Drew McIntyre takes the microphone before the next match to announce that he is officially back on the SmackDown roster. The Scotsman reveals that last weekend he was furious after being eliminated from the Royal Rumble, but the next day, he had a moment of clarity when he looked in the mirror. He realized that he was so handsome, and that’s why he shouldn’t be upset. But he says that his poor results were perhaps related to a toxic environment on RAW, with Adam Pearce. For that reason, Drew picked up the phone to talk to Nick Aldis, who told him that he could finally be himself upon his return to the blue brand.
The Scotsman is aiming directly at Cody Rhodes , though more specifically, at the WWE Championship that was stolen from him. Jimmy Uso interrupts Drew because he’s standing here like he doesn’t have to fight to earn opportunities, unlike him, who is here, ready to fight. McIntyre mistakes Jimmy for Jey, as he still can’t tell them apart after all this time, and maybe he’d be in a better position now if he’d said ‘YEET!’ first. Jimmy wants to remind Drew that he’s ‘Big Jim,’ and if he wants to, he can say ‘YEET!’, and also ‘NO YEET!’, and he’ll have the crowd’s backing. And he’s living in the present, where he’ll kick Drew’s ass to go to WrestleMania. L.A. Knight closes out, tired of hearing Drew cry, declaring himself ready to compete next.
