The Rock recently took to Instagram to share his excitement over Drew McIntyre’s new WWE contract and presented the Scottish wrestler with a heartfelt gift.
After weeks of rumors, Drew McIntyre has officially re-signed with WWE. His return was marked by a significant victory at WrestleMania XL, where he captured the World Heavyweight Championship. However, his celebration was cut short when Damian Priest, the Archer of Infamy, cashed in his Money in the Bank contract following an attack on McIntyre by CM Punk.

The Rock’s Potential WWE Comeback
Former WWE star Aiden English speculated on a potential high-profile match for The Rock upon his return to WWE. Speaking on the Rebooked podcast, English suggested that The Rock could challenge Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
Following his appearance at WrestleMania XL, where The Rock ended his recent tenure with WWE but hinted at a future match with Cody Rhodes, the speculation has only intensified.
“I would imagine Cody is not in line for any even remotely ‘transitional reign.’ Even if it doesn’t last another four years. I mean, we’re getting six to nine months out of this at least. I would imagine probably even next year’s ‘Mania. [I can see Cody walking into ‘Mania as champion.] Yeah, I think we’re gonna go to Cody-Rock potentially at 41. I feel like they might hold off on that. That or we get ourselves around to Rock-Roman [Reigns] finally proper and going somewhere else with Cody.”
The Rock’s future involvement in WWE remains a topic of keen interest, especially since he officially joined The Bloodline earlier this year and played a pivotal role in their feud with Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins. Fans are eagerly waiting to see when The Final Boss will step back into the WWE ring.
