Drew McIntyre returned to WWE on last week's episode of RAW, and fans reacted happily as expected. A veteran, in particular, was very pleased to see him back and shared his thoughts about the star's effect on programming.

As expected, The Scottish Warrior's comeback elicited a strong reaction from the live audience. His character work and in-ring skills have elevated him to the top rungs of the roster, and he is widely considered one of the names to watch out for in the Stamford-based promotion.

On Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Time Machine hosted by Mac Davis, veteran journalist Bill Apter also shared his reaction to Drew's WWE return. He stated:

"The fans were shocked and I am glad to see him back. Because he has been gone for a while, and even when he left, he wasn't fully utilized up yet. You know so, to me, anytime you see Drew McIntyre, things are gonna get better." [6:05 onwards]

Triple H also spoke about the WWE star's return recently

According to Triple H, Drew was apparently 'dying' to return to the active scene despite needing staples after his last match with CM Punk.

Speaking in an interview with Sports Illustrated, The Game said they had the flexibility in their roster to experiment with different ideas. He stated:

"He was dying to come back," Triple H said. "He wasn't hurt, he wasn't injured. Let's just give you a little breather here for a second. And whether that's spending some time at home enjoying your family, whatever that is, or whether that's, hey, I have this other project I wanna work on. I have this project that Netflix has come up with, I'm gonna work on that. Whatever. Us having that ability to morph and shift things around and keep things fresh, I think is a tremendous opportunity for us."

As of now, fans will have to stay tuned to see what Dew McIntyre plans to do next in WWE.
