Report: Update on Drew McIntyre’s WWE contract expiry
A major update has emerged regarding Drew McIntyre’s WWE contract.
One of the most popular stars on the roster, Drew McIntyre has been highlighted as a main-event star since his return to the promotion a few years ago. After re-signing with WWE last year, a new report from Fightful Select has revealed that The Scottish Warrior is expected to remain with the Stamford-based promotion at least until WrestleMania 2028.
Recently, former WWE writer Vince Russo invited McIntyre to work for JCW (Juggalo Championship Wrestling) when his deal expires. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case for a long time. According to the report, the former World Champion had opened up about how he wanted to work Juggalo Championship Wrestling during his indie days, which never ended up happening.
McIntyre recently fought Cody Rhodes for the World title on the November 1st edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event in a losing cause.
Drew McIntyre wants WWE WrestleMania to take place in Scotland
Recently, in an interview with SportBible, McIntyre opened up about his desire to see Scotland host a future WrestleMania.
It’s something I’ve been wanting to do [return home with the title], I think I started talking about it in 2019, going into the Royal Rumble in 2020 when I won, that I’m going to win the Rumble, win the title, get an open top bus, parade it around the UK as the only ever British champion. I have the chance to get this title, pull off the big one on Saturday. I’ve got to overcome Cody’s politics and influence to make sure I win the big one.”
Then I’ll bring the title home, then we have ourselves a parade and take it to WrestleMania. We’ve got places we can have WrestleMania. We can have it at Murrayfield, and everyone would travel, not just from in the UK. Then we get to check out the lovely scenery. I’d love to actually see some of the scenery. I cannot wait to do media on top of Edinburgh Castle or something. Head to some of the football games, a few Rangers games, we’ll finally be back on form after a disastrous start to the season. I’ll be right there, for one WrestleMania.”
