Drew McIntyre’s Post WrestleMania 41 Plans Could Change Depending on Title Picture – Drew McIntyre has had a strong year, highlighted by his WWE World Title win over Seth Rollins at WrestleMania, only to lose it moments later to Damian Priest via Money in the Bank cash-in. His intense rivalry with CM Punk has also kept him in the spotlight.
Now, McIntyre is set to face Priest at WrestleMania 41, but his future direction could shift depending on the outcome of the Undisputed WWE Championship match.
According to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE originally planned for McIntyre to feud with Cody Rhodes following WrestleMania 41. However, if John Cena defeats Rhodes for the title, McIntyre’s next move might change, as a program between him and Cena seems unlikely.
Dave Meltzer reported: “Damian Priest vs. Drew McIntyre (McIntyre was moved to SmackDown originally for a title match series with Rhodes, but if Rhodes loses that falls apart as I don’t see them doing Cena vs. McIntyre) and Naomi vs. Jade Cargill were all rumored, seemed likely coming out of Elimination Chamber and pushed hard on television this week.”
Additionally, McIntyre recently hinted at major plans following a conversation with The Rock. You can read more about that here.
