Drew McIntyre, the Scottish Psychopath and former WWE Champion, has put to rest any rumors of leaving the Stamford-based promotion. In a recent interview with PWInsider, McIntyre categorically denied ever considering a jump to another wrestling company, reaffirming his commitment to WWE.
The rumors of McIntyre’s potential departure began swirling during WrestleMania XL weekend, when it was speculated that his contract was set to expire and a new deal was yet to be signed. However, The Rock soon took to social media to announce that McIntyre had, in fact, inked a new deal with WWE, putting fans’ minds at ease.
When asked if he had ever entertained the idea of leaving WWE to spend more time with his family or explore opportunities elsewhere, McIntyre shut down the notion, stating that WWE was always his wrestling home. This declaration will undoubtedly come as a relief to fans of the Scottish Warrior, who has been an integral part of WWE’s main roster for several years.
McIntyre’s loyalty to WWE is particularly noteworthy, given that he has faced his fair share of challenges in recent times. The 38-year-old star was forced to take time off from television in 2023 due to a family bereavement, with his wife’s sister passing away. During this difficult period, McIntyre praised Triple H and Nick Khan for their support, expressing his gratitude for their help during a testing phase in his personal life.
Currently, McIntyre is sidelined with an injury, which has kept him out of in-ring action. Despite this, he remains embroiled in a heated feud with CM Punk and Damian Priest, with fans eagerly anticipating his return to challenge for Priest’s championship gold.
McIntyre’s commitment to WWE is a testament to his dedication to the company and its fans. As one of the promotion’s top Superstars, his presence is crucial to WWE’s continued success. With his new deal in place, fans can look forward to many more thrilling performances from the Scottish Psychopath, who is sure to continue entertaining audiences for years to come.
