When you’re feuding with a part-time champion who’s rarely on TV, it’s tough to keep that rivalry going. You’ve got to make due with whatever you have at your disposal.

In Drew McIntyre’s case, that meant a two-week mini-feud with MVP, a former friend who doubted his ability to topple Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania and offered his services as Drew’s mouthpiece/agent. McIntyre declined those services by Claymore kicking him last week, which led to Paul Heyman recruiting him to face Drew Monday night.

It didn’t go any better for MVP this week, as McIntyre quickly kicked him back into retirement, but not before ripping his Breathe Right nasal strip off his nose in a cute touch.
