Drew McIntyre was written off TV at WWE Day 1 following his win over Madcap Moss. When he was being interviewed backstage, Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss brutally assaulted him.

The company's official Twitter handle provided an update stating that Drew McIntyre suffered a cervical neck strain with severe contusions. While many thought that it was just a part of the storyline, there was a reason why he was taken out.

Drew McIntyre beating Madcap Moss was never in question, but the company decided to write him off so he can deal with legitimate neck issues, as reported by PWInsider:

"The word backstage is that the angle was brought about by some legitimate neck issues McIntyre has been dealing with of late (at least several weeks), necessitating him needing to undergo medical testing. So, WWE wrote him out of storylines with the attack to be proactive about the situation."

We hope this isn't true because the timing is close to WrestleMania season. Hopefully, it's a short-term break and Drew McIntyre returns on time for the road to WrestleMania.
