In the tradition of Asuka and Bob♕by Roode, WWE premiered a new signing to NXT in the froജnt row of the crowd at Takeover: Orlando tonight.
This guy:
So former WWE superstar Drew McIntyre, who was once Vince McMahon's "Chosen 🦄One," has return🍌ed to the fold.
Since leaving WWE in 2014, he has wo꧂rked for TNA Impact Wrestling (under his real name, Drew Galloway) and for independent promotions all over the wor🐈ld.
His contract with Impact ran out at the end of February and he chose not to re-sign. He has been wre🎶stling for WCPW and Evolve recently, and had said he enjoyed the freedom that those promotions afforded him.
But it looks like the pulꦑl of the mother ship's ꧟tractor beam was just too strong.
It should be noted t𝔉hat he was pulled from the WWN show tonight, and ✤this is the reason why.
WWE released a statement confirming McIntyre is back andꦡ with NXT.
