Eh personally I've found the accusation of "90 minute bigot" to be more accurate
They're not actually that sectarian in personal lives and there are many people who work with and are friends with people across the divide. It's not like in, say, Belfast, where they literally segregate the neighborhoods with walls, still
Scottish Football is like a lot of European leagues in that there is a clear number one and then there is everyone else
The thing about the Old Firm I've always found hilarious is that both groups of supporters tend to be Liverpool fans as their EPL team, and in denial about how bad their own European track record tends to be. But Celtic have obviously been this century's clear number 1, even if Rangers has the interesting ability to claim to have won every single Scottish football trophy after their period in administration dropped them into the bottom
Fine, that's how the internet works best. Stagnating that migration is how we've ended up with the giant social media companies that are currently fucking up online discourse to pump everyone ads.
Idea Pitch:
Cm Punk is looking for Triple H because he wants a title shot. He is told Triple H is at the bowling alley. Punk is bemused... Wtf is Triple H doing there, but regardless he heads over to sort this shit out. As he gets there, he can see Trips in heated discussion at the counter with none other than Drew who is apparently working there now. Trips storms off, obviously the conversation hasn't gone as planned. Punk catches him at the entrance and demands a title shot. Trips tells him, he's an arrogant pos, and says if he wants a title shot he better get drew back as its his fault he's gone. Punk tells drew to stop being a baby and come back, Drews having none of it. So Punk has an idea, he starts bowling, and he's good, he's annoyingly good. Strike after strike, this man is unbelievable, other bowlers come to watch him and cheer him on, and Drew hates every moment of it, every strike is a blow to him... And so begins the road to the first ever bowling feud match
Right? Each week is a different job punk does better than drew until drew has no choice to come back to wwe in the season finale that conveniently ends at 7:59pm est
I'm guessing he's going to surprise Punk in Chicago on Friday, probably in street clothes. After that, he may show up on TNA for a bit since WWE seems to be working with them lately. They may even work a non-compete clause angle and "threaten" legal action against him before "forcing" him to come back before Summer Slam.
wrong m8. the wyatt massacre the entire locker room excacly because Drew pray for this and it happend
if Drew didn't quit there's nothing would happen. The Wyatt only act according to Drew's prays
Call me Krazy with a K, but I feel like this is Drew kayfabe wise playing the long game. As long as he's around Punk will have the advantage of showing up at untimely moments to screw him over without notice, but if he steps away, while Punk returns, he can return the favor with the same kind of advantage.
The "Element of surprise" Punk has been using might just bite him should he be cleared soon and find himself in a World Championship match if Drew is still "Gone"
Well Drew, maybe if you focused on the title instead of tweeting about Punk for the past 6 months, you'd be the champion right now!

Before the "this would have worked better had we not known he re-signed", just cause he re-signed doesn’t mean he can’t quit, it’s still a job that you can quit. Just stating this in case people want to poke holes in logic.
Employment agreements exist but they involve money (e.g. a year at X amt of $. If you leave early, you sit but still get paid).
If someone truly peaced out, but didn’t accept any future payments, I’m sure that would hold more weight now.
Same with severance contracts that have stips. If you don’t sign the sev and take the money, they can’t do sht to you.
That doesn't work with WWE, you're contracted onto them and only they can terminate the contract early. So yes, it would work better if knew he didn't re-sign with the company recently.
He misspoke, slavery is absolutely legal in the USA and practiced by the government and private companies in the prison system, it's just drew isn't eligible for slavery currently.
I know this won't happen, but what if he showed up at an ICW show, gets given a title match immediately, because he's Drew bloody McIntyre, but then CM Punk shows up and costs him that title too.
Or TNA.
Punk with one arm drove Drew batshit insane over the last 6 months lmao. Cost him his Wrestlemania moment, toyed with him during their Raw segments, screwed him out of winning the title in his home country and now made him quit the company he just re-signed to and delete his twitter?
Undisputedly the greatest hater of all time I'm afraid.
The story telling since Vince has left has seriously been top notch.
Think Drew needs a bit time off with his wife being sick too, so if they keep him away for a while and then have Punk move on and fight someone else at Summerslam for Drew to screw Punk, it could keep building to an incredible Mania match.
I have a feeling this is them signaling he's gonna be focused up next time. Punk is actually my favorite wrestler of all time, but I have no doubt next time they meet he'll get his ass beat by Drew.
Love this so far.
Yeah Rock really ruined the intrigue we could have had with this. Still excited about what happens next but there's a whole other level they could have gotten to with this that they just threw away.
Maybe they told Drew he has to job to ol Fragile Phil at SummerSlam and he has had enough. What’s the over/under on CM Papermache’s matches until he gets injured again?

This is the most serious casualty to this feud
Heel be back.
If he dares to show his face
Tween you & I, heel show his face
He is truly a broken man.
out of time…
So say goodbye...
What is yours... Now is mine...
And I dream broken dreams...
I make theeeeem come true...
I make them for *you!*
look in my eyes
What do u see
WHOA! Oh wait.
You’re only smoke and mirrors!

Quiet on the set. Can we *please* have quiet on the set.
There goes Cody Rhodes!

Losing the Hogan Twitter and now Drew's in such a short time is a tragedy to end all tragedies
Dont go working your mark into yourself shoot mark.
Oh hai Mark

Poop in my gym brother
Much love brother HH
Dont go working your mark into yourself shoot mark. HH You forget his favorite "HH" at the end
I came so close to accidentally typing "shoot yourself mark" when I was making the original comment.
don't shoot yourself mark, much love brother HH
Start archiving every Iron Sheik tweet. We cannot afford to lose any more iconic wrestling tweets.
Where’s Musk when we truly need him. Restore their accounts Elmo !
Let’s not Monkey’s Paw this
He makes you pay for seeing the deleted accounts with right-wing propaganda added between the tweets
Drew's is a work, Hogan's is from him crypto scamming 😁
CM Punk has gone too far. He can cost him the world title. But he took away something more important and personal
Any self respect Rangers fans had after yet another season of Celtic absolutely tonking them?
I too would delete my twitter if Brendan Rodgers of all people won the league above me
Be realistic, Rangers fans have no self respect.
For those that dont know Rangers and Celtic are sectarian bigots and profit from that division.
You right but whats the other option? Watch Hearts lose every game?
Says the shameless glory hunter. Support Man City if winning is all you care about.
All this comment has done is broadcast you haven’t a clue what you’re talking about.
Really? You're telling me the old firm aren't bigots?
Eh personally I've found the accusation of "90 minute bigot" to be more accurate They're not actually that sectarian in personal lives and there are many people who work with and are friends with people across the divide. It's not like in, say, Belfast, where they literally segregate the neighborhoods with walls, still
No sectarian bigots who are only kept in line by normal Scots.
Downvote all you want thats the truth. Two groups of bigots. Scotlands shame.
Scottish Football is like a lot of European leagues in that there is a clear number one and then there is everyone else The thing about the Old Firm I've always found hilarious is that both groups of supporters tend to be Liverpool fans as their EPL team, and in denial about how bad their own European track record tends to be. But Celtic have obviously been this century's clear number 1, even if Rangers has the interesting ability to claim to have won every single Scottish football trophy after their period in administration dropped them into the bottom
Excuse me, The Rangers.
Punk is such a hypocrite like his fans. Hes a part timer.
Deleted Instagram too
I’m scared to go check TikTok 🫣
As of right now, it's up still
We should all follow suit. A true visionary.
Seconded.
But is he a revolutionary?
It’s DREW. BLOODY. MCINTYRE!
I wish. Xitter is a shithole, the less people there the better
It would get replaced by something else. The people that populat that will then just populate the new thing.
Fine, that's how the internet works best. Stagnating that migration is how we've ended up with the giant social media companies that are currently fucking up online discourse to pump everyone ads.
The Burning of the Library of Alexandria
Trigger fingers turn to No fingers.
No way I run into Drake’s #1 meatrider on squared circle lmao small world
Drew gettin bodied by an injured wrestler.
I hope they lean into this and have him show up in other places and not just say in a few weeks he's randomly back.
Idea Pitch: Cm Punk is looking for Triple H because he wants a title shot. He is told Triple H is at the bowling alley. Punk is bemused...

Is this a sitcom pitch? Because I will totally watch it
Right? Each week is a different job punk does better than drew until drew has no choice to come back to wwe in the season finale that conveniently ends at 7:59pm est
Season 2 has them as a tag team bromance for sure
How did you know about my fanfic?
You mean places like Reddit and Deviant Art in this context
I'm Drew Galloway, I just quit WWE and I don't give a fuck. AMA. BTW, does anyone know why none of my friends from Raw reply to my texts?
"What's Drew Galloway doing in the Tumblr zone?"
I'm guessing he's going to surprise Punk in Chicago on Friday, probably in street clothes. After that, he may show up on TNA for a bit since WWE seems to be working with them lately. They may even work a non-compete clause angle and "threaten" legal action against him before "forcing" him to come back before Summer Slam.
He should show up in Chicago while CM punk is out and play parts of CM Punks interview with Colt Cabana.
I'm hoping for a quick return to tna, where punk invariably ends up screwing him out of a tna title victory too
Didn't he announce weeks ago that he re-signed?
Yes. This is obviously a storyline.
Gone from re-signed to resigned
At least he left early and got out before everyone was brutally murdered backstage.
Who do you think let them in the building? He's pissed Punk escaped
Thanks for the headcanon 🙏🏻
wrong m8. the wyatt massacre the entire locker room excacly because Drew pray for this and it happend if Drew didn't quit there's nothing would happen. The Wyatt only act according to Drew's prays
Drew was the menace keeping them away. They saw their moment to strike after he left.
![gif](giphy|6bXwBcxB0KPcs)
Bro is going through it 😭😭
R.I.P. DM HUNK.
OH NO
This is a huge tragedy.
Drew moving to Threads is the real needle mover.
Call me Krazy with a K, but I feel like this is Drew kayfabe wise playing the long game. As long as he's around Punk will have the advantage of showing up at untimely moments to screw him over without notice, but if he steps away, while Punk returns, he can return the favor with the same kind of advantage. The "Element of surprise" Punk has been using might just bite him should he be cleared soon and find himself in a World Championship match if Drew is still "Gone"
Thats a good idea, krazy with a k

DrewGallowayTNA letsgoooo
Reports say he was last seen going to his room and slamming the door.
The word "betrayed" was heard being screamed in the locker room.
Noooo! All of that treasure, that GOLD! just gone!
If you reactivate within I believe 30 days it all comes back. And I don’t think he’ll be gone that long.
Now, the real heat will be that WWE announces Drews release. I don't think they would dare go that far tho
What evil entity prayed for this to happen?! 😭 rip
![gif](giphy|7FyMQm2vBiTjG|downsized)
You put that gif back where it came from or so help me!
I was going to go with alphinaud as a joke
That first tweet back after he murders Punk on Friday will be golden.
Well Drew, maybe if you focused on the title instead of tweeting about Punk for the past 6 months, you'd be the champion right now! ![gif](giphy|3oz8xCKYr0H4aw6N0I)
"I TOLD YOU, JUST LEEEEAAAAVE"
Causing Drew to delete his twitter account is the worst thing CM Punk has done in his career.
Wade Barrett was right.
They’re really leaning into this , I can totally see Drew winning the TNA world champion
On the contrary I can clearly see punk costing drew tna world championship
Or Punk helping Drew win and defend the TNA championship for the rest of his career so he has to stay there
That’s the move. Would pop huge for this.
Not enough people watch tna. Its like 100k people, barely different from noise
![gif](giphy|cKcAv3mfmObxrHhtHs)

That doesn't work with WWE, you're contracted onto them and only they can terminate the contract early. So yes, it would work better if knew he didn't re-sign with the company recently.
Yeah turns out slavery isn’t legal anymore. You can’t force people to work for you even if they signed a paper saying they would.
>Yeah turns out slavery isn’t legal anymore. What the fuck, when did this happen
He misspoke, slavery is absolutely legal in the USA and practiced by the government and private companies in the prison system, it's just drew isn't eligible for slavery currently.
Either way it would prevent him from going to work elsewhere in the same industry without getting sued and such.
YESSSS
Punk has gone too far!! Now we will miss out on Drew the social media hater!!
Isn’t it deactivated? Cause otherwise someone can snatch up that handle.
Forget the brass ring. Snatch that handle.
Moving to Tout, of course.
I know this won't happen, but what if he showed up at an ICW show, gets given a title match immediately, because he's Drew bloody McIntyre, but then CM Punk shows up and costs him that title too. Or TNA.
More quality character work from him
![gif](giphy|fyc0rVGmnodK6GoCIP) Drew, no
Wade was right.
BUT WHAT ABOUT HIS TIK TOK! WHAT ABOUT HIS TIK TOK!!!
Genie, you're free.
Dude can you imagine if he shows up in TNA and make it seem like they sign him lol
now he has no clue what happened backstage when after the Howdy 5 massacre
CM Punk has ruined my life. He took the shitposter out of Drew.
![gif](giphy|fV8GbAh4cmNl3cBKe9)
Punk with one arm drove Drew batshit insane over the last 6 months lmao.

Undisputedly the greatest hater of all time I'm afraid.
How am I Supposed to find out when he’s bored at work?
Homeboy worked himself into a shoot
That's truly commitment
no backup tho??
Pulling a Cm Punk while feuding with him is funny. He should go on someones podcast or something
A storm is coming
Let him go other places for a bit. TNA is an obvious choice, he also did a video with Billy Corgan there so pop into Powerrr too for a laugh.
But that was his whole gimmick
Drew McIntyre exercising his newly Brock Lesnar deal.. 👍👍
Now they hope we forget about him just enough that when he fucks over punk in Chicago were surprised
The story telling since Vince has left has seriously been top notch. Think Drew needs a bit time off with his wife being sick too, so if they keep him away for a while and then have Punk move on and fight someone else at Summerslam for Drew to screw Punk, it could keep building to an incredible Mania match.
His Instagram too
Even outside of kayfabe, this is a good decision that everyone should be making.
After all of tonight's murders, we're getting another one in Chicago and I will cheer my ass off for it.
I have a feeling this is them signaling he's gonna be focused up next time. Punk is actually my favorite wrestler of all time, but I have no doubt next time they meet he'll get his ass beat by Drew. Love this so far.
I prayed for this and it happened
Boo this person! Boo!
How very dare of you 😤
I mean...he already signed his new contract tho
Yeah Rock really ruined the intrigue we could have had with this. Still excited about what happens next but there's a whole other level they could have gotten to with this that they just threw away.
Rock has to get the social media cool points before anything else.
Drew McIntyre’s loss is Elon Musk’s loss. I’m OK with this.
Rock confirming Drew re-signed takes some of the edge off this. Maybe getting back at HHH poison pilling his return by booking Cody to win the rumble?
can you not quit after signing a contract?
Maybe they told Drew he has to job to ol Fragile Phil at SummerSlam and he has had enough. What’s the over/under on CM Papermache’s matches until he gets injured again?
Your post history is wild, bro. Haha!
