The only way this result ends up OK is if the eventual dethroning of Roman has a just as hot crowd going just as nuts for someone who is just as popular as Drew was last night.
The absolute only scenario that can achieve that is Cody in the main event of next year's Wrestlemania I feel. That match would have sooooooo much to live up to to be able to look back on Clash at the Castle and go 'yeah, that actually was the right call cause it made this Wrestlemania moment even better'. But that's so many tangibles to get to a moment that YOU HAD RIGHT THERE ALREADY.

what the heck is Drew going to be doing for the forseeable future? They've literally been setting up a feud with Kross since he came back. Which I believe is below Drew, but they're gonna do it anyway.

The year 2032
'Could it be? Oh my!'
'Thats Roman Reigns' 3rd cousin on his dad's side twice removed!, What's he doing here?'
'Hes clearly aligned with his Grandmother's uncle's stepson's niece'. Roman retains the title again!'

Welp, I said I wouldn't be surprised if they screwed Drew, despite the obvious open goal for a perfect happy ending...
I slept on it, and although in the moment I accepted that I half-expected it to happen and was just baffled by the fact that they proved me right (I heard a bunch of people around me getting increasingly frustrated at the ending sequence), it's really not done good things for my hope that HHH was going to reform Vince's unfortunate tendencies.
Why would you deny the UK fans that moment? Why would you deny Drew that moment? Why would you prove naysayers like me right ("meet the new boss, same as the old boss")? You had it right there!

Isn't that basically the entire population of Samoa (according to wrestling family logic)? We might have quite some years to come before we run out of distant relatives and blood brothers... Edit: Also thanks to this thread I've had those six notes to Seven Nation Army running through my head for the last couple of hours. Make it stop!

Still salty about but f*** it, it is what it is
I will say this, this is what wrestling is supposed to be. You build up to big moments like this and you can't let it slip through your fingers. That hometown pop would been legendary and you could pivot back to your original plans in 2 months when building for Mania season
With that said, Drew needs to move on. Put him with the Brutes or something. Let Drew have a banger match/feud with GUNTHER. Keep him busy and away from the WWE title

Keep him busy and away from the WWE title Move him down to the IC/US level and he finds a good spot the rest of his career in the WWE. He may not hit 2020 highs again, but he can still have a good career racking up multiple IC and US reigns.

So according to WON, Drew thought the show was no longer going live when he did the singalong. I can't imagine he was particularly chuffed to find that out.

I imagine McIntyre actually did just shrug about it. That's probably true. The dude might be just too nice to be the top guy of the company.
