Since getting traded to Smackdown in 2021, Drew McIntyre’s run with WWE has been very lackluster as he was time and time again overshadowed by the undisputed champion Roman Reigns. His contract is reportedly set to expire within the next nine months but not it looks like it be ended by this coming summer. Interestingly, the superstar himself hinted at exploring other options before deciding on his future.
Meanwhile, speculations around his future were further fueled up after Wrestlemania 39 after Drew McIntyre was pinned in the Triple Threat Intercontinental Title Match also featuring Sheamus and the champion Gunther. This was his first clean pinfall loss without interference in a long time and this can’t be considered just a coincidence.
