WWE announcing that Clash At The Castle II will come to Glasgow, Scotland this June ahead of 'Mania surely gives the game away on their plans. Home country hero Drew McIntyre strutting into The Hydro on PLE with the World Heavyweight Title is a lay up for Triple H, and the boss definitely knows it.

Seth Rollins, your reign is coming to an end. Thanks for holding that belt with distinction, sir.

It's unreal how things pan out when you stop to think about it. CM Punk was being lined up to supplant Rollins at 'Mania, but his injury forced a change of plans. Thankfully, Seth's injury didn't rule him out too, which means Drew can beat the champ without running some sort of bullsh*t "Interim Champ" nonsense (looking at you, AEW!).

In storyline, Drew has been reinvigorated as a heel. In reality, the Scot craves winning a World Title in front of actual fans. This title run would be special to him personally, and he must get to finally live it by hitting a Claymore Kick that puts Rollins down for good.
