When the CM Punk returned to WWE, there was a lot of buzz around the wrestling community. Many people wanted to see him fulfill his destiny of headlining WrestleMania. However, his road to WrestleMania ended even before it could start when Drew McIntyre brutally injured Punk. Since then, The Scottish Warrior has made it his priority to make fun of the same. On the recent SmackDown episode, he continued to take shots at The Second City Saint.

Ahead of his Elimination Chamber match, McIntyre spoke about the importance of becoming the #1 contender. The two-time WWE Champion mentioned in a backstage interview that if he loses at Elimination Chamber, then his entire career would be useless as CM Punk’s return to WWE.

The 38-year-old will have the opportunity to become a World Champion once again. Without a doubt, McIntyre is the favorite to win the match after his huge win over Cody Rhodes on Monday Night Raw. It will be interesting to see how things play out for him on the Road to WrestleMania.

Will Drew McIntyre headline WrestleMania again?

Drew McIntyre has main evented the Biggest Stage of Them All as a challenge earlier as well. He has won the WWE Championship, and now his eyes are on Seth Rollins and the World Heavyweight Championship.

Even though Drew is playing the role of a bad guy, the fans are fairly behind him to capture the spot at WrestleMania against Seth Rollins. The two men have a history between them as well, making this potential match even more interesting.

Drew McIntyre will be locked inside the Elimination Chamber with Logan Paul, Kevin Owens, LA Knight, Randy Orton, and Bobby Lashley. Four competitors out of six are all former world champions, and they are looking to get back on top of their game. Therefore, it will be a tough challenge for The Scottish Warrior as he remains deterministic to climb to the top of WWE once again.
