Drew McIntyre vs Sheamus for the WWE Championship?

While nothing has been confirmed just yet, things do seem to be pointing towards the two friends facing off soon for the WWE title.

Drew McIntyre did hint at a possible storyline with Sheamus in the future while talking to Sports Illustrated earlier this year. He said:

"We were the top feud in Europe before we both signed with WWE in 2007. We came to America together, wrestled in Florida Championship Wrestling together, and we were both heavyweight champions there. The night I won the Intercontinental title, he won the heavyweight title. Obviously, his career took off and mine took a downward spiral. We could include so many parts of our past in that feud that have never been featured on television."
