Drew McIntyre recently expressed his discontent with the Money in the Bank contract in WWE. Despite securing a new contract with the organization and clinching the World Heavyweight Championship at WWE WrestleMania by defeating Seth Rollins, McIntyre revealed that his feud with CM Punk held more significance for him. The situation took a turn for the worse when Punk, being taunted by McIntyre, retaliated by attacking him, leading to Damian Priest taking advantage of the chaos. In an interview with The Indian Express, McIntyre candidly stated his disdain for the Money in the Bank briefcase, attributing it to causing the premature end of two of his world title reigns.

The upcoming Clash at the Castle event will witness Damian Priest defending his World Heavyweight Championship against Drew McIntyre. McIntyre has issued a warning to CM Punk, suggesting that Punk might face backlash from Scottish fans if he appears at the event. Former WWE star EC3 shared his predictions on the outcome of the match, expressing his belief that McIntyre deserves to reclaim the title. EC3, emphasizing McIntyre’s exceptional talent and character, highlighted the lack of a significant moment for McIntyre in front of a live audience, pointing out past matches that did not garner the desired reaction.
Amidst the verbal sparring, Drew McIntyre has taken jabs at Damian Priest, labeling him a “transitional champion.” The anticipation builds as fans await the showdown between McIntyre and Priest at WWE Clash at the Castle on June 15. As McIntyre strives to regain the title and solidify his position as a top contender in WWE, the wrestling world buzzes with excitement over the potential outcome of this high-stakes matchup.
