The feud between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre is one fans will never forget. Even though their rivalry officially ended, the tension and mockery between them might last until they both retire. Who knows? Through future storylines like The Bloodline, their feud could start again.
For now, their feud seems to have paused this year, with “The Scottish Warrior” having the last laugh because Sports Illustrated recently named McIntyre the best wrestling talker of the year.
The Punk vs. McIntyre rivalry was crowned ‘Rivalry of the Year’ at SI’s 2024 Pro Wrestling Awards, with WWE announcing it via an official YouTube video. During their feud, Punk claimed to be a better talker than Drew McIntyre, but the tables turned when Sports Illustrated awarded McIntyre the spot.

Drew McIntyre’s bold promise to destroy the Tribal Chief
On the latest episode of SmackDown, Solo Sikoa was engaged in a conversation about himself when the crowd interrupted him with a chorus of “What.” He promised to defeat Roman Reigns and become the true Tribal Chief. Just as Solo was speaking, Drew McIntyre interrupted.
Drew entered the ring to face Solo, unsure whether to attack him now or later. Drew had already attacked members of The Bloodline who were with Roman at Survivor Series: WarGames in 2024, specifically Sami Zayn, Jey Uso, and Jimmy Uso.
