Dwayne Johnson Hailed Drew McIntyre For His New WWE Deal
Drew McIntyre who held the World Heavyweight Championship for almost five minutes defeated Seth Rollins at WrestleMania only to be tarnished by Damian Priest’s Money in the Bank, recently signed a new deal with WWE. The Scottish Warrior has been one of the top superstars of the company in recent times and he has been in the storyline of several feuds including CM Punk and recently returned superstar, Sheamus.
In a recent post on X, the Board of Directors of TKO Holdings, Dwayne Johnson hailed McIntyre for the signing. “Man of my word,” he wrote on X, sharing a video of McIntyre. “As you’re a man of yours – Congratulations @DMcIntyreWWE on signing your new @wwe deal,” he added.
“As we talked about after your #WrestleMania match, I know this Scottish Claymore represents everything that you, your family and your country embody. Alba gu bràth [allegiance to Scotland].”
The Rock went on to add, “As you know, I wanted to personally hand deliver this gift to you at your meeting with Nick Khan, but I had warm cheat meals and chilled tequila waiting for me.”
“Congrats again brother and cheers to hunger, passion, climbing that mountain and always entertaining our fans.”
The video shows a sword, a gift from The Final Boss to the Scottish Warrior, after reading the envelope, McIntyre said, “Thank you, brother.”

In 2019, The Rock was asked who could be The Next Big Thing in WWE.
His answer was Drew McIntyre.
Kinda fitting that Rock was the one who announced that Drew re-signed with WWE last night reportedly for significant money.

It seems that WWE has a great storyline for McIntyre. After his recovery from the injuries, the superstar might go one-on-one with CM Punk as the duo has been rivals interrupting each other. But again, McIntyre going for the World Heavyweight Title or The Universal Title also could be on the card. But for now, WWE fans are overjoyed with the news.
