WWE Champion Drew McIntyre will face Universal Champion Roman Reigns in the Survivor Series main event this Sunday. This match decides the brand supremacy and establishes the winner as the ‘top guy’ of WWE.

In a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, Drew McIntyre spoke about how Reigns has been the top guy due to his own credibility. “Roman has been the man for so many years in WWE,” said McIntyre. “There is something so special about his presence. He’s phenomenal in the ring, he’s a leader in the ring, and he’s reached this level for a reason.”
However, McIntyre is doing everything he can to establish brand supremacy as well as his name on the top.
“I’m putting in the work, and I’m going to keep doing that. When you think WWE, you think Roman Reigns. I want people to think of Drew McIntyre, and they’re going to after Survivor Series.”
