Triple H Claims Drew McIntyre Was Injured Since WrestleMania, Is Unaware Of Any Other Problems

Drew McIntyre made his explosive return to WWE on Saturday, surprising everyone by showing up to confront Gunther after the Intercontinental Champion defeated Matt Riddle at Money In The Bank.

After the show, speaking at the Money in the Bank post-show press conference, Triple H addressed McIntyre’s absence.

“It’s also a funny thing, the amount of speculation that happens around things. I read stuff all the time that’s printed and put out there. ‘Sources say.’ 75% of it is completely off base. If Drew had an issue, it’s news to me. He was out with an injury and getting stuff fixed. While he was out, he had something else to get fixed so we did it, and here he is. He’s an amazing performer. He is one of the highlight superstars in this era. Thrilled to have him back and hopefully, he’s here for the rest of his career,”

McIntyre had been out of action since WrestleMania, when he challenged Gunther in a triple threat match for the Intercontinental Championship that also featured Sheamus.
