the show and instantly cut a promo about winning the Rumble and ended up making a major announcement. McIntyre announced that he chooses WWE Champion Brock Lesnar as his opponent for WrestleMania 36.

McIntyre went on to say that unlike the other Superstars in the locker room, he’s not afraid of Lesnar and that he’ll beat the Beast and win the WWE Championship at the Show of Shows.
Drew went on to throw an open challenge to anyone in the locker room to come and face him then and there and Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows answered his challenge. McIntyre beat the two men in a handicap match, hitting both of them with claymores and ending the matters quick.
However, after the match was over, McIntyre was ambushed by his opponent at WrestleMania, the Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar.
