Drew McIntyre returned to WWE on the December 2 edition of RAW. In the main event, he came crashing down against Sami Zayn, who gave him a Claymore Kick right across his face.
Zayn had just faced Seth Rollins in a singles match, and McIntyre came out all of a sudden, attacking the former Intercontinental Champion. While it's unclear why McIntyre went after Zayn, it's speculated that the Honorary Uce's reunion with Roman Reigns and OG Bloodline might have prompted The Scottish Warrior to attack him.
Moreover, Jey Uso was also attacked by an unknown assailant on RAW this week. While it hasn't been revealed who it was, the chances of Drew McIntyre being behind the attack cannot be neglected. If McIntyre is actually behind it, the fans might see some other superstars attacked by him in the next few weeks. This listicle will list five names whom McIntyre could target next.
#1 Roman Reigns could face Drew McIntyre
Drew McIntyre has an unfinished story with Roman Reigns. He was one win away from beating The Tribal Chief and winning the WWE Championship at Clash at the Castle in 2022. However, the match was spoilt by a debuting Solo Sikoa.

Since then, McIntyre hasn't been able to get his hands on Reigns in a singles match. Roman Reigns has been one of McIntyre's biggest rivals, and the Scottish Warrior might want to settle scores with him now. Thereby, after Sami Zayn, Roman Reigns might be McIntyre's next target in WWE.
#2 Jimmy Uso
While Jimmy hasn't been officially written off TV after his Survivor Series injury, an attack from McIntyre on SmackDown might do the needful. As part of Roman Reigns' Bloodline, Jimmy has been a thorn in McIntyre's eyes for quite some time.
McIntyre even faced The Bloodline at Survivor Series: WarGames in 2022 alongside The Brawling Brutes (Sheamus, Ridge Holland, and Butch). However, he lost the bout. He might take revenge on Roman Reigns by taking down one more member from the OG Bloodline now.
#3 Solo Sikoa
While Solo isn't part of Roman's OG Bloodline anymore and is in the opposite camp, Drew McIntyre still has bad blood with Solo after what the Bloodline 2.0 leader did to him at Clash in the Castle in 2022.
Solo caused the last-minute outside interference after emerging from beneath the ring. He pulled the referee as he was about to count the pinfall to declare McIntyre's victory against Roman Reigns. Drew McIntyre, though, had a match against Solo Sikoa on SmackDown later. He couldn't beat the Bloodline 2.0 leader, as Karrion Kross attacked him during the match. So, he might do it now that he has returned to the WWE with some new targets in mind.
#4 Seth Rollins
Rollins and McIntyre feuded with each other at WrestleMania 40, where The Scottish Warrior defeated Rollins comfortably. However, their tale wasn't over yet. When McIntyre was in a rivalry with CM Punk, Rollins played the referee during their match at SummerSlam 2024.
If not Roman Reigns, Drew might go after Rollins because of The Visionary's support for The Usos and Sami Zayn. Drew McIntyre might ambush Rollins for his hypocrisy, that he doesn't like Reigns, but speaks well with The Usos and Sami Zayn.
#5 CM Punk
At last, McIntyre might also attack The Straight Edge Superstar for aligning with Roman Reigns' OG Bloodline at Survivor Series: WarGames. The two have already engaged in a heated rivalry, fighting each other on three different WWE PLEs.
Drew McIntyre might not be done yet after losing two out of three fights against Punk. He might attack Punk on RAW and take him off TV for a significant period. Moreover, their face-off on next week's RAW would be epic. It remains to be seen whom McIntyre targets next.
