With six weeks to go until the Show of Shows, other changes could be in store. The next four clear signs point to Drew McIntyre likely losing the Undisputed WWE title before WrestleMania 42.
#4. Interfering and clashing with SmackDown GM Nick Aldis
The main issue surrounding Drew McIntyre and the Undisputed title is interference. The acts stem from a contract clause that was added before the 3 Stages of Hell match in which McIntyre captured the title from Rhodes.
The rule was that Rhodes could no longer challenge for the title as long as Drew was Champion. Jacob Fatu interfered during the final stage, with his actions allowing McIntrye to escape the cage.
The fact that Cody has still competed for and could potentially earn a title shot is why Drew keeps attacking him and other potential opponents. These attacks angered Aldis, as he booked the two in a title match on SmackDown.
There are many moving parts, some of which make sense and some of which don’t. If Cody can still “earn” title shots, what was the point of mentioning it ahead of 3 Stages of Hell?
#3. Another match with Rhodes on SmackDown
As already mentioned, by interfering in the Elimination Chamber finish, Aldis gave Rhodes another shot at Drew McIntyre and the title on the upcoming SmackDown.
It’s no secret that The American Nightmare is WWE’s top star. It’s why he keeps getting and winning prominent title shots via the Royal Rumble or King of the Ring.
Since the two bitter rivals are clashing yet again before WrestleMania, a title swap before the PLE could be an excuse to get Rhodes in another main event.
#2. Jacob Fatu could cost Drew McIntyre
Jacob Fatu has been another prominent player in the ongoing issues with McIntyre and Rhodes. He influenced the ending of the steel cage match final of the 3 Stages of Hell. He keeps running through security every week on SmackDown.
Nick Aldis hasn’t fined or suspended The Samoan Werewolf, instead trying to calm him down. Fatu keeps saying he wants Drew McIntyre, but Aldis keeps postponing the inevitable showdown.
Since the GM keeps giving Rhodes shots while Fatu keeps waiting, it feels like almost a certainty that Fatu will interfere and/or cost one or the other in their match on SmackDown.
#1. Orton vs. Rhodes in some capacity seems imminent for WrestleMania 42
The Viper has also been a featured player in the drama with Rhodes and Orton. The two have remained allies, even with major title shots on the line.
The Champ blasted Orton in a match with Aleister Black after he had qualified for the Elimination Chamber. Officials have written title aspirations into a few stars’ promos, including Sami Zayn and Randy Orton.
The Apex Predator wants a 15th title. Zayn wants #1. With Rhodes’ and Orton’s spots in WWE, officials will want both in big spots at WrestleMania. Rhodes could win the title and face The Viper since he won the Chamber.
