It’s been six weeks since Drew McIntyre last appeared on WWE programming, following his grueling Hell in a Cell loss to CM Punk at Bad Blood. That match concluded a nearly nine-month feud with “The Best in the World,” but it also left the future uncertain for “The Scottish Warrior.”
McIntyre’s return is expected soon, and fans are eager to see what’s next for the former WWE Champion. However, questions remain: Will he return as a marquee player in time for Royal Rumble and WrestleMania 41, or will WWE struggle to find him a meaningful storyline?
What do you think the plans are for Drew McIntyre heading into WrestleMania?
I don’t see any clear storylines for him in the near future, especially not any major ones. pic.twitter.com/IzTGbLaoCS

The Lack of Clear Direction for Drew McIntyre
During his feud with CM Punk, McIntyre also found himself tangled with top stars like Seth Rollins, Damian Priest, Gunther, and Jey Uso. Yet as WWE’s creative direction moves forward, all four have major storylines lined up:
Damian Priest may rekindle tensions with Judgment Day leader Finn Balor.
Seth Rollins seems destined for another showdown with CM Punk.
Jey Uso remains central to The Bloodline saga.
Gunther is rumored to face WWE legend Goldberg in an epic encounter.
With these top-tier rivalries on RAW, McIntyre could find himself relegated to mid-card storylines for the time being. While his talent and star power are undeniable, the crowded main event scene leaves limited options.
A Feud with Wade Barrett Could Be the Spark
One potential angle could see McIntyre reignite tension with his longtime friend and RAW commentator, Wade Barrett. During his feud with CM Punk, McIntyre teased a confrontation with Barrett, creating buzz among fans.
Although Barrett has retired from in-ring competition, his sharp wit and charisma could make for a compelling storyline. A feud with the former Intercontinental Champion could allow McIntyre to showcase his villainous side, setting the stage for a return to the title picture.
Another intriguing option might involve McIntyre revisiting his time in TNA. Nearly a decade ago, McIntyre was part of The Rising, a faction with current WWE stars LA Knight and Tonga Loa. Though their partnership was short-lived, it’s a part of McIntyre’s history WWE could explore.
If McIntyre transitions to SmackDown, a rivalry with LA Knight—who now holds the United States Championship could be a fresh and exciting direction. The storyline could draw from their shared history, giving McIntyre a meaningful program while allowing both stars to shine.
The road ahead as McIntyre’s return approaches, WWE has a crucial opportunity to keep “The Scottish Warrior” in the spotlight. Whether it’s reigniting an old feud, embracing his heel persona, or entering a new rivalry, the key will be ensuring McIntyre remains a prominent figure on the road to WrestleMania 41.
Fans are ready to see what’s next for the former World Heavyweight Champion—it’s now up to WWE to deliver.
