5 superstars who would benefit from a strong showing in the WWE World Cup

#3 Drew McIntyre (Scotland)

McIntyre is already a huge star.

Back in 2009, Mr McMahon publically declared that Drew McIntyre was the Chosen One and would go on to achieve huge success in the WWE. Who would have thought that success would come nearly a decade after he first debuted? That seems to be the case.

There are major differences between McIntyre then and McIntyre now. He has become a much more mature, well-groomed and well-rounded performer ever since he was released from WWE in 2014. The Scotsman has an impeccable attitude and as really turned his career around to become a huge star now.

He wrestled on the Indies and rebuilt his career, before ultimately making his way back into the WWE system. They just couldn't resist him. His journey took him to NXT, where he became the NXT Champion. McIntyre's arrival on Raw alongside Dolph Ziggler has also completely reinvigorated the Showoff.

They are currently the Raw Tag Team Champions and are a big part of the main event storyline on the Red brand. Ziggler and McIntyre are big players, consistently being the best part of the show every single week. This wave of momentum should just be the beginning for the Sinister Scotsman.

Provided he isn't still a champion in a month's time, Drew McIntyre should take the WWE World Cup by storm, tearing through the competition and having fantastic matches in the process. This tournament could put a lot of shine on him, he already is money and could be able to achieve whatever he wants in the wrestling world.

If he continues on this trail, McIntyre is guaranteed to have a big career in WWE and potentially be a multi-time world champion. He is living and breathing proof that hard work pays off.
