WWE have set Drew McIntyre and Cody Rhodes on a collision course for one of the most highly anticipated matches of WrestleMania 42 weekend for the WWE Championship that Drew finally vanquished Cody for.
McIntyre’s fourth world title victory in WWE is a particularly crowning achievement, because it is the culmination of Drew truly taking his game to another level with his heel character, becoming one of the most must watch characters and promos in the entire industry.
Rhodes is already entrenched as the new John Cena for WWE, and his status is untouchable at this point. Yet his feud with McIntyre is taking him to new heights, too, because having a heel like this to work with is allowing Rhodes to find new depths to his babyface character.
WWE could still make a third big star out of this WWE Title program at the Show of Shows, because there is a chance that another popular wrestler with ties to both of these guys gets involved.
According to a new report from the Wrestling Observer News, the crazy Jacob Fatu could potentially be added to this WrestleMania 42 WWE Title match to make it a high stakes Triple Threat.
While Fatu’s involvement appears to be less likely at this point, it is a very real possibility that some fans will look forward to as a way of adding more interest and a unique angle to an already heated rivalry between Rhodes and McIntyre.
Everyone loves Fatu. He gets huge reactions in the crowd, and he is such a unique and unpredictable character, as well as a hard hitting and highly athletic wrestler in between the ropes.
