During his podcast Wrestling with Freddie, Freddie opined that WWE has no plans of putting a title on Drew McIntyre as he is not planning to re-sign his contract with the company. He believes that it is the reason why The Scottish Warrior did not capture the title at Crown Jewel.

I think Drew McIntyre is leaving WWE, I can't say everything, but I can say a lot. I don't know why you'd put Drew even in [the WWE Crown Jewel] match unless you know he's not gonna re-sign.
