Give some credit to Drew McIntyre. He’s on Raw with one clear objective: Make fans boo him and cheer for Roman Reigns.

The Scottish Psychopath has been a thorn in the members of The Shield’s collective sides for a while now, and he’s managed to mostly have the upper hand in this feud. But in doing so, he began addressing Reigns’ personal life and battle with leukemia, drawing his family into things.

That brought Roman out to accept Drew’s WrestleMania challenge, and then go on the offensive, much to the fans’ delight. Unfortunately, McIntyre is willing to stoop to any level, so he hit a low blow and Claymore to drop Reigns and really soak in the boos.

All of this predictably is leading to Reigns’ successful return to singles action at WM, where he hopefully will get revenge and topple McIntyre in a hard-fought contest. And this time, Roman will be cheered at WrestleMania.
