11/20 WWE RAW Results – We begin with a look back at the Tag Title match from last week’s Raw and how The Judgment Day was able to retain. The package ends with a look at Drew McIntyre’s heel turn from last week.
We are live from the Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where Drew McIntyre is already in the middle of the ring, ready to talk.
Drew says he is not Dominik Mysterio and he has earned the right to talk and you will listen. He says people are feeling a certain way after last week. Some people are upset about last week. Drew says the person who is most upset about the reaction last week is him. People are calling him a coward and want to know why. He says if you paid attention to the show, you know what has happened. If you support him, he doesn’t have to explain himself, but if you turned your back on him, he does not care.
Drew says he gave Jey what he wasn’t given by the Bloodline. He looked Jey in the face before dropping him on his arse. Are you expecting an apology for what he did last week? Jey, you never gave anyone an apology for what you did for your family. Drew says there was some collateral damage for Cody, but he brought Jey to Raw. Cody attacked Jimmy and Solo on Smackdown and people are telling him to get over it. Jey and his family cost him his biggest moment of his life at Clash at the Castle. Drew says he has been away from them for 16 years and he missed so many moments. Having his family watch him beat Roman, but you took it from his family.
Drew says this should be the focus, but everyone is focused on whether he has joined THE Judgment Day. Drew says you have watched him since he was 22 so you should know him by now. He asks the crowd if they think he has joined THE Judgment Day.
Drew says you don’t know him very well. He has not joined THE Judgment Day. Drew says he will be on their team for War Games. Why? Rhea Ripley gave him something no one else could. Jey Uso in a cage. He says he does not know . . .
Jey’s music plays and Drew tells Jey his ass belongs to him.
Jey makes his way to the ring.
Jey says Drew needs to let it go. You did cost him the tag titles last week so no more talking. Why not take this beat down. . . yeet down. Jey asks the crowd for support.
THE Judgment Day shows up behind Drew on the apron as Jey gets on the apron. Drew says they will stay on the apron as he invites Jey into the ring.
Seth Rollins, Sami Zayn, and Cody Rhodes, all with their music playing make their way to the ring.
Adam Pearce stops them and he says this is not happening because War Games is on Saturday. Until the advantage match happens tonight, no one is fighting. Whoever throws the first punch costs their team the advantage on Saturday.
Adam says he has two pieces of business to deal with. Now that Drew is on the War Games team, the other guys need to pick a fifth member and they need to do it by the end of tonight. Adam says by 9:00, he needs to know who will be in the advantage match. He says it will be one-on-one. No outside interference or shenanigans. He tells them to pick or he picks for them.

Will you climb again and go back to the top or will you be another cog in the machine with zero charisma. If you don’t respect me now, I will beat it into you and I will become a nine time Intercontinental Champion.
Gunther says people think he is going to face a twenty year veteran, but he will be facing little Mike Mizanin a boy who was bullied for idolizing the people he mentioned. After high school, you pursued a career as a WWE Superstar and you met your heroes. You were bullied and told that you didn’t belong in this sport.
Now we are twenty years later and things have not changed. You do not belong in this sport. You do not belong in his ring. You belong behind the guardrail like all of the other weirdos who are just like you.
