10 Wrestlers At Risk Of Missing Out On The WWE WrestleMania 39 Card

3. Drew McIntyre & Sheamus

Admittedly, this is jumping the gun just a little (and it'd technically be "11 Wrestlers At Risk...").

The erm..."Banger Bros" combo of Drew McIntyre and Sheamus has been earmarked for a three-way Intercontinental Title bout vs. GUNTHER for a while now, but WWE hasn't announced anything official. Of course, they could do on the next episode of SmackDown after Chamber.

That's the pair's only feasible path towards 'Mania glory. They've impressed as a tag team, but KO and babyface supremo Sami Zayn have that match with The Usos all-but-sewn up, and it'd suck hard if WWE crudely inserted Drew and Sheamus just to keep them busy/from chopping GUNTHER into dust.

Nah, it's GUNTHER or nothing for them. In fact, as McIntyre's fellow Scots might opine, "it's GUNTHER or bolt" come April's super-event. No-one watching would turn their noses up at more physicality between Sheamus and the IC Champ, and layering Drew on top of that sounds like a workhorses' wet dream.
