Drew McIntyre vs Sami Zayn is set for the Undisputed WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble.
At Saturday Night’s Main Event, Randy Orton, Damian Priest, Trick Williams, and Sami Zayn wrestled in a fatal-4-way match to become the number one contender to McIntyre’s WWE Title. The winner of this match was set to receive a title shot at the upcoming Royal Rumble premium live event.

Nice try, Drew… 👀
