However, he understands his friend's position and will now face Orton on his behalf. Here's what the WWE RAW Superstar had to say,

"I am going to answer because it is ridiculous. Do you see my size? Here's the reality. Tonight, you saw a snippet of what I am capable of. And it was spoilt by my own friend but I also understand his side of things. He is going through a lot with Mr. Orton. He has seen a lot of people get damaged, that he has grown up fans of, being kicked in the head. He is upset, I understand. But, I watched my friend get loaded into an ambulance, and driven out."

"And you came to me yourself and said, 'How do you feel about it?' I said I would have loved to have to come to Drew McIntyre to talk about the interference. However, the reality is I expect him to be okay. With that said, they key here is the actual word Payback and Randy deserves it."
