Shocking home invasion, target set on oldest friend in WWE? - 3 things Drew McIntyre can do to extend revenge attack on CM Punk
WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre shocked the WWE Universe by perfectly executing a devious plan to take out CM Punk in front of his home crowd. The Scottish Warrior did not forgive Punk for costing him his title opportunity and a fairytale victory at Clash at the Castle in Scotland.
McIntyre "quit" on WWE RAW last week only to make a surprise return on SmackDown where he mercilessly assaulted the Best in the World. Punk was bruised and bloodied as McIntyre carried him on his shoulders from outside the arena to the ramp, where he dropped him.
WWE SmackDown General manager Nick Aldis was forced to make the former world champion walk away while Punk was stretchered out of the arena. McIntyre has been incredibly entertaining since turning heel but now his character has an added layer of menace, adding an edge to his viciousness.
Here, we look at three things Drew McIntyre can do to extend his revenge attack on CM Punk. So, without further ado, let's begin.
#1 Drew McIntyre crosses the line on WWE RAW
Drew McIntyre had the perfect plan for revenge against CM Punk in the latter's hometown of Chicago. The viciousness of his attack left the Best in the World with his face covered in blood while The Scottish Warrior stood over his rival for a moment of glory.
He is expected to appear on WWE RAW this week and address his feud with CM Punk, only this time with a lot more malice. Drew was spotted taking Punk's bracelet that had his wife's and dog's names on it. McIntyre could make things more personal by crossing the line and involving Punk's family when he cuts a promo on the red brand.
#2 Drew McIntyre invades CM Punk's home
Drew McIntyre could pull off a dangerous swerve in his ongoing feud with CM Punk by taking things beyond the ring. Punk took a bump during his beatwown on the blue brand, albeit once, and it hinted at the Best in the World nearing his in-ring return. Fans could see things rapidly escalate if McIntyre invades Punk's house while he is still injured.
This would allow The Scottish Warrior to draw nuclear heat while setting up their rivalry on course to an epic grudge match at WWE SummerSlam. It would also be a smart way to add to the rivalry between the two superstars to make their rivalry more serious without putting Punk at too much risk while he recovers from his injury.
#3 Drew McIntyre attacks Paul Heyman
One of the biggest moments on WWE SmackDown last week saw Paul Heyman reunite with CM Punk. The Wiseman of The Bloodline advised his old friend to leave the ring which ultimately brought him face to face with Solo Sikoa and his entourage. Although Punk left unscathed after Cody Rhodes backed him in the ring, Drew McIntyre still found a way to destroy the hometown hero on the show.
The Scottish Warrior could return on SmackDown and attack Paul Heyman to further hurt CM Punk while the latter prepares for his return. The Wiseman is not on the best terms with Solo Sikoa since the latter took over as the Tribal Chief. Fans could see Sikoa let McIntyre attack Heyman to fuel his rivalry with Punk while also potentially writing The Wiseman off WWE television for the time being.
