A new gimmick is the best option left for some of the Superstars

#2 Drew McIntyre

How long will he have to wait before McIntyre finds his way into the title picture?

Drew McIntyre was announced as one of the top picks and he has been drafted to Monday Night RAW. Once again, WWE have the opportunity to recreate McIntyre’s mad run, destroying anyone who stands in his way.

McIntyre is a skilled wrestler and he convincingly dominates his opponents. He has the potential to become one of the best heels on the current roster but WWE need to pair him up against Superstars higher up in the card. He is of the few WWE Superstars, who can assert his challenge for the title and keep the champions concerned.

The last time McIntyre was included in a feud, he had aligned himself with Shane McMahon. But they lost against Roman Reigns and The Undertaker in a Tag Team match.

Now that speculation about his return from injury are doing rounds, it can be expected that McIntyre is far from being a silent observer for long. The ‘Scottish Psychopath’ needs to return to his brutal self and take on new challenges on the Red Brand.

McIntyre was the fifth pick in the first round of Draft 2019 and he can be expected to soon challenge Seth Rollins for the Universal Championship.
