The ending to tonight's edition of Monday Night RAW left a bad taste in the fans' mouth. Randy Orton took things too far when he attacked WWE Hall of Famer Beth Phoenix and left her lying in the ring.

Orton had brutalized her husband and fellow Hall of Famer Edge a few weeks ago. It's almost a lock that we'll be getting Orton vs Edge at WrestleMania 36 on April 5, and it would be interesting to see what Edge does to his former friend when he gets his hands on him.
After RAW went off the air, the 2020 Royal Rumble winner Drew McIntyrecame out and blasted Orton for what he did to Phoenix. McIntyre then proceeded to challenge Orton to a fight, but the latter was nowhere in sight.

Instead, Erick Rowan came out and McIntyre put him down in a matter of seconds with a Claymore Kick. McIntyre pinned Rowan for an easy win and cut a heartfelt promo to send the fans home happy.
He thanked the fans in attendance, and promised them that he will put down The Beast at WrestleMania 36. Check out a few tweets below, that highlight the events that took place after RAW.
McIntyre won the 2020 Royal Rumble match by eliminating Roman Reigns in the end. He will take on Brock Lesnar at The Show of Shows on April 5. McIntyre has waited for this moment for the past 13 years, and has finally bagged an opportunity to shine at The Grandest Stage Of Them All.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
