WWE Bad Blood Results: CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre - Hell in a Cell match

Things started off slow, and the two exchanged strikes before Punk was driven into the corner and then tossed outside the ring and into the chain link wall of the cell. Punk managed to reverse an Irish whip and drove Drew into the cell wall before slamming his head against it.

Punk got a table out and a steel chair but Drew used the chair to hit him instead and sent him into the steel steps before using his boot to drive Punk's head into the steel. McIntyre brought out a toolbox and missed a shot with a wrench before Punk stole the weapon and drove it into Drew's forehead.

Drew ripped a leg off the table but Punk drove him throat first into the edge of the broken table. Punk dropped Drew on the table a few times and tried to impale his eye with the remaining leg on the table but McIntyre managed to escape.

Drew countered the GTS on the floor and hit the Claymore before tossing Punk face-first into the cell wall. Punk was bleeding profusely from the face as Drew drove the steel steps into his head before stomping on it on the steel. Drew used a wrench on Punk's bleeding head before setting up another table at ringside.

Punk came back with a running knee to the head before getting a top rope ax-handle. Drew countered the next move into a big suplex before Punk rolled outside the ring to dodge the claymore.

McIntyre came back with a Claymore in the ring but Punk kicked out of it. McIntyre missed the second claymore before Punk locked in the Sharpshooter but Drew attacked him with the wrench to break the hold.

The referee had to wipe the blood off of Drew's face with a towel as the match went on! Drew superplexed Punk through the table outside before lifting the steel steps and trying to get it in the ring but his back almost gave out. Back in the ring, Punk hit the GTS once more before McIntyre hit the White Noise on the steel steps.

Punk countered a move from Drew into the anaconda vice before smashing his face with a wrench. McIntyre was pleading with Punk to stop but then hit a Low Blow when Punk hesitated. Drew got a bag of beads like the one from Punk's bracelet and dumped it on Punk's head before missing the Claymore and running into the steel steps.

Punk wrapped a steel chain around his knee before feeding Drew a handful of the plastic beads and getting the GTS with the steel chain around his knee for the win!

Gunther took some more shots at the WWE Legend before Goldberg climbed over the barricades. Security came out to stop Goldberg before Sami Zayn came out of nowhere and attacked Gunther. Security came in and separated them before Gunther ran away backstage. Triple H and Goldberg celebrated in the ring before Bad Blood moved on.
