It is unknown as of now when fans will get to see McIntyre in action again. The WWE Universe hopes to see McIntyre in the Royal Rumble match. The Scottish Warrior, being one of the toughest opponents and winner of the 2020 Royal Rumble, shouldn’t miss the match.

Drew McIntyre has fought a lot of top stars in the company, and recently he feuded with Roman Reigns for the Undisputed Championship. The feud saw them fighting against each other at the Clash at the Castle PLE, but McIntyre failed to win at the event.

During a recent interview with Faction 919, Drew McIntyre was asked about his favorite opponent in the WWE. The former WWE Champion stated that he loves working with Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns. He said that if he had to pick his personal favorite, it would be Sheamus.

McIntyre said that he has known Sheamus for a long time, and they both have a great understanding in the ring. He said that they both share the same passion and can put on a great match each time for everybody’s entertainment.

“If I had to pick one, I’d probably say Sheamus, just because we’ve known each other for so long and been through so much together. [We] have an understanding that we can just beat the crap out of each other for everybody’s entertainment. And any chance we get to get in the ring together, especially now with fans there, we see it as a privilege.”

The rivalry culminated at the Crown Jewel, and the record now stands at 1-1 between them.

Kross said that the Scottish warrior understands the audience very well and is one of the most hard-working people he has come across.

“I mean, I would work with Drew McIntyre seven days a week. He has such an excellent ear for the audience — live, when we’re out there — just as a worker…… He’s one of the hardest working people I’ve ever met, and I would probably say one of the toughest too.”

Drew McIntyre has had great success during his second stint in the company, but he aims to achieve more. The former WWE Champion is a significant part of the company. If not at the Royal Rumble, then WWE must try to bring him back before WrestleMania 39.
