Drew McIntyre updated fans that he could miss SummerSlam as he was stuck outside the country ahead of the event. There has been talk of WWE replacing him in the match.

As per a report by Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE's legal team is currently working on getting Drew McIntyre back to the United States. The star had taken his United Kingdom passport with him as he was going to the UK after SmackDown. He had to attend a wedding. When he was coming home, however, he faced an issue, as they did not accept his passport, claiming he was no longer a citizen of the UK.

"WWE legal is working on getting Drew McIntyre back in the U.S. by Saturday for SummerSlam. Basically, he brought his U.K. passport with him since he was going to the U.K. after Smackdown to a wedding. When he went to come home, they didn’t accept the passport, saying he was a U.S. citizen, not a U.K. citizen. That was the last we heard but was told WWE is working on it. I certainly expect it’ll be cleared up shortly," Meltzer revealed.
