<p>Drew McIntyre was forced to miss this week&#8217;s episode of Monday Night Raw after testing positive for COVID-19 earlier today but was still able to be part of the show after pre-recording several videos ahead of the show. </p>



<p>McIntyre&#8217;s second video segment of the show saw the WWE Champion address Goldberg&#8217;s challenge from last week&#8217;s episode of Raw. </p>



<p>The former Universal Champion wanted to challenge for the WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble, but Raw came to an end before McIntyre was able to respond due to a few timing issues.</p>



<p>The current Champion accepted the challenge which will now see him put his Championship on the line against the 56-year-old Hall of Famer in just under three weeks&#8217; time. </p>
