WWE fans in Glasgow, Scotland, are in for a treat as Drew McIntyre is reportedly scheduled to compete for the World Heavyweight Championship at the 2024 Clash at the Castle Premium Live Event. The Scottish Warrior, currently out of in-ring action due to an injury, is expected to face off against Damian Priest for the coveted title on June 15.
As McIntyre navigates a heated feud with CM Punk on Monday Night RAW, the WWE Universe is abuzz with excitement over the possibility of witnessing their beloved Scottish superstar tackle the World Heavyweight Championship in his homeland. The seeds of dissension were sown when Punk attacked McIntyre after the latter dethroned Seth Rollins for the title, leading to Damian Priest cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase to become the new champion.
The tension between McIntyre and Priest escalated on this week’s RAW, as the Judgment Day member confronted the Scottish Psychopath, setting the stage for a thrilling title bout. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the highly anticipated match is expected to take place at Clash at the Castle, an event that promises to electrify the Glasgow crowd.
Notably, the report suggests that despite Priest being positioned as a babyface, the Scottish crowd will undoubtedly rally behind their hometown hero, McIntyre. The news comes on the heels of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson announcing McIntyre’s contract renewal with WWE, complete with a personalized Scottish Claymore gift.
In a recent interview with Daily Mail, McIntyre cited spending quality time with his family as a crucial aspect of his new deal. As fans eagerly await WWE’s official confirmation of the World Heavyweight Championship match, one thing is certain – McIntyre’s homeland will be buzzing with excitement as he locks horns with Priest for the most coveted prize in WWE.
The question on everyone’s mind is: Can McIntyre overcome the odds and bring the World Heavyweight Championship back to his homeland, or will Priest’s cunning and skill prove too much for The Scottish Warrior? The world will be watching as WWE’s Clash at the Castle unfolds on June 15.
