Man of my word.
As you’re a man of yours - Congratulations @dmcintyrewwe on signing your new @wwe deal.
As we talked about after your #WrestleMania match, I know this Scottish Claymore represents everything that you, your family and your country embody.

As you know, I wanted to personally hand deliver this gift to you at your meeting with Nick Kahn, but I had warm cheat meals and chilled tequila waiting for me.
Congrats again brother and cheers to hunger, passion, climbing that mountain and always entertaining our fans.

It had been reported in recent months that McIntyre and WWE had not come to terms on a new contract. However, back in February Dave Meltzer reported that both sides were working with the idea that he would be remaining with the company.
McIntyre on television has recently cemented a heel turn, defeating Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 40 to win the World Heavyweight Championship. However, he lost it to Damian Priest minutes later after CM Punk attacked him following his championship win.
