Drew McIntyre vowed that his Hell in a Cell match against CM Punk at WWE’s Bad Blood premium live event on Saturday would bring "justified violence" and the promise was kept.
McIntyre and Punk were both bloodied messes in the ring as the fight opened up the event. The two went tit for tat, opening each other up and causing a lot of bleeding in the ring. The "Scottish Warrior" opened up after receiving a toolbox to the head at the hands of Punk.

Throughout the match, the WWE referee would offer McIntyre and Punk a towel to wipe their faces. They were each thrown against the chain-linked cell and each competitor was slammed onto the steel steps. McIntyre even put Punk through a table at one point in the match.
Both McIntyre and Punk went through hell and back. It was Punk who picked up the victory, marking the likely end of a 10-month feud that started when Punk returned to WWE at Survivor Series last year.

On Sunday, McIntyre showed off his scars. A massive cut on the top of his head required several staples to be put together.
