By Richard Trionfo on 2020-07-27 22:59:00

We are at the WWE Performance Center and your announcers are Tom Phillips, Samoa Joe, and Byron Saxton.

Randy Orton makes his way to the ring and we see what happened last week when Orton faced Big Show.

Randy says for 20 years he has been in the WWE and he has been called several names.  The Apex Predator, the Viper, the Legend Killer.  He was the youngest WWE Champion in history and he won the title 12 more times.  He has been part of many iconic teams.  Legacy, the Authority, and Evolution.  Randy says when he thinks about the greats, he thinks about Steve Austin and the Rock, but they cannot hold a candle to his longevity and his accolades.  He can do whatever he wants to whoever he wants to and that will not change.. 

Something's missing.  Randy says he hasn't been able to put his finger on it.  He woke up this morning and it hit him like a ton of bricks.  Randy says he wants to become WWE Champion . . . again.  Randy says that means he has to bring Drew McIntyre into the conversation.  Randy says if they were going to compare resumes, it would be a short conversation.  Ten years ago, Drew was the Chosen One, but his head was so far up his ass and he got himself fired.  Drew fought and clawed to get back into the ring.  He showed hunger, ambition, and hustle.

Drew has his respect because he beat Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania and he did it in quick fashion.  Drew, I am talking to you now.  You got a problem and that problem is that you have what I want.  Randy says he has a tendency to take things in the biggest and grandest manners.  Randy tells Drew he wants a title match at SummerSlam.  When I RKO you and take your title, you will never see it coming.

Randy heads to the back and Nia Jax makes her way to the ring.

Nia says she heard what Randy had to say and she knows how he feels.  NIa says she woke up today and wants the Raw Women's Title.  She got screwed by a referee when she had a title match and then Charlotte jumped ahead of her.  Where is Charlotte now?  Nia says she knows that Sasha has a match tonight against Asuka . . . 

Shayna Baszler makes her way to the ring.

Shayna tells Nia that no one gives a damn what she wants.
