WWE Crown Jewel: 5 possible finishes to Big E vs. Drew McIntyre's WWE Championship match

Big E and Drew McIntyre will clash at Crown Jewel for the WWE Championship.

The match was made in a rush as McIntyre, on the September 27 episode of RAW, challenged for the gold after Big E's successful title defense in a Steel Cage match against Bobby Lashley.

Leading up to the pay-per-view in Saudi Arabia, McIntyre and E have been squaring off in tag team competition against The Usos and The Dirty Dawgs in a storyline of "will they co-exist as a team."

Despite tensions flaring, they managed to keep it together by overcoming Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode on the latest edition of RAW.

Having said this, it remains to be seen whether WWE plans to put the belt on McIntyre at Crown Jewel as he is now a SmackDown Superstar. The blue brand already has the Universal Championship.

In this article, we look at five finishes for the WWE Championship match between Big E and Drew McIntyre.

#5. Drew McIntyre succumbs to the Big Ending

The Big Ending from the second rope on Bobby Lashley helped Big E retain his title in a Steel Cage match a few weeks ago on RAW.

The Powerhouse of Positivity will hope to repeat the same at Crown Jewel. If the champion can nail McIntyre with his finisher, it will surely spell curtains for the challenger.

Big E can then continue his unabated run as WWE Champion on RAW as new challenges await him on the red brand.

#4. Big E falls prey to the Claymore

The Claymore is one of the most destructive and lethal finishers in all of WWE. Drew McIntyre has put many superstars to rest with this move.

The Scottish Warrior would like nothing more than to make Big E his latest victim with the Claymore at Crown Jewel. If this happens, McIntyre will surely win the bout to be anointed WWE Champion for the third time.

WWE could look to have McIntyre on RAW as WWE Champion, and Big E could be drafted to SmackDown as the blue brand already has the Universal title.

#3. Kofi Kingston interferes to attack Drew McIntyre

Drew McIntyre and Kofi Kingston are no strangers.

The New Day member could look to interfere in the match by attacking Drew on behalf of Big E. If this happens, Drew McIntyre will win by disqualification, and the title will remain with the current champion.

Kofi Kingston and Drew McIntyre could start a rivalry on SmackDown, which would surely result in epic contests.

#2. Drew McIntyre uses his sword to threaten Big E resulting in a count-out

Angela is Drew McIntyre's trusted weapon when the odds are stacked against him. One would be reminded of how the Scottish Warrior used the sword to threaten Jinder Mahal in the build-up to their match at SummerSlam 2021.

If Drew McIntyre is unable to pin Big E with all his moves, he could end up using the sword to threaten the champion. Big E, in response, might take evasive action to avoid the looming threat, thereby ending up getting counted out.

WWE could consider using this finish as the championship will continue to remain on the red brand. McIntyre could also leave the contest with his head held high.

#1. Bobby Lashley annihilates Big E as the match ends in a disqualification

Bobby Lashley is in one of the toughest matches of his career against Goldberg at Crown Jewel.

Lashley's longing to be WWE Champion again is far from over. To protect his interest in the WWE title staying on RAW, The All-Mighty might look to interfere in this bout and take out Big E. This would result in the champion winning by disqualification, and the title won't change hands.

After Lashley is through with Goldberg, he can stake his claim for the WWE Championship by challenging Big E again on the red brand.
