The Big Show, dragging a referee to the ring, interrupted McIntyre. The giant congratulated McIntyre and told him there’s a target on his back. The Big Show said it’s a big man’s world and McIntyre is no giant. The Big Show said he’s not challenging for the title but he still wanted to face McIntyre then and there. McIntyre said he’s not afraid of The Big Show. “There’s noting you can say that will convince me to fight you tonight,” said McIntyre. The Big Show slapped the microphone out of McIntyre’s hand and a WWE Championship match broke out. The Big Show dropped McIntyre with a shoulder block. Some clubbing blows gave The Big Show the upper hand.
