Drew McIntyre is one of the best wrestlers WWE has right now. Ever since his return, he has been taking down one superstar after another. He is highly talented, and can destroy anyone and everyone.
He has won several championships in WWE and in other pro-wrestling promotions. McIntyre is definitely one of the best performing wrestlers of 2018, as he can deliver excellent promos and has perfected his heel character.
McIntyre would love to keep the good run going in 2019 as well. He can win many more championships and accolades, and could gift us several world class matches. He is definitely a star WWE would keep promoting, and would be one of the wrestlers to look out for. Here are four possible best road-maps for him in 2019.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
#4 Winning the Money in the Bank contract
McIntyre is one of the best possible options to win the Money in the Bank ladder match this year. If he wins the contract, he would be a threat to every champion in the locker room. He could easily cash in and become the champion as per his convenience. This could be a major boost in his career.
Most wrestlers who won the Money in the Bank contract previously have made an everlasting impression for themselves. McIntyre winning the contract would open up several new story-lines and feuds.
He could go after the Universal Championship and win it eventually. He is without a doubt the most deserving superstar on RAW to win that competition. He could be one of the best Universal Champions of all time.
McIntyre winning the Money in the Bank would actually be good for business. WWE management should try and make this happen.
#3 Winning the Royal Rumble
The Royal Rumble is one of the most anticipated PPVs of all time. Every year, one wrestler beats the odds to face a champion of his choice at WrestleMania. The question present on the minds of every single WWE fans is - who will win the Royal Rumble in 2019? The best possible answer would be Drew McIntyre.
If Drew McIntyre wins the Rumble, it makes the perfect setting for a main event match at WrestleMania. He could challenge either the SmackDown or Raw champion. He has proven in 2018 that he is eyeing championship gold.
Also, McIntyre has not had much success previously at the Royal Rumble. He could rewrite history this time.
It would be best for business.
#2 Winning the Universal Championship
McIntyre is without a doubt the most deserving wrestler to win the Universal Championship. He is an excellent heel character, and could become the first ever Scottish Universal Champion. He could be an excellent Universal Champion, and officially become the face of Monday Night RAW.
The current Universal Champion, Brock Lesnar, has demeaned the stature of the Championship. Lesnar is often called a lazy, part time champion. He is expected to drop the title in 2019.
Currently, WWE seems puzzled about making Braun Strowman the next Universal Champion. Therefore, Drew McIntyre is perfect.
A match between Drew McIntyre and Brock Lesnar is highly anticipated. The contest between the duo would certainly be a dream match. McIntyre has already won the NXT, Intercontinental, and the tag team championships. It is the right time to crown him as the new Universal Champion.
#1 Feud with John Cena
Perhaps the best thing WWE has done in 2019 so far is to make Drew McIntyre face John Cena in a tag team match. However, we don't know if WWE will continue this feud or not. In my opinion, this could be the best feud in either of their career profiles.
John Cena has faced many outstanding wrestlers in his career, however, Drew McIntyre is unlike any other opponent he has wrestled against in the past. This feud could headline several PPVs. In fact, John Cena versus Drew McIntyre could very well be the main event of WrestleMania, if built properly.
Since John Cena has decided he will no more be the face of WWE, it would make sense if he promotes and helps Drew McIntyre realise his full potential.
