5 things RAW got right on the episode after the Royal Rumble (January 27, 2020)

#3 Drew McIntyre’s build

Drew McIntyre bowled through The O.C.

The winner of the 2020 Royal Rumble match took a lot of punishment and the finishers of several Superstars to emerge victoriously. However, that did not stop him from opening Monday Night RAW and asking for a match upfront.

The man who was no less than a villainous heel not long ago got chants of “You Deserve It” from the crowds. He made it clear that half the guys in the locker room are afraid of Brock Lesnar but he is not. He then said that he believes he can defeat Lesnar at WrestleMania for the WWE Championship.

The O.C.’s Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows answered McIntyre’s call for a fight, and he accepted their challenge in the form of a handicap match.

He dropped Gallows with a headbutt and continued to punish Anderson, taking him to a Suplex City of his own. He finished off the Best Tag Team in the World with a Claymore Kick.

Lesnar then appeared to F5 the man who will challenge him for the title, showing the fans that maybe The Beast is afraid of McIntyre and had to resort to an attack.

This was an incredible way to build McIntyre who deserves the rise he is getting now and we should see Lesnar feel a bit uncomfortable knowing that The Scottish Psychopath could be his match.
