WWE Raw results, recap, grades: Drew McIntyre gets violent revenge after Bash in Berlin loss to CM Punk

McIntyre attacked Punk as Punk attempted to turn his attention to the world heavyweight championship

Anyone who thought the issues between Drew McIntyre and CM Punk were finished after Punk won their strap match at Bash in Berlin was badly mistaken. McIntyre violently attacked Punk during Raw, sending the superstar from the arena in an ambulance.

Punk was attempting to turn his attention to Gunther and the world heavyweight championship when McIntyre struck. McIntyre delivered several Claymores to Punk before breaking the bracelet with the names of Punk's wife and dog that has been central to their ongoing feud.

Now, it appears Punk and McIntyre are destined to clash at least one more time.

CBS Sports was with you all night with recaps and highlights of all the action from Ball Arena in Denver.

Drew McIntyre gets violent revenge after Bash in Berlin loss to CM Punk

Drew McIntyre attacked CM Punk as Punk cut a promo claiming he put McIntyre in the rear-view mirror by winning their strap match at Bash in Berlin. Punk would go on to call out world heavyweight champion, Gunther, reminding everyone that his concern was making money.

It was at that point that McIntyre attacked, hitting multiple Claymores. McIntyre then took back the bracelet Punk reclaimed in Berlin. McIntyre broke the bracelet before shoving beads in Punk's mouth and hitting another Claymore. As Punk was being stretchered to an ambulance after a commercial break, McIntyre attacked again, ripping off Punk's neck brace and gouging Punk's eyes.

Obviously, the issues between Punk and McIntyre weren't going to end with the series even at one win apiece. Hopefully, McIntyre breaking the bracelet is the end of that unnecessary trinket in what is otherwise a blood feud. It's hard to imagine what the next step is for the two after their Bash in Berlin strap match but at least one more go-round is in the future and it should be a violent affair. Grade: B+

Ripley said she had an idea for Priest's partner, leading to Uso entering the match. Morgan interfered, which brought out Ripley, who chased her away with a crutch and set up the finish.
