It’ll be an easy night at the office for Drew McIntyre when he faces Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 40: Sunday, especially considering the events of the Saturday show.
At WWE WrestleMania 40: Saturday, Rollins teamed with Cody Rhodes in a losing effort to The Rock & Roman Reigns. This match means that the upcoming Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match between Rhodes and Reigns will be under ‘Bloodline Rules,’ meaning that anything goes.
One person who was watching the main event closely was Drew McIntyre who on Twitter boasted that the match went exactly as he predicted. McIntyre, wearing a CM Punk hoodie, said that Rollins is walking into an “execution” and said that he’s ready to take the World Heavyweight Championship from the attention “junkie.” McIntyre was similarly confident in the tweet for his video, declaring that the upcoming title match would be the “easiest payday” of his career.

A Wounded Champion
McIntyre can hardly be blamed for feeling confident heading into WrestleMania 40: Sunday. During the tag-team main event, Rollins was seen favoring his knee which seems to have been injured during the match. Rollins’ back was also a target during the match with The Rock locking in the Sharpshooter on the World Heavyweight Champion.
Rollins’ work as a fighting champion has resulted in the Architect piling up injuries that could prove to be the difference maker at WWE WrestleMania 40: Sunday. Rollins injured back was a pivotal part of his 2023 feud with Shinsuke Nakamura but Rollins retained against his fellow former NXT Champion.
