The WWE Champion's Social Media Game: A Controversial Move?
In a recent social media stir, WWE Champion Drew McIntyre found himself in a unique situation, leaving many fans intrigued and divided.
McIntyre, known for his online antics, reposted an old jab directed at fellow wrestler Cody Rhodes. The post, originally from a fan named Wilson, labeled Rhodes as "midcard for life." But here's where it gets interesting: McIntyre shared this post without providing the full context, leaving many to question his intentions.
The original exchange took place in 2020, when Rhodes expressed his disbelief in midcard titles. Wilson's response, which McIntyre reposted, was a playful dig at Rhodes' status. However, McIntyre's decision to share only this part of the conversation sparked controversy.
And this is the part most people miss: Wilson's relationship with Rhodes evolved over time. After Rhodes' impressive win and becoming the Undisputed WWE Champion in 2024, Wilson's tone changed. He celebrated Rhodes' achievement, calling him his favorite World Champion, and even praised Rhodes' ability to draw big crowds, deeming him worthy of the top spot in wrestling.
So, why did McIntyre choose to share only the initial jab? As the reigning champion, it's unlikely he'd highlight Wilson's positive posts about Rhodes. McIntyre's online persona, established during his feud with CM Punk, has solidified his position as one of wrestling's top antagonists. But is this move a clever strategy or a controversial misstep?
