Ryback continues to say “Feed Me More,” and he’s going to have the opportunity to enjoy a pretty big feast on Sunday.
On tonight’s edition of “Monday Night Raw,” Ryback confirmed previous rumors and announced that he will be defending his Intercontinental Championship this Sunday at “Night of Champions” against Kevin Owens.

Owens came out and interrupted Ryback’s promo, insulting the fact that the self-help book The Secret by Rhonda Byrne changed his life. After taking some more jabs at him and calling him weak, Ryback told his story about how he had been pushed to the top of WWE, but after hitting rock bottom, has fought his way back.
Kevin Owens has most recently been involved in a program with Cesaro, defeating him both at “SummerSlam,” as well as the following evening on “Raw.” In his last main roster title bout, he lost his match for the United States Championship against John Cena at “Battleground” in July. Ryback has been Intercontinental Champion since winning the title at “Elimination Chamber” on May 31 of this year.
Editor’s Note:
I am looking forward to this one. Ryback has been getting better both in the ring and on the mic, and I believe firmly that Kevin Owens will be World Champion sometime in 2016. I think that both men will bring the best out of the other one, and put on a great showing at “Night of Champions.”
