#5. Vince McMahon is firmly behind Drew McIntyre to defeat Brock Lesnar
While Brock Lesnar may see it as bad news, Vince McMahon is backing the Drew McIntyre project and that should please the fans.
As reported by WrestlingNews.co's Paul Davis, Vince McMahon wants to push McIntyre as the next big face of the company.
The current plan is for the Scottish Psychopath to defeat Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania and to have a solid reign with the WWE Championship after the show. WWE has also reportedly lined up Seth Rollins as one of the title contenders for McIntyre after 'Mania.
McMahon feels McIntyre is a perfect company representative as he conducts himself like a top talent during interviews and media interactions. It was also revealed that McMahon and McIntyre share a very good relationship backstage.
A source had the following to say to Davis:
"Vince likes everything about him and thinks he represents the company well when he does media appearances. He looks good and talks well and that is what Vince is looking for. Drew has already established a relationship with Vince like most top guys do.”
It was also added that Vince McMahon is highly unlikely to change his mind when it comes to making McIntyre the new WWE Champion.
