Report: Update On Drew McIntyre's WWE Contract

Drew McIntyre’s WWE future has been up in the air in recent months following reports of his contract with the company coming up in and around the end of 2023 and the start of 2024. There has been some update on his future with the promotion though.

A report from PWInsider Elite has indicated that WWE and McIntyre will continue working together through WrestleMania 40 next year, providing some time to put pen to paper and nail down his future in the company. The report states;

“As it so happens, in asking WWE sources this week whether there had been any movement on signing McIntyre to a new deal, we were told that the company had been mostly focused on finalizing the Endeavor WWE acquisition so there hadn't been much, if any movement.  We were also told that the company had not rushed to lock McIntyre into a new deal as they had time to work on it, with one source noting that with McIntyre having taken time off earlier this year, there was additional time added to his contract. 

“PWInsiderElite.com is told that the company has McIntyre now locked in until around Wrestlemania 40, so that now gives the two sides in the area of seven months to finalize a new deal.”

Drew McIntyre took time off WWE following WrestleMania 39, returning at Money in the Bank to continue his feud with Gunther. Right now, he has joined up with Matt Riddle is another case of an “odd-couple” tag team.
