Drew McIntyre could face CM Punk at SummerSlam 2024

Money in the Bank 2024 showcased exhilarating bouts, leaving fans captivated by each match's outcomes. While the overall spectacle was spectacular, it diverged from some fans' expectations. One particular match concluded dramatically, potentially setting the stage for a SummerSlam showdown. Reports indicate WWE is considering booking a match between Drew McIntyre and CM Punk, promising an eagerly anticipated bout.Here are intriguing details about this highly anticipated matchup.

Industry insider Dave Meltzer suggested that a match between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre might happen at SummerSlam on August 3. WrestleTalk tweeted the following about Meltzer's statement:
“Right now, it is not one hundred percent as far as (CM) Punk vs Drew (McIntyre) at SummerSlam, but I was told that it is probable. “I was pretty much told that they’re pretty confident in it but they can’t go and say one hundred percent because it isn’t one hundred percent, but it’s been the hope, but it’s now more than a hope, now it’s a plan.”
CM Punk has now intervened three times to thwart Drew McIntyre's pursuit of the World Title. His interference led to Damian Priest defeating Drew at Wrestlemania 40, Clash at the Castle, and most recently at Money in the Bank. Despite these setbacks, Drew emerged victorious in the men's Money in the Bank ladder match and promptly fulfilled his promise to cash in the briefcase that very night, turning the scheduled World Title match between Seth Rollins into a triple-threat encounter.

As the match intensified and Drew unleashed his best efforts, executing a Future Shock DDT on Seth Rollins, CM Punk stormed the ring and attacked Drew with a flurry of strikes. Taking the fight outside, CM Punk ruthlessly assaulted Drew using a steel chair and the World Title belt. Seizing the opportunity, Damian Priest capitalized and retained his title by pinning Drew once again, further fueling Drew's fury, evident in his backstage outburst.
The escalating tension between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre, stemming from their rivalry since the Royal Rumble 2024 where Drew's Future Shock DDT injured Punk's tricep, points toward a potential showdown at SummerSlam 2024. If CM Punk recovers from his injury, fans may witness an epic clash between these two at the upcoming event.
