The following trio of entries all star new WWE Champ and top heel Drew McIntyre. Rightly so. The Scot has been tearing it up lately, and it's a huge show of faith from Triple H that Drew is such a focal point to kick off WrestleMania season. Following Saturday's show, McIntyre has multiple major matches to look forward to.

One of them is surely a Triple Threat scenario vs. Cody Rhodes and Jacob Fatu. Drew did blast both of his enemies through tables to put a stop to their brawling ways, then he fired off a warning shot backstage with Cathy Kelley by making it clear anyone else coming after his belt would get the same treatment.

Angry Drew is the best.

Lord only knows when WWE run a Triple Threat, but this fan badly wants to see it after that fun-packed segment on Saturday in Canada. Of course, McIntyre also has Sami Zayn coming at him, but that's already confirmed for the Rumble. So, a match like Drew vs. Cody vs. Jacob would fit at Elimination Chamber or even on any episode of SmackDown heading into 'Mania 42.

Naturally, all of this depends on what happens in Saudi, but it'd be a real shame if the Triple Threat didn't happen now. Being honest, the writers could still get there even if McIntyre drops the title. There's enough meat on the bone and friction involving all 3 to make it worthwhile even if the belt if snuggled up in bed with a certain someone else...
