"I'll shove that hourglass up your arse!".

Those were the words of one Drew McIntyre to Karrion Kross during Saturday's main event. McIntyre was the only one involved who directed any verbal abuse at Kross, which is worth pointing out; Roman Reigns barely even acknowledged (ahem) the recent returnee, and that should tell fans who's about to feud with who.

Karrion's promos have even depicted Drew as a gatekeeper of sorts for title shots on SmackDown. That's the direction WWE fancies going in despite the fact McIntyre isn't even the current champ, but few will mind so long as scraps between the pair hit some decent in-ring heights.

Kross proved on NXT he can match intensity with just about anybody, and that'll suit Drew. The big Scot's fire and passion is well-known, so expect fireworks when these boys lock horns at Extreme Rules or...whenever Trips wants to plonk them inside a pro wrestling ring on TV.
