News on Drew McIntyre & WWE Universal Title Match at Crown Jewel

— In a follow-up to an earlier headline about WWE considering replacing Roman Reigns with Drew McIntyre in the originally planned triple threat match for the Universal title at Crown Jewel, this was reportedly considered at one point but the decision was made that McIntyre is instead better saved to be the next challenger for the title, very likely against Braun Strowman.

— One of the advantages of a three way match would be to protect a wrestler WWE is pushing (by having him not figure into the finish) but in this case, it is McIntyre who they are protecting which made his inclusion unnecessary.
