WWE fans were in for a surprise on this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw as Drew McIntyre made a shocking heel turn. McIntyre, who had been teasing a potential change in character for weeks, finally aligned himself with the Judgment Day stable, forming an alliance with Rhea Ripley. This unexpected turn of events has left fans wondering what the future holds for McIntyre and his new partnership.
The heel turn came at the end of Monday Night Raw when McIntyre and Ripley shook hands, solidifying their alliance. According to reports from Fightful Select, WWE has been planning this turn for McIntyre for quite some time, with the intention of keeping him as a heel for at least a couple of months. It remains to be seen whether McIntyre will become a full-fledged member of the Judgment Day stable or if this alliance is temporary.
The decision to turn McIntyre heel has been met with mixed reactions from fans. Some are excited to see a new side of McIntyre and believe that this change will freshen up his character. Others are skeptical about the direction WWE is taking with McIntyre, questioning whether a heel turn is the right move for one of the company’s top babyfaces. Regardless of the initial reactions, it is clear that WWE has put a lot of thought and planning into this storyline.

While the heel turn itself was a big moment, the real test lies in how WWE follows up on this storyline. It is crucial for the company to capitalize on the momentum and intrigue generated by McIntyre’s turn. This means developing compelling storylines and matches that keep fans invested in McIntyre’s character and his alliance with Ripley and the Judgment Day stable.
As fans eagerly await the next chapter in McIntyre’s journey, speculation is running rampant about the potential feuds and matchups that could arise from this heel turn. Will McIntyre clash with former allies turned enemies? Will he target the top champions on Raw? Only time will tell, but one thing is for certain – McIntyre’s heel turn has injected a new level of excitement and unpredictability into the Raw brand.
Opinion: It is always interesting to see a turn, or any kind of storyline for that matter, planned in advance and then executed. WWE has teased McIntyre turning for a long time now and then they finally went there. That is something interesting and it makes for some rather entertaining television. What matters now is following it up, but at least the start has gone well.
