Drew McIntyre is a top name in WWE, but fans believe that, despite that accolade, he is not given the opportunities he deserves.

Recently, Cody Rhodes dethroned The Scottish Warrior for the Undisputed WWE Championship, and fans have been furious about it. The common consensus is that McIntyre should have been a part of the title picture at WrestleMania 42. However, WWE isn’t too concerned about the backlash.

On the other hand, it has been claimed that McIntyre will lock horns with Jacob Fatu at The Show of Shows, while Cody Rhodes puts the title on the line against Randy Orton since Rhodes vs. Orton has more juice than McIntyre vs. Orton.

A Facebook post recently claimed that Drew McIntyre will be leaving WWE after WrestleMania 42. This got fans talking and stirring theories about McIntyre leaving due to creative differences.

Sean Ross Sapp from Fightful has confirmed that the news is fake. It was revealed on social media, and the screenshot was shared.

WWE’s creative decision to remove McIntyre from the title picture could be related to The Scottish Warrior having to step away from WWE for a while after The Show of Shows to begin filming for Highlander.
