Triple H has announced the man Drew McIntyre will face at Clash at the Castle in Scotland.
At WrestleMania 40, Drew McIntyre defeated Seth Rollins to become the World Heavyweight Champion. After the victory, the Scottish Warrior celebrated in the ring and then turned his attention to CM Punk, who was providing commentary for the match. McIntyre spent some time getting in the face of Punk and finally the Second City Saint had enough, and knocked the star over before attacking him with his armbrace.
McIntyre’s night then went from bad to worse as Damian Priest took advantage of the situation, cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase on the defenceless star. In the aftermath of the cash-in, Priest has made it clear he is happy to give McIntyre a rematch once the Scotsman’s arm has healed up. Now, we know when and where the bout will happen.

Previously, Drew McIntyre admitted facing Damian Priest at Clash At The Castle and winning the title was his “dream scenario.” Now, the Scottish Psychopath has got his wish, but it remains to be seen if he’ll get the fairytale ending he is hoping for.
