There’s not much fight left when your opponent comes in with a sword to attack you, that’s exactly what happened on this week’s Monday Night Raw when Drew McIntyre chased down Jinder Mahal and company with a sword in his hand.
The first fight on Raw this week was a 2 on 1 Handicap match between Drew McIntyre taking on a team of Veer and Shanky with Jinder Mahal standing at ringside.
Before the match takes place, McIntyre is interviewed backstage where he lets Jinder and his associates know “You can pick the hospital, the graveyard, or Angela here!”

Veer and Shanky double teams and attack Drew, launching him shoulder-first into the turnbuckles and ring post. Shanky being the legal man inside the ring lashes out some shots at McIntyre.
During the closing moments of the match, Drew was waiting in the corner to deliver the Claymore Kick to Veer who was slow to get back to his feet.
Then suddenly Shanky grabs McIntyre’s feet to distract him, Jinder then hits the ring with a steel chair and attacks which results in Drew winning the match via disqualification.
