#2 Vince Russo blasts Drew McIntyre's match against Sheamus on RAW

While Sheamus vs Drew McIntyre on RAW got rave reviews from most people, former WWE writer Vince Russo was not a fan. Russo stated on SportsKeeda's Legion of RAW that the two men should have gone all out instead of throwing 'rabbit punches' on each other.

He believed that the match could have been much more real if they added more of a strong-style approach to the match instead of throwing fake punches.

''They can make contact without hurting each other. They can hit each other and not hurt each other. They were throwing these rabbit punches during that pull apart before we went to commercial; I'm like, guys, what are you doing? No!''

Vince Russo clarified that he is a big fan of the former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre and that he likes everything about McIntyre.


#1 Drew McIntyre will regain the WWE Championship at WrestleMania

Drew McIntyre lost the WWE Championship at Elimination Chamber when The Miz cashed in his MITB contract. However, Lashley is now the Superstar who holds the top prize on RAW. It is almost a lock that the Scottish Warrior will take on Bobby Lashley at WrestleMania 37.

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has stated that Drew McIntyre is likely to regain the WWE Championship at WrestleMania as WWE want to give him a crowning moment in front of a live crowd.

There’s the obvious thing of having McIntyre get his title win at Mania before 20,000 to 30,000 fans and get that Mania pop for a title win that he couldn’t get last year.

Though many believe that Lashley should have a long reign as the WWE Champion, it looks like his first reign will not last past WrestleMania.
