According to WrestlingNews, The Viper will defeat McIntyre at SummerSlam and became the new WWE Champion. Afterwards, Randy Orton could defend the WWE Championship against Edge at next year’s Royal Rumble or WrestleMania 37. Fans are speculating that Randy Orton will then lose the title to Edge and the Hall of Famer will start his final championship reign. It is rumoured that Drew McIntyre could start a feud with Edge and end up winning his WWE Championship back eventually.

“An idea was pitched to have Orton win the title and then defend against Edge at the Royal Rumble or WrestleMania and McIntyre could win the title again at a later date to get his true crowning moment with fans in attendance,” claimed the report.
