Drew McIntyre has had enough of CM Punk and has taken a shot back at his rival in unique style.
‘The Scottish Warrior’ is losing his cool after consistently being at the end of multiple scathing promos from CM Punk. McIntyre left this week’s Raw early but ‘The Second City Savior’ made a surprise appearance on the show a few moments later. He soon seized the opportunity to take jabs at the Scottish wrestler.
Drew McIntyre did not return to the show. However, he noted CM Punk’s comments on him. Taking to his X account, the former WWE Champion took a shot back at Punk by setting the latter’s autographed photo ablaze and throwing the ashes on the ground. This is the same photograph that McIntyre acquired last week on Raw.

Drew McIntyre was originally scheduled to face The Judgment Day’s Finn Balor in the King of The Ring tournament’s first round. But, ‘The Scottish Warrior’, who injured his elbow at WrestleMania 40, was not medically cleared to compete. Raw GM Adam Pearce announced that his replacement would be Jey Uso, who went on to qualify for the next round.
CM Punk-Drew McIntyre rivalry
The Chicago legend has been getting under the skin of McIntyre since WrestleMania 40 where he cost Drew McIntyre the World title as Damian Priest cashed in his Money In The Bank contract. The feud between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre is now intensifying every passing week. ‘The Scottish Warrior’ and ‘The Second City Savior’ have had several verbal exchanges in the past and they don’t seem to stop anytime soon.
Punk has shown impressive recovery after undergoing tricep surgery but he is yet to be medically cleared. Both Punk and McIntyre are currently injured and it seems we will have to wait a little longer to witness them settle the matter in the ring.
