At Saturday Night's Main Event on December 14th, Drew McIntyre will make his in-ring return for the first time since Bad Blood 2024. The Scottish Warrior will face Sami Zayn in a singles match.
While McIntyre vs. Zayn will be an interesting watch, an unadvertised name could appear and take the 39-year-old out. The unadvertised name who could carry out this attack is former Undisputed WWE Universal Champion and OG Bloodline leader Roman Reigns.
Reigns could attack McIntyre because The Scottish Warrior chose to mess with members of the OG Bloodline. By carrying out this attack, Reigns won't only be sending a message to Drew McIntyre, but he will also show Jey Uso and Sami Zayn that he has their back.

While this angle is speculative, it won't be surprising to see Reigns interfere, as Triple H and his team would do anything to make Saturday Night's Main Event a big success. If Reigns does not interfere, it will be interesting to see how the match between these two will go down.
What happened when Drew McIntyre last wrestled inside a WWE ring?
As mentioned above, the last time Drew McIntyre wrestled in a WWE ring was at Bad Blood 2024. At the Premium Live Event that was held in Atlanta, McIntyre wrestled CM Punk in a Hell in a Cell match. However, it's important to note that this was no ordinary match.
The Hell in a Cell bout between McIntyre and Punk was a rubber match. Before this, McIntyre and Punk had wrestled twice - once in a Special Guest Referee (Seth Rollins) match at SummerSlam and once in a Strap Match at Bash in Berlin. While McIntyre was victorious at SummerSlam, Punk won the Strap Match.
Hence, there was a lot of anticipation around the match at Bad Blood. While the contest was highly entertaining and both men did their best to win, it was Punk who took the victory. This loss at Bad Blood was a massive setback for The Scottish Warrior, given everything he had to undergo in his rivalry against Punk.
Therefore, when Sami Zayn wrestles Drew McIntyre at Saturday Night's Main Event, he will have to be careful because McIntyre will be eager to get back in the win column. It will be interesting to see how Zayn deals with a hungry McIntyre on December 14th.
