#2: Drew McIntyre retained his WWE Title against Randy Orton through an underwhelming finish

Drew McIntyre and Randy Orton's feud on WWE RAW has been one of the biggest attractions for the company recently, where several legends suffered being on the receiving end of Orton's punt kicks.

But the feud itself transitioned to the next level during Ric Flair's recent appearance on WWE RAW two weeks ago.

Orton and McIntyre's SummerSlam match was supposed to capture the same intensity as the storyline did. But what fans got was a pretty underwhelming finish to a promising match.

McIntyre simply retained his WWE title by applying a backslide maneuver on Orton, which was nothing but a safe way to conclude the bout without compromising the momentum of either competitor.

Maybe this story isn't over yet, which would warrant a rematch between the two at WWE Payback or at any other future date.

Either way, it would be unsatisfactory if fans don't get to witness a proper showdown between the two with a more direct outcome for the sake of this heated feud.
