When it comes to answering a call-out from Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar, few have done it better than Drew McIntyre did Monday night.

McIntyre didn’t pose, didn’t smile, didn’t talk. He just walked to the ring, climbed inside, and stared down Brock. Then, when Lesnar went to leave and charged Drew, McIntyre kicked his head off with a Claymore.

Worse for Brock, he stumbled around like a drunkard on a boat, only to regain his footing on the ramp… and suddenly eat another Claymore. But his night wasn’t over, as Drew obliged the fans chanting, “One more time!” and nailed a third Claymore.

Fans were in a frenzy, probably wishing WrestleMania was this Sunday, and not five weeks away. Let’s just hope they didn’t peak too soon with this feud. Though, we should figure Heyman has some tricks up his sleeve to help the Beast get revenge.
