Drew McIntyre secured his spot in the Elimination Chamber match by defeating LA Knight and Jimmy Uso on SmackDown. Before the match, McIntyre criticized Monday Night Raw and its management.
McIntyre called Raw a “toxic environment” and claimed Raw General Manager Adam Pearce “has no idea what he’s doing.” Following these remarks, Pearce responded on Twitter.
Typical @DMcIntyreWWE, flapping lips and storming out the door. He’ll be fun for a few Fridays, those same lips firmly flush on Aldis…until he doesn’t get his way or gets in his own way, both of which are also typical. Claymore? Nah. Cry more.
During this week’s Raw, Pearce marked his brand’s transfer window by announcing AJ Styles’ move to the red brand.
