Drew McIntyre and Sheamus were going to compete for The Usos’ Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship on SmackDown on November 9th. Then reports said the former WWE Champion suffered a ruptured eardrum after McIntyre revealed that he was not medically cleared to compete. Now it appears McIntyre is going to make a comeback to the company really soon.
In a pre-recorded video statement on WWE The Bump, McIntyre gave an update on his condition following a recent injury and said that his return to the ring isn’t far off. McIntyre stated that he doesn’t intend to miss the road to WrestleMania 39.
“I wish I could be there physically, sadly I can’t right now. I appreciate everybody checking in. You know, if Drew McIntyre’s not at work, there’s a reason.
“But I can tell you all I’ll be back very very soon. There’s a certain season on the horizon, WrestleMania season. And I’m not going to miss that.”
