An update has emerged on Drew McIntyre following mounting suspicion about his status with WWE.
It has previously been reported that McIntyre’s contract is up this year and that he’s unhappy with his position in the company, with the former WWE champion also blacking out his Twitter account and removing WWE references from the bio.
McIntyre has been out of action since WrestleMania 39, reportedly to recover from injury issues.
After reporting that he’d remain out for another couple of weeks, Dave Meltzer has now provided another update on the Drew McIntyre situation on Wrestling Observer Radio, saying:
“He’s not gonna be back at TV next week, he’s not gonna be back for a couple more weeks.
“They announced the Madison Square Garden show which is in July, and he was not announced for that show either. But that’s not necessarily… I was just told it’s a couple more weeks. And we’ll see what happens from there.
“There is an injury, and there is a contract issue. Although the contract issue, his contract doesn’t come due for many, many months.
“But as far as signing a new deal, there’s nothing new. They’re still far apart.”
