RAW Preview: Superstar to possibly win first title in 5 years, WWE spoils winner of #1 contender's match?(May 25th, 2020)

#1. Drew McIntyre appears on the MVP lounge ahead of Backlash

Drew McIntyre has a new rivalry

While it isn't the match we expected at Backlash, it's certainly going to be a tough match-up for the WWE Champion Drew McIntyre. His second PPV challenger is another superstar who lost at WrestleMania 36 - Bobby Lashley.

MVP has seemingly decided to take Bobby Lashley under his wing, telling him that he needs to start "being Bobby Lashley again". There's a lot of truth to what he said, especially given that Lashley has lost a lot of his edge over the past 7 months.

However, he's been regaining his momentum, getting a few victories under his belt recently. MVP was out with Bobby Lashley in the main event of RAW last week to observe McIntyre in his match against SmackDown's King Corbin.

McIntyre won as expected, with Lashley staring the Champion down to close the show. It was clear what was next for the WWE Champion and WWE later confirmed that Drew McIntyre will be defending his title against Bobby Lashley at Backlash 2020.

Drew McIntyre will be appearing on MVP's show "The VIP lounge", with a confrontation involving Bobby Lashley imminent. Expect an altercation between the two former allies-turned rivals as things heat up in the build to Backlash!
