Having interacted with Drew McIntyre, one thing that I can confirm is that the man's personality is quite close to his gimmick. He does believe that it takes a certain amount of hunger to rise to the top of the food chain, and this may have been the reason why he concealed his injury until it was late.

Apparently the fact that The Fiend was fast-tracked into the Universal Championship picture stemmed from the notion that Drew McIntyre had to take time away owing to sickness and surgery, as per Tom Colohue of Sportskeeda. From the reports that have surfaced online, it does not seem like it'll be too long before McIntyre makes a return to the ring, and it could happen as soon as the upcoming draft.

McIntyre could quite easily be the top heel on either brand and in time, when confronted against forces like Brock Lesnar, could even turn babyface. McIntyre was originally touted to be the King of the Ring and the number 1 contender for the Universal Championship contender, according to reports, and his injuries, unfortunately, derailed plans.

If he were to make a return during the draft, the audience would go wild!
