30-year-old WWE Superstar sends a message ahead of MITB qualifier against Drew McIntyre and Sheamus

As the highly anticipated WWE Money in the Bank event inches closer qualifier matches have ensured that almost all the spots in the Men's Ladder Match have been filled. However, one spot remains, and ahead of a Triple Threat match on RAW, a 30-year-old superstar sent a message.

Ilja Dragunov got drafted to Monday Night RAW in April 2024 and has lived up to his NXT reputation. The former NXT Champion has been at loggerheads with Bron Breakker since moving to the main roster. However, The Mad Dragon will look to put the defeat against Breakker behind him and look to qualify for the Money in the Bank ladder match when he goes up against Drew McIntyre and Sheamus.

Taking to Twitter/X, 30-year-old Dragunov sent a message to his fans. The star promised to hit his opponents hard on RAW.

“Hit them hard.”

Drew McIntyre took out CM Punk on WWE SmackDown in Chicago

The June 21, 2024 episode of SmackDown saw CM Punk make a cross-branded appearance for his fans in Chicago. The Best in The World was gloating over ruining Drew McIntyre’s World Heavyweight Championship match at Clash at the Castle in front of his home crowd.

However, while things started on a high for Punk, they didn’t end well for him.

Drew McIntyre, who had previously said that he "quit" WWE on the RAW after Clash at the Castle, made a surprise appearance on SmackDown and ambushed CM Punk. He left the Second City Saint bloodied, sending a loud message that his rivalry with Punk is far from over.

From the looks of it, McIntyre and Punk are on a collision course that will culminate at WWE SummerSlam. It remains to be seen whether The Scottish Warrior will have a Money in the Bank briefcase in his hands en route to the showdown against Punk.
