WWE made it clear this was direction with Raw’s closing moments last night (May 18), and now after a Twitter exchange between WWE champion who loves to fight Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley, they’ve made it official.
Did I stutter?

Amazing how presenting top guys like badasses instead of punchlines has me excited for a match I would have rolled my eyes at six months ago.
This WWE title fight joins Edge vs. Randy Orton as the only confirmed bouts on the Backlash card.
Let us know if you’re excited for “this Lashley” against “this Drew” on Sun., June 14.
