Drew McIntyre made waves last week with his shocking return as he laid out Sami Zayn with a devastating Claymore. McIntyre also confirmed on RAW that he was behind Jey Uso's backstage assault.

The Scottish Warrior's assault on members of The OG Bloodline continued as he arrived on SmackDown to shatter Jimmy Uso's jaw. His actions may demand serious action, but could also lead to a massive trade as McIntyre moves to the blue brand.

On that note, let's look at three directions for Drew McIntyre if he moves to SmackDown.


Charlotte Flair to return and wrestle a CURRENT CHAMPION?

#3. Drew McIntyre forms a tag team with Kevin Owens

As his recent activities show, The Scottish Warrior has a huge problem with The Bloodline. McIntyre was very close to winning the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship from Roman Reigns at Clash at The Castle 2022, but his family, particularly Solo Sikoa, cost him his moment.

Since losing to Reigns in Cardiff, McIntyre has been obsessed with The Bloodline, accusing them of his failures. Much like The Scottish Warrior has spent much of his time fighting the group, Kevin Owens also has a problem with the entire family.

KO betrayed his friend, Cody Rhodes, just because he teamed with Reigns. Hence, Owens and McIntyre could become a tag team bonded by their hatred for The Bloodline.


#2. McIntyre dethrones Shinsuke Nakamura

Shinsuke Nakamura shocked the world when he defeated LA Knight at Survivor Series: WarGames to win the United States Championship. Nakamura has suddenly revitalized his career and could potentially have a lengthy reign.

The Wayward Samurai has a long list of challengers, but the dynamics could shift if McIntyre joins the fray. The Scottish Warrior has never won the US Title. If he does, he could become a Grand Slam Champion.

The World Title scene is complicated, but McIntyre's chances of winning the US Championship at the moment seem more likely.


#1. The Scottish Warrior gets into a tussle with Wade Barrett

It is already known that Michael Cole will be back in the RAW commentary team next year on Netflix, which could lead Wade Barrett to return to SmackDown, where he could re-ignite his issues with Drew McIntyre.

During his rivalry with CM Punk, McIntyre told Barrett to stay out of his business. The English commentator holds immense respect for The Scottish Warrior. Although he is retired, Barret could return to in-ring competition, and a feud with the Scotsman would be incredibly entertaining.

As per reports, the company has plans to bring back Barrett for a feud with Drew McIntyre.
