Ahead of his title showdown against Roman Reigns at ‘Clash at the Castle’ in Cardiff, Wales, Drew McIntyre sent out a dire warning to his opponent by laying waste to ‘The Bloodline’ on Friday night SmackDown.

Reigns was celebrating completing two years as champion in the go-home show in Detroit, Michigan ahead of Clash of the Castle — which will mark WWE’s first stadium pay-per-view event in the United Kingdom in three decades. Reigns drove towards the ring, where Sami Zayn and The Usos waited patiently for their leader.

However, McIntyre attacked Reigns with the Claymore Kick soon as he exited the vehicle, before shifting his attention to Zayn, Jimmy and Jey Uso in the ring. The ‘Scottish Warrior’ concluded the show with a promo in which he promised to win the belt from the ‘Tribal Chief’ on Saturday.

Among the matches that took place on Friday night, the Viking Raiders defeated The New Day in a Viking Rules match — in which falls counted anywhere.

Additionally, Ronda Rousey was reinstated to the roster after her punishment was reduced to probation. WWE official Adam Pearce however, wasn’t pleased by the development and hurled insults at the ‘Baddest Woman on the Planet’. Things sure didn’t end well for Pearce later that evening as he ended up getting attacked by Rousey.
