Drew McIntyre thinks potential new WWE championship is 'absolutely justified'

In 2024, there have been various reports and rumours that discussions about a WWE women’s midcard title has taken place within the company.
During an interview with FOX News to promote WWE Bad Blood, Drew McIntyre was asked about the topic of a mid-card championship for the women’s division. He answered:

“That’s (WWE midcard women’s title) certainly something that’s going to come around in the near future, and you don’t just bring titles in for the sake of bringing titles (especially) if you don’t have the adequate depth on the roster.”
“But now, to watch just how far the women’s revolution has come – the revolution is such a distant memory now. The women have been killing it for years now.”
“And they got that opportunity years and years ago, and since then, we’ve had so many people come in, and it’s gotten to a point where it’s not a case of you want to be after any women’s matches, you do not want to be after the women’s match anymore because they’re going to go out there, they’re going to kill it, the (crowds) are going to be burnt out, and you’re going to have to work really hard to get them.”

“To watch the talent pool grow, the roster depth grow, and the characters, more importantly, connect with the audience, because if they don’t care about you, it doesn’t matter if you’re a man or a woman, nobody’s emotionally attached to you.”
“You might as well just sit in the back and not go out there. There’s so many characters the women’s division has gotten over now. We’re at a point where if there’s a second title introduced, it’s absolutely justified.”

Drew McIntyre is set to face CM Punk in a Hell In A Cell Match this Saturday, October 5 at WWE Bad Blood 2024.
Meanwhile, the women’s division will be well represented on the PLE with Liv Morgan defending the WWE Women’s World Championship against Rhea Ripley, while Nia Jax will face Bayley for the WWE Women’s Championship.
