WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre recently revealed how his sword gets better treatment than him while they are traveling. He shared his hilarious interactions with TSA authorities, who usually check for electronics but were unexpectedly subjected to checks on a magnificent sword.

"The first time I went through TSA, it was like you're waiting in line, it's so monotonous, and the people who work there just say the same thing over and over almost in a robotic mode. They were like, 'Sir do you have any laptops or Ipads?' I went like, 'No. But I do have this great sword right here.' It caught their attention and unfortunately after that, the sword had to travel separately. It gets its own private plane, its own special treatment. It's actually treated better than me," McIntyre said.

McIntyre was barred from challenging for the WWE Championship as long as Bobby Lashley held it. He now has a final shot at winning gold at Crown Jewel before moving on to SmackDown. The Scottish Warrior has already stated that he will go after Roman Reigns' Universal Championship on the Blue brand.

Natalya and Tamina split up during the recent reshuffling of talent. The former was drafted to SmackDown while the latter moved to RAW. As per the latest backstage reports, neither of the two superstars knew their team was going to be disbanded.

Apart from Natalya and Tamina, WWE also split up Tegan Nox and Shotzi. It was a surprising decision as it means that Rhea Ripley and Nikki A.S.H. are the only tag teams left in the division. It will be interesting to see what the company will do after practically nullifying any challengers that could have faced Ripley and Nikki for the tag team titles.
