Drew McIntyre Reportedly Unhappy With WWE’s Creative And Money Offer – A few hours before WWE SmackDown went on the air, it was reported that Drew McIntyre was pulled from the show and a signing that was scheduled for earlier today. At the signing, he was replaced by GUNTHER.
PWTorch’s Wade Keller provided an update on McIntyre and added that, in addition to the reports about a health issue, McIntyre is said to be unhappy with the creative and the money offer for his next deal.
Keller said, “We alluded to this that there’s been talk that he is unhappy with his current situation in WWE and I’m hearing it’s kind of a mix of creative and money and what kind of offer he’s getting for a renewal. It sounds like WWE is taking seriously the possibility that he is going to let his deal run out rather than agree to something that he believes is less than he deserves or less than he what he thinks he has coming.”
Keller continued, “He was gonna be at SmackDown and now he has been pulled so I think that situation will probably, based on what I’m hearing, be decided pretty quickly one way or the other.”
Keller also said that he heard that McIntyre was really beat up from the Triple Threat Match with Sheamus and GUNTHER at WrestleMania:
“There’s a chance that he was pulled from SmackDown, in part because he is just really physically beat up from that match and so just not having to travel and him getting a day off was sort of given to him either at his request or the medical team in WWE just said, ‘yea with what he’s been through, he should have some time off.'”
Apparently, both stories are true. McIntyre is beat up but there are issues with cash and creative and, at this point, they are nowhere near close to an agreement on money terms.
