Earlier today, WWE announced the first match for Raw next week. In a power-packed tag-team match, WWE Champion Drew McIntyre will face his nemesis, Randy Orton.

The match will be champions vs top contenders match as it will feature WWE Champion McIntyre and Raw tag-team champions Street Profits against Randy Orton, Dolph Ziggler, and Robert Roode.

WWE promoted the match as, “the Viper is clearly not through with McIntyre and has backup in Ziggler & Roode, with whom there is no love lost with the WWE Champion. Will that be enough to put down the championship trio, or will McIntyre, Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford bring the smoke?”

Drew McIntyre is ready for whatever Randy Orton will put through

Last week on Raw, Randy Orton was back after receiving a vicious beatdown from Drew McIntyre at Clash of Champions. He sent a message to the champ by attacking the four legends who helped the Champion during the Ambulance Match.

After Raw, an infuriated McIntyre issued a warning to Orton for “tainting” his moment. McIntyre said Randy is “going to find out the hard way why he was known as the Scottish Psychopath.”

Robert Roode, on the other hand, made his WWE return after several months of absence. He got a title match against Drew as he returned, thanks to an open challenge. However, he succumbed to McIntyre’s Claymore Kick and lost the opportunity.

Despite the loss, the “Glorious One” cut a backstage promo after the match. Roode and his tag-team partner, Dolph Ziggler, said they were tired to see McIntyre getting everything. They believe they don’t need to prove themselves after years in the industry. In the end, they vowed to return next week “with a different result.”

Street Profits defeated Andrade and Angel Garza and retained their tag-team titles at the previous PPV. Despite being newbies on the main roster, the duo is slowly becoming popular among the WWE Universe. Maybe, to add more to that popularity, the duo got a place the main event alongside such huge names.
