Drew McIntyre was ambushed and hit with repeated chair shots by Roman Reigns just a little over a week before their bout at Clash at the Castle. Many believe that the Scottish Warrior will be the one to dethrone Reigns, although there are doubts about that as well.

Either way, the timing would be perfect as Reigns is days away from celebrating two years as the Undisputed Universal Champion. As the rivalry develops, only time will tell what happens next.

Who do you think will be the one to defeat Reigns? Sound off in the comments below.
