I had reported this on @theLTGpodcast Patreon a few weeks ago, but Bray Wyatt/Drew McIntyre had at least been pitched for SummerSlam at one point. I’m not sure how far those discussions went, but it was talked about at one point.
My Take:
- That could have been a solid match and feud. Too bad that we didn’t get to see it.
