Drew McIntyre isnt losing sleep over Roman Reigns and CM Punk taking shots at him but what they said about SmackDown and the title? Thats a different story. After the Raw following Royal Rumble saw Reigns choose CM Punk for WrestleMania and both men take verbal jabs at McIntyre, the Undisputed WWE Title, and SmackDown as a whole, McIntyre responded on SmackDown with a fired-up message to the locker room. Now, hes opening up about what actually got under his skin. Speaking on Busted Open Radio, McIntyre made it clear the personal shots didnt bother him but the disrespect toward SmackDown did. Instead, McIntyre pointed to how the comments made SmackDown and the championship feel secondary, especially coming from two of the biggest names in the company. That frustration is what led to his passionate promo on SmackDown, where he tried to rally the entire roster and send a message about pride in the brand. McIntyre didnt stop there, making it clear he expects everyone on SmackDown to step up and prove they belong while reminding them of the kind of locker room leadership he came up under. He also made it clear that while he may not be loud backstage, he wont hesitate to step in if standards arent being met. With WrestleMania season heating up, McIntyre is now waiting to find out his own path, as his opponent will be determined at Elimination Chamber. But one thing is clear hes putting the SmackDown locker room on notice. Do you think Drew McIntyre was right to call out the comments about SmackDown, or are Roman Reigns and CM Punk justified in their stance? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
