10 Reasons Why WWE Must Turn Drew McIntyre Heel Immediately
6. The Lack Of Heels On SmackDown
Take a look at the SmackDown roster and it’s not stuffed with inspiring heels. Yes, Roman Reigns is the biggest deal in the company right now and Sheamus is ever reliable, but beneath that?
Ridge Holland has potential but is yet to establish himself. Sami Zayn is booked as a midcard irritant rather than a credible threat for the most part. Baron Corbin deserves credit for his recent character work but remains a deeply boring b*stard between the ropes. Jinder Mahal is, well, Jinder Mahal.
SmackDown could badly use a fresh heel, throwing his weight around on Friday nights. But with the recent draft just now coming into effect it’s not like they can get someone new from Raw anytime soon. At times like this WWE must really wish they had someone like Karrion Kross or Keith “Bearcat” Lee on the books.
That’s okay. With his hulking frame and big power moves, an angry, freshly motivated Drew McIntyre fits the bill perfectly. After all, it’s not as if they’re gonna turn Jeff Hardy.
