Drew would go on to retain his WWE Title against the Big Show after a hard-fought victory. Many fans were puzzled at him suddenly having to defend his title.
According to a report by PW Insider, WWE intended on making him look very strong with his match against Big Show by having him overcoming two monsters on the same night.
