The heated rivalry between Drew McIntyre and CM Punk almost culminated in a SummerSlam match last week when McIntyre returned to RAW following his suspension. However, his ego got the best of him, and he refused to apologize to the WWE officials he attacked at Money in the Bank, leading to GM Adam Pearce extending his suspension.
On the July 22nd edition of Monday Night RAW, CM Punk made his return for the first time since costing Drew McIntyre a chance to become World Champion at the WWE Money in the Bank PLE. Punk made a blockbuster announcement, revealing that he saw his surgeon on Saturday and got medically cleared.
Immediately after, he called out McIntyre for a fight. The Scottish Warrior stormed down in anger but declined Punk’s offer. Undeterred, Punk charged toward him, only to be stopped by WWE officials.
Adding fuel to the fire, McIntyre mocked Punk by flaunting a bracelet he had taken weeks before. This led to GM Adam Pearce coming out and making the match between the two heated rivals official for WWE SummerSlam. The bigger shocker followed, as Pearce revealed Seth “Freakin'” Rollins as the Special Guest Referee for their bout. Rollins came out, leaving both McIntyre and Punk stunned.
The Visionary mocked both of his rivals, confirming Pearce’s decision. The segment closed with Rollins celebrating while Punk and McIntyre faced off intensely.
