If the Twitter account WrestleVotes, which has regularly broken news in the past is to be believed, then WrestleMania plans for Drew McIntyre may already be in place, which is why the title was probably kept around his waist at TLC.
WM: Source stressed nothing is close to official or concrete, but as a working idea the following is what’s being considered: Reigns vs Goldberg, Edge vs Orton & an interesting twist: McIntyre vs Lesnar vs Keith Lee. Lots of variables in play, especially the attendance factor.
While the report states that nothing has been set in stone, Drew McIntyre, Brock Lesnar, and Keith Lee could certainly have a big match, and that is not a reference to the size of all three men.
Yes, this match could also happen without Drew McIntyre holding the WWE Championship, but it would be a very odd match then, especially if Brock Lesnar is coming back for a big payday. It just makes sense for Drew McIntyre to carry the WWE Championship all the way to WrestleMania, considering that he just won it back from Randy Orton.
Plus, there is the element of a Drew McIntyre vs. Brock Lesnar rematch that can be explored, with the UFC star returning to reclaim the title he lost to Drew McIntyre.
