Drew McIntyre Suspended Indefinitely amid CM Punk Feud After WWE Money in the Bank

Drew McIntyre’s actions during the Money in the Bank post-show on Saturday night resulted in a suspension.

Raw general manager Adam Pearce announced on X that McIntyre has been indefinitely suspended.

McIntyre won the men’s Money in the Bank match earlier in the night and cashed in his briefcase during the Damian Priest-Seth Rollins bout. CM Punk wound up getting involved, costing the Scottish Warrior the title for the third time since WrestleMania.

During the post-show, McIntyre crashed the set and shoved multiple officials before elbowing Pearce in the head.

The feud between McIntyre and Punk has been going on since the Royal Rumble when McIntyre took credit for the legit injury suffered by the Best in the World.

McIntyre has continued to make fun of Punk in his promos for several months. Punk has been able to get revenge by preventing his adversary from winning the world title.

The first time Punk screwed McIntyre was at WrestleMania. McIntyre did technically beat Seth Rollins to win the title, but his reign only lasted a few minutes because he got in Punk’s face at the announce desk. Punk beat him up using his arm brace, allowing Priest to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase to steal the championship.

In a rematch between Priest and McIntyre at Clash at the Castle: Scotland on June 15, Punk came to the ring dressed as a referee and stopped his count at two before delivering a low blow to McIntyre.

Punk’s attack at Money in the Bank came two weeks after he was taken out by McIntyre in a backstage ambush on Friday Night SmackDown in Chicago on June 21.

Punk’s actions at Money in the Bank added a new wrinkle to the feud because Rollins was also screwed out of the title and made it known he was unhappy Punk interfered.

It’s still unclear if Punk has been medically cleared to wrestle after undergoing triceps surgery in February. If he has—or will within the next few weeks—the long-awaited match between Punk and McIntyre could be set for SummerSlam on Aug. 3.

Of course, this assumes McIntyre’s suspension will be lifted by that point. He did quit on the June 17 episode of Raw and was back four days later on SmackDown to unleash his attack on Punk, so it’s a safe bet he will be reinstated within the next four weeks.
