Fatu went on to challenge Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship at Backlash but came up short. The Samoan Werewolf attended an Acknowledgment Ceremony for Reigns following the loss and unleashed a brutal attack. Fatu will once again be challenging The OTC for the World Heavyweight Championship in a Tribal Combat match at WWE Clash in Italy on May 31. <\/p>\n<p>Drew McIntyre lost the Undisputed WWE Championship to Cody Rhodes on the road to WWE WrestleMania 42. The American Nightmare is scheduled to defend the title against Gunther at Clash in Italy later this month. <\/p>\n<h2>Drew McIntyre explains how the lack of WWE house shows has helped him<\/h2>\n<p>Wrestling veteran Drew McIntyre recently shared how the lack of house shows has been a positive for him. <\/p>\n<p>Speaking on <em>Bobby Bones Presents: The BobbyCast<\/em>, McIntyre shared how he changed his training routine now that there are fewer house shows. The former champion noted that he only <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/news-drew-mcintyre-explains-wwe-cutting-house-shows-benefitted-him-details-change-training-routine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">wrestles one match every couple of months<\/a> now and trains for each bout. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cThese days, I probably wrestle one match every couple of months. They finally eliminated most of the non-televised shows. One, the talent were just getting hurt all the time and going out quicker, and two, from a profit standpoint, it just didn\u2019t make sense. It never made sense to me, profit-wise. So now, the money\u2019s in the TV deals and all the other massive deals that the billion dollar man Nick Khan is constantly making so because I\u2019m wrestling once every two months, every three months, I do feel like I\u2019ve been in a car crash after the matches and I train for each match now, like, I assume a boxer would train for a fight, UFC fighter would train for a fight, I train for each pro wrestling match.\u201d said McIntyre.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"sportskeeda-embed\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/twitter-embed\">\n<div class=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/twitter-embed\">\n<div class=\"profile-card\">\n<p><span><span>Drew McIntyre paid a visit to Geodis Park \u26bd\ufe0f<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>It will be interesting to see what WWE has planned for Drew McIntyre following his loss at WrestleMania. <\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\" title=\"like article\"><br \/>\n<img class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" data-lazy=\"\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\" title=\"dislike article\"><br \/>\n<img class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" data-lazy=\"\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"bottom-tagline bottom\" data-tab=\"bottom\">\n<p>Get all the hottest wrestling news FIRST by clicking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=sportskeeda.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\" class=\"bottom_tagline_link\" data-tab=\"bottom\">here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tag-cloud\">\n<div class=\"tags-text\">\n<div class=\"scrollable-content-holder  article-padding\">\n<p class=\"article-p  \">Quick Links<\/p>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerLeft\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Left \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img style=\"background: none;\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-left.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button><\/p>\n<nav id=\"pnProductNav\" class=\"pn-ProductNav\">\n<\/nav>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerRight\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Right \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img style=\"background: none;\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-right.svg\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<p>More from Sportskeeda<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<span class=\"publisher-name\">Edited by Robert Lentini<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/news-drew-mcintyre-shares-personal-update-amid-wwe-hiatus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Drew McIntyre shared a personal update amid his hiatus from WWE.
