On the latest episode of BroDown, Vince Russo criticized Triple H for the booking of Drew McIntyre. He spoke about The Scottish Warrior's segment on SmackDown this week and mentioned how he was just whining. Russo also pointed out that this didn’t make sense for the star.

"The biggest problem. You know, we make it clear, you and I are both Drew McIntyre fans. He's got it all, bro. He's got it all. There's no question about it. Now you put him out in the ring, and now he sounds like he's whining. Let me tell you something. Here's why they are so out of touch with reality. A guy that looks like Drew McIntyre, he's not going to whine, he's going to be k**ling people. You can put someone else in a whiner role, not a Drew McIntyre."

Russo continued and said he couldn't believe this was how McIntyre was written. He said that it wasn't his fault since he was working with the material he was given, but he blamed Triple H for it. He also questioned Jacob Fatu's sudden appearance.

"And I'm watching this and I'm like, bro, now he sounds like he's whining. Again, let me make it clear, Drew does not write the show, so Drew is trying to work with the material they are giving him. Here comes Jacob Fatu. Why? And then Triple H is going to tell us about the great storytelling. 'We got the best storytelling on television.' What's the story here Trips?"

Triple H has booked Drew McIntyre into a feud with Jacob Fatu on WWE SmackDown

The star was unable to win the match against Cody Rhodes after the referee stopped him from hitting the Claymore outside the ring. This stoppage caused him enough hesitation, giving Rhodes enough time to recover and allowing him to continue the match, thereby avoiding the Claymore. McIntyre instead hit the commentary table with the move, which resulted in his leg getting hurt immediately.

On WWE SmackDown, he made it clear that he blamed the referee for losing that match and missing out on the chance to become the new Undisputed WWE champion. He was also wearing a leg brace when out, despite the WWE doctors clearing him. He went on to accuse Rhodes of paying off the referees, but things went to another level when he was interrupted by Nick Aldis, who had enough of his complaining. Soon after, the arrival of Jacob Fatu brought an end to his tirade.

Fatu attacked McIntyre, forcing him to retreat. It's assumed that this will be the new feud for the star going forward. It remains to be seen what Triple H has planned.
