Over the past couple of days, there have been doubts over Drew McIntyre’s tag team match at WWE Summerslam 2025 after he was stuck in the United Kingdom, stranded in a remote area. In his absence, The Miz had also volunteered to fill the void in the biggest event of the summer. However, the Scottish Warrior is now back in the United States and is also set for this mega match.
Taking to his social media page, McIntyre has provided an update on his travel situation ahead of WWE SummerSlam 2025 and even took a shot at fellow WWE star, The Miz, for trying to take his place. Addressing the earlier sustained issues, the former WWE Champion noted that Miz wasn’t a perfect choice as his replacement and that he really overcame a nightmare situation to make it to the States.
“So the update is here. It really wasn’t looking good, it’s not felt good. I’ve seen Miz, not selfish of you, offered to take my place. Mike the Miz, Missionary Mike? It doesn’t matter. I’ve got an update for you, Mike. The answer is absolutely … Hell no.”

McIntyre was reportedly stuck in the UK due to passport issues, which put doubts over his tag team match this weekend at WWE Summerslam 2025, where he would be teaming up with Logan Paul to take on musician Jelly Roll and Randy Orton. Even McIntyre’s partner, Logan Paul, rejected the idea of having Miz by his side despite their past tag team partnership.
