Drew McIntyre takes a dig at Naomi after beating her husband on WWE SmackDown

Drew McIntyre has taken a dig at Naomi after beating her husband, Jimmy Uso, on SmackDown. After The Scottish Warrior was accused of attacking Jacob Fatu backstage last week on the blue brand, Jimmy decided to confront him.

This led to a brawl between the two stars to start the show, and general manager Nick Aldis booked a no DQ match between them as the main event of the night. An entertaining match saw Jimmy come close to a win after dropping McIntyre with a Samoan Drop through the table.

The decorated tag team star attempted an Uso Splash but was struck in the face by a chair by his opponent. McIntyre then delivered a Claymore to win the match. After the match, the Scotsman continued to attack Jimmy until Cody Rhodes came out to make the save. But as Rhodes was checking on Jimmy, McIntyre dropped him with a Claymore to stand tall over both stars.

McIntyre has now shared an image from his attack on X (formerly Twitter) and taken a dig at Jimmy's wife, Naomi, by quoting her.

Insane Vince McMahon ideas that got canceled - Watch Here!

"Proceed. With. Caution," he wrote.

This catchphrase is associated with Naomi, and she has used it more after her heel turn earlier this year. The same words can also be seen in her X profile. Drew McIntyre's use of these words after beating Naomi's husband is a clear shot at her.

Drew McIntyre will face Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship

Last week, Drew McIntyre was announced to face Jacob Fatu to determine the number one contender for the Undisputed WWE Championship. However, Fatu had to be written off TV as he was reportedly dealing with a non-wrestling-related injury. This led to GM Nick Aldis making McIntyre versus Cody Rhodes for the championship official for Saturday Night's Main Event XLI.

The Scottish Psychopath lost to The American Nightmare in their title bout last month at Wrestlepalooza and will hope for a different outcome this time around.

About the author

Sherjeel Malik is a writer at Sportskeeda and covers pro wrestling. He was hooked on the product from the moment he saw The Hardy Boyz jumping off ladders during the Attitude Era. While he comes from an engineering background, Sherjeel’s love for pro wrestling and content writing led him to pursue a career in sports journalism. Before assuming his current role at Sportskeeda, Sherjeel worked at other reputable organizations for five years.

While writing articles, he ensures that he only relies on credible sources for information and covers relevant subjects that do not project an agenda against a particular person or association. WWE legend Paul Heyman once shared Sherjeel’s work on his social media handle.

Sherjeel’s earliest memory of pro wrestling is watching Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Undertaker square off for the WWE Title in the main event of a pay-per-view in 1998. His favorite wrestlers are Randy Orton and Jeff Hardy. While he admires Orton for his character work as a heel, he looks up to Jeff because of his unique wrestling style and risk-taking ability.

If he could go back to the Attitude Era, Sherjeel would like to manage Ken Shamrock and be his mouthpiece. He feels Shamrock’s promo skills prevented him from becoming a main event-level act in WWE. Hence, he would like to help the UFC Hall of Famer get over with fans.

When not writing about pro wrestling, he likes to read classics and fiction books.
