Bobby Lashley will defend his WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre at Hell in a Cell. The match was officially confirmed on the May 31st episode of RAW.
Drew McIntyre earned his championship by defeating Kofi Kingston in a number one contenders match on RAW. After the match, both competitors showed their respect for each other:

The WWE Champion was banned from ringside during the match, but made his way to the stage after the contest to stare down his new challenger. Because this feud has previous history and due to the nature of the event, expect this match to take place inside the Hell in a Cell structure. Currently, a stipulation has not been announced for the upcoming match.
This is the second match that has been confirmed for the June 20th pay per view. The other match announced will be for the RAW Women’s Championship. Rhea Ripley will defend her title against Charlotte Flair. Once again, this match is currently still advertised as a standard singles match.
