The WWE is going through an exciting time currently. In the last few days, it has witnessed the return of Randy Orton and CM Punk and a few notable changes. One among them is the heel turn of Drew McIntyre.
The Scottish Psychopath joined hands with The Judgment Day to take on Team Cody Rhodes at the recently held Survivor Series: WarGames. But a returning Orton foiled his bid as he helped The American Nightmare and his team win.
Now, after the loss, Drew McIntyre has ranted about Orton on social media. Not just a jibe, the former WWE Champion also indulged in clever wordplay.

“This company is full of snakes,” he wrote, putting up a picture of himself and Orton, whose back was visible. While it’s clear that the jibe was directed at the 14-time champion, that he chose the word ‘snake’ – taking a hit at Orton’s The Viper moniker – is a testament to his sense of humor.

McIntyre was upset with Orton deciding to join the side of Rhodes, whose team also had Jey Uso. Uso had stripped Orton of his tag team belt before he went on a hiatus in 2022. So when Orton, who is known to exact revenge on his opponents, didn’t display his usual work, it riled up McIntyre.
