WWE Raw video highlights: Drew McIntyre vs. Big Show title match

Drew McIntyre’s first title defense as WWE Champion aired on the Raw after WrestleMania.

In storyline, the title defense actually took place shortly after the second night of WrestleMania 36 went off the air. WWE hyped throughout Raw that they would be showing video of what happened in the aftermath of McIntyre’s win. It featured McIntyre returning to the ring for an interview about defeating Brock Lesnar. He was then confronted by Big Show.

Big Show tried to goad McIntyre into a match, but McIntyre — who had just faced Lesnar — said there was nothing Big Show could say to convince McIntyre to fight him that night. Big Show then slapped him instead, leading to the match starting.

Big Show hit a chokeslam on McIntyre near the end of the match, but McIntyre kicked out. McIntyre then dodged a knockout punch and hit the Claymore to retain his title.
