It’s almost like Drew McIntyre has someone on payroll behind his ventures on social media with the kind of digs he’s aiming for. A few hours ago on X, the 37-year-old dragged four Superstars for that matter, including CM Punk. But apart from the latter, McIntyre brutally trolled Jey Uso, a record-breaking tag team champion in his own right, over the limited amount of artillery he has.
Looking back on when their beef peaked a while ago, Drew said Jey had to use more than a couple of moves to fight against the Scot. That was some shot from McIntyre, who pushed Uso under the bus for being devoid of an eclectic gamut of maneuvers in his repertoire. The Chosen One then got to CM Punk and called him out for being washed, though he pretends he’s not, claimed the former.
Before Drew McIntyre made Jey catch a stray and his usual tantrums about Punk, the Iyre-born wrestler inconspicuously gave Seth Rollins his flowers. The self-proclaimed DM Hunk argued that The Visionary took himself beyond his limits against McIntyre. And at last, the latter sort of commended Damian Priest for the resounding promo that he had against him on this week’s Raw.
Seth Rollins – took himself beyond the limit against me

Jey Uso – Had to use more than 2 moves against me
CM Punk – Is showing he ain’t washed (he is) against me
Damian Priest – Finally proved he has some chops… against me
I’m the one setting the bar on Raw. I’m bringing…
Seth Rollins - took himself beyond the limit against me Jey Uso - Had to use more than 2 moves against me CM Punk - Is showing he ain’t washed (he is) against me Damian Priest - Finally proved he has some chops… against me I’m the one setting the bar on Raw. I’m bringing out the best in others. The Champion without my championship. Stop me when I’m telling lies. Drew McIntyre on X
When he was done calling out everyone, the former 2-time WWE Champion asked the fans to stop him when he’s telling lies. In all fairness, the netizens on X were specifically blown away by how adroitly Drew mocked “Main Event” Jey. The Yeet Master did catch some flak after he breezed past recent NXT call-up Ilja Dragunov this past Monday. Uso will not face Gunther in the semifinals of the King of the Rings tournament.
CM Punk is significantly close to plot his in-ring return
As the fans must’ve noticed through his recent TV appearances, CM Punk looks fit as a fiddle. Back in January, he underwent successful surgery for torn triceps and was believed to be out for 6–7 months.
However, as per Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, The Second City Saint is close to making his in-ring return. And once he’s back, ready to throw the kitchen sink at Drew McIntyre, there’s no stopping the Chicagoan.
CM Punk will be back "fairly soon":

“Punk’s not that far from being back most likely. If he had his surgery at the end of January, you’re looking at the end of July, August, maybe September. It’s not that far away anymore. He might make SummerSlam. And if he can make SummerSlam,… pic.twitter.com/ncC3lQmOs9
The 45-year-old has already vowed to break Drew’s face, no matter if that means traveling all the way to Scotland. McIntyre himself is currently nursing a hyperextended elbow, which shouldn’t bother him for long. The two men are almost ready to break the shackles, and the fans couldn’t be more happy.
