This is part 4 of our WWE SummerSlam 2020 live coverage (part 3 is here).
Up next is the co-main event of the evening and it is for the WWE Championship.
“The Legend Killer” Randy Orton makes his way out first, followed by WWE Champion Drew McIntyre. Both men got good pyro entrances.
The crowd noise (or the piped-in noise) was really good during the in-ring introductions.
Orton has the upper hand in this match early on.
