Drew McIntyre is still being advertised for WWE's Clash at the Castle Scotland event despite his contract's reported expiry date falling before the show.

Clash at the Castle takes place at Glasgow, Scotland's OVO Hydro on Saturday, 15 June. Earlier today, WWE dispatched an email to those who'd signed up for ticketing alerts for the show (26 April) featuring a list of wrestlers set to appear at Clash, including McIntyre.

The following are billed for 15 June:

Fightful Select reported on 15 April that Drew's WWE contract was originally set to expire before WrestleMania 40. Time was added to take McIntyre beyond the 6-7 April supershow, though even with the extension, the agreement was still set to elapse before June. If still valid, McIntyre won't be under contract for Clash at the Castle.

Beyond the Clash advertisement, McIntyre is currently building a feud with the injured CM Punk on WWE television. Punk interfered Drew's World Heavyweight Title contendership four-way on the Raw after WrestleMania, costing him the bout, one night after attacking McIntyre to facilitate Damian Priest's successful Money in the Bank cash-in on the Scot.
