Former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre has admitted that he has some unfinished business with Roman Reigns and looks forward to facing him in the Friday Night Smackdown. McIntyre was moved from the Monday Night Raw to Smackdown during the Round 2 of WWE Drafts 2021. While speaking to DAZN, he said that it would be great for him to get a fresh coat of paint, referring to the different brands, and revealed that he would be happy with the move.

In the conversation with DAZN, McIntyre was about his earlier comments about his unfinished business in Smackdown. Replying to the question, he said, “I have unfinished business in a lot of ways just from a career perspective and things not working out when I was a kid on SmackDown. But at the same time, there's unfinished business there with Roman 100 percent. In WWE, he's the final boss, and I'm excited when the time comes for that story. Maybe it's not right now. Perhaps it's the future. But when it happens, it's going to be big”.
