It looks like Drew McIntyre isn’t holding back his feelings after WWE left him off the official poster for next year’s Royal Rumble premium live event. The 2025 Royal Rumble is going down at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana, on February 1, and WWE just dropped the first look at the official poster.

The star-studded lineup features some of WWE’s biggest names, including Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, and Liv Morgan. But the glaring absence of Drew McIntyre on the poster is something the Scottish Warrior couldn’t help but call out.

Taking to social media, McIntyre responded with a snarky remark about being sent to Indianapolis to promote the event but not making the final cut for the poster. “Hey let’s send Drew to Indy to promote the Rumble!” McIntyre tweeted. “Good call! Shall we put him on the poster? Na.”

Though snubbed from the poster, McIntyre is far from sidelined. He’s set to face CM Punk inside Hell in a Cell at WWE Bad Blood this weekend in Atlanta, Georgia—a match that’s been hyped as one of the most brutal encounters in WWE this year.

It’s clear McIntyre isn’t letting the poster snub get him down as he gears up for what could be a career-defining showdown with Punk at Bad Blood. However, fans can’t help but wonder: Will this spark a redemption storyline for Drew heading into WrestleMania season? Only time will tell.
