Drew McIntyres post-Royal Rumble frustration has been a hot topic backstage, but while his anger was initially directed at LA Knight, it turns out The Megastar isnt actually in trouble over the situation.
According to Bodyslam.net, LA Knight does not have any heat internally for the botched elimination spot involving McIntyre and Damian Priest during the Mens Royal Rumble match. Despite reports that McIntyre stormed out of the arena after the mishap, WWE officials arent blaming Knight for what went down.
McIntyres fury was sparked by what was described as an errant movement by LA Knight that threw off the planned sequence for his and Priests elimination. However, WWE sources have downplayed the situation, with some believing McIntyres reaction was more about his overall frustration with his creative direction rather than just the botch itself.
While McIntyre isnt happy about being slotted into a WrestleMania feud with Damian Priest, LA Knight appears to be in the clear. No punishment, no backstage dramajust business as usual.
With WrestleMania 41 on the horizon, all eyes are now on McIntyre to see how he moves forward. Will he accept WWEs creative plans, or is his frustration going to push him to demand a bigger spotlight? Let us know what you think!
