Drew McIntyre to unite with real-life friend and form brand new WWE alliance on SmackDown? Possibility explored

Drew McIntyre failed to punch his ticket to WrestleMania during the Men's Royal Rumble match and the Elimination Chamber, and the reason for both his losses was Damian Priest. Both men have been trying to tear each other apart on the blue brand, and the Scottish Psychopath has made some enemies on his Road to WrestleMania.

Damian Priest teased teaming up with Jimmy Uso in a recent post on X, which could eventually lead to Drew McIntyre aligning with his real-life friend Wade Barrett. This could intensify their feud with tag teams involved, marking Barrett's return to the ring for the first time in nine years.

McIntyre unleashed an assault on Jimmy Uso on the blue brand, which took the latter off TV for a couple of weeks. While Jimmy has returned, he has turned his attention to the United States Championship, leaving his feud with McIntyre unfinished.

With Damian Priest's recent post, it is teased that Jimmy Uso might turn his attention back on the former two-time Elimination Chamber match winner, making this a two-on-one feud. This could lead to Wade Barrett turning heel and attacking Jimmy to align with his long-time friend Drew McIntyre.

A potential tag team match between the two duos on the European Tour could make things more interesting ahead of WrestleMania 41.
