Drew McIntyre has been absent from WWE programming for the past few weeks. He was last seen at WrestleMania 39 in a triple-threat match for the Intercontinental Championship. As one of the top superstars on SmackDown, fans are eager to know when he will return to the ring, and he could be back in action as soon as this month.
It was reported earlier that The Scottish Warrior's contract will expire in January 2024, with the SmackDown star yet to sign an extension. Since then, rumors have circulated about his potential exit from the company. Meanwhile, McIntyre has blacked out his Twitter account, seemingly adding fuel to the fire.
With the WWE Draft quickly approaching, this could mean that the former champion could be open to other opportunities both inside and outside the promotion.
AEW All In 2023 is scheduled to be held in London this August, and fans have speculated that the Scotsman could jump ship and appear at the high-profile pay-per-view. However, during an interview on KTAL NBC 6, LA Knight surprisingly mentioned that McIntyre would attend the WWE Sunday Stunner event on April 30.

The Scottish Warrior is still in his prime, with the potential to reclaim his spot in the main event scene and possibly win another world title in the company. While most WWE fans would be disappointed if Drew McIntyre decides to move to AEW, his career will undoubtedly continue to prosper wherever he ends up.
