The saga of Drew McIntyre and CM Punk is far from over and now it seems the two WWE stars are set to see each other in hell.

At Bash In Berlin, CM Punk and Drew McIntyre beat each other senseless in a strap match. Despite being thrown through a table at ringside, Punk was able to finally overcome McIntyre, dropping him with several Go 2 Sleeps before touching the four corners to pick up the win. Crucially, Punk also retrieved the bracelet featuring the name of his wife and dog which has been at the centre of their bad blood in recent weeks.

On Raw in Denver, CM Punk was in a celebratory mood and reminded everyone that he is a businessman and is in WWE for money and gold. Punk set his sights on Gunther and the World Heavyweight Championship but Drew McIntyre had other ideas.

McIntyre attacked Punk as he posed on the announce table before delivering two vicious Claymore kicks. McIntyre then set about kicking Punk in the head as referees tried to end the violence. Drew McIntyre then ripped the offending bracelet from CM Punk’s wrist before snapping it and then forcing the beads into Punk’s mouth.

Following a break, CM Punk was seen in a neckbrace being wheeled towards an ambulance when McIntyre struck again. He got more licks in on the helpless Punk before he was finally dragged away.

CM Punk & Drew McIntyre Will Meet At Bad Blood

On Raw in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, CM Punk was absent following the attack but Drew McIntyre still had a lot to say. McIntyre confronted announcer Wade Barrett for trying to stop his attack on Punk but Raw General Manager Adam Pearce had some news for McIntyre.

Pearce told McIntyre the issues between himself and Punk need to come to a conclusive end and after speaking to CM Punk earlier in the day he was making a Hell In A Cell match between the two stars for Bad Blood.

The event will have echoes of the first Bad Blood event WWE held in 1997 – styled Badd Blood – which saw the inaugural Hell In A Cell match take place between The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels.
