Drew McIntyre Challenges Brock Lesnar For WWE Championship At WrestleMania 36
Drew McIntyre wasted no time in calling out his opponent for WrestleMania 36, extending his challenge to WWE Champion Brock Lesnar.
As the winner of the 2020 Men’s Royal Rumble, McIntyre got his choice to challenge the WWE Champion Lesnar, the Universal Champion ‘The Fiend’ Bray Wyatt, or, presumably, the NXT Champion Adam Cole. McIntyre, who eliminated Lesnar in the Men’s Royal Rumble, officially challenged Lesnar for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 36.
