Drew McIntyre is back.
Drew McIntyre made his return on the July 4th episode of WWE SmackDown. McIntyre interrupted Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton, who were discussing their WWE Night of Champions bout and Cody winning King of the Ring by defeating Orton.
McIntyre wondered when Beta Male energy took over WWE and said the Alpha has returned. McIntyre questioned what happened to Orton and his ability to strike without hesitation. He said he wanted Cody to win the Undisputed WWE Title from John Cena at WWE SummerSlam because he wanted to take the title from him.
McIntyre said he wouldn't hesitate, unlike somebody, and received an RKO from Orton for his troubles.
