In the end, Big E cashed in his Money In The Bank briefcase on Bobby Lashley and defeated him for the WWE Championship, thus ushering in the new era of Monday Night RAW.
Drew McIntyre decided to challenge Big E for the WWE Championship at the end of a recent episode of Monday Night RAW and explained why he did so.
While speaking to DAZN, Drew McIntyre talked about Big E winning the WWE Championship and explained why he feels ‘really bad’ for Big E at the same time as well.
“I was just like everybody else on planet earth, ecstatic. There’s nobody that deserves to be WWE Champion more than Big E. I’ve watched him come through FCW to NXT to start on the (main) roster as a very serious character which is not the real him to teaming with the New Day guys, initially as a serious group and finally shown their personality, getting over a huge and paying his dues while being such a nice guy the whole time and finally winning the big one. I was over the moon for him. The whole world is over the moon for him. I just feel really bad that he’s champion because I have to take it off of him because I want it back.”
Drew McIntyre will be challenging Big E for the WWE Championship at WWE Crown Jewel on October 21st in Saudi Arabia. It remains to be seen whether he will win the match and become the new champion or not.
