Drew McIntyre Insists WWE SmackDown Match Is Still Happening

Drew McIntyre is adamant heâ€ll wrestle an injured superstar on WWE SmackDown this week.

The Scottish Warrior is scheduled to face Jacob Fatu in singles action later tonight. WWE is still advertising the match on its website despite reports that Fatu is dealing with a non-wrestling-related injury and could be out of action for an extended period of time.

The official match promo states that Fatu and McIntyre “have been engaged in a volatile rivalry, and the aggressive Superstars will finally collide one-on-one†on the upcoming edition of the blue brand in San Jose.

In a video message ahead of the match, Drew McIntyre declared that “the match is going to happen†because Fatu “stepped into my business a few weeks ago, and it had nothing to do with you… This is a guaranteed war. This is a match nobody should miss. Itâ€s a match I have to win.â€

Jacob Fatu returned to WWE SmackDown a few weeks ago. The Samoan Werewolf interrupted Drew McIntyre while he was cutting a promo on Cody Rhodes, igniting their feud.
