Drew McIntyre had plenty to say about John Cena ahead of the Elimination Chamber—but now, he’s suddenly backtracking. Over the last three days, McIntyre quietly deleted the Twitter video where he went off on Cena, calling out his part-time schedule and questioning whether his “values” were real or just a way to sell merchandise.
Fans immediately noticed the deleted post, leading to speculation about why McIntyre would scrub his rant. In the now-removed video, McIntyre didn’t hold back, reminding everyone that Cena gave the Elimination Chamber participants an open invitation to call him out—but no one did, except for CM Punk. McIntyre took that opportunity to unload on Cena, taking shots at his rare WWE appearances and accusing him of compromising everything he once stood for just to insert himself into the Chamber match.
McIntyre even mocked Cena’s reasoning for being in the match, sarcastically suggesting that, by his logic, Sydney Sweeney should be thrown into the Chamber to make it even bigger. He made it clear that his grudge with Cena wasn’t new—it had been simmering for years.
So what changed? Did McIntyre delete the video because he regretted the comments, or was he told to take it down? Cena hasn’t responded publicly, and WWE hasn’t acknowledged the deleted rant, but fans are already wondering if this means there’s tension behind the scenes.
McIntyre remains locked in for the Elimination Chamber, where he’ll battle Cena, CM Punk, Damian Priest, Seth Rollins, and Logan Paul. But after this latest move, it’s clear there might be more going on outside the ring than inside it.
