Former WWE World Champion to quit Monday Night RAW following huge defeat at Bad Blood? Potential clue explored
At WWE Bad Blood 2024, the CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre rivalry will reach a boiling point as they fight inside the Hell in a Cell to settle their issues once and for all. The Scottish Warrior and The Second City Saint have been at each other's throats ever since the former took credit for injuring and costing Punk the chance to main-event WrestleMania 40.
The feud could finally be settled inside the Satanic structure. The former WWE World Champion will look to put away Punk since he lost the strap match at SummerSlam 2024. However, he may still end up losing and then quit RAW the following night. His departure may stem from not being featured in the first RAW on Netflix poster.
WWE recently unveiled the poster for the first RAW on Netflix. Top stars like CM Punk, Jey Uso, and Rhea Ripley were featured, but McIntyre was nowhere to be seen despite being one of the show's top draws. To add a twist, WWE also snubbed him from the official Royal Rumble 2025 poster, to which McIntyre reacted savagely.
All these things might lead to him saying goodbye to the RAW roster after losing the match at WWE Bad Blood 2024. However, quitting the red brand doesn't mean he would be quitting the Stamford-based promotion altogether. He could always go to SmackDown to find new ground and perhaps settle his score with Roman Reigns.
While the idea of the 6'5" star quitting his current brand is intriguing, at this time, it's just conjecture. Fans will have to wait and watch.
McIntyre had quit WWE before Bad Blood earlier this year, but it was a facade to get to CM Punk
At the Clash at the Castle 2024 PLE, The Scottish Warrior fought Damian Priest for the title on RAW. He was on the brink of victory, but as he hit the Claymore to Priest, the referee got knocked out. It was a perfect moment for McIntyre to become champion. However, CM Punk showed up in a referee's outfit and hit a low blow to the former World Heavyweight champion.
It led to McIntyre losing the match, and on the following night on RAW, he walked out of WWE. However, that was part of a storyline as he wreaked havoc on Punk the same week on SmackDown. Now, they will once again go at it at Bad Blood, and it remains to be seen what will transpire at the event.
