WWE's "SmackDown" star, Sheamus, took to social media to show his support for his close friend, Drew McIntyre, and take a playful jab at McIntyre's SummerSlam opponent. With the highly anticipated live event at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan, just around the corner, Sheamus tweeted a GIF on Thursday featuring The Honkytonk Man donning the prestigious International Championship belt while making his iconic entrance into the ring.

Alongside the GIF, Sheamus simply captioned it with "THE [Goat Emoji]," making his admiration for McIntyre clear. The Honkytonk Man's reign as the International Champion is etched in WWE history, as he holds the record for the longest title reign, an impressive 454 days.

Such an accomplishment earned the Elvis impersonator a well-deserved spot in the WWE Hall of Fame. However, McIntyre's current opponent, GUNTHER, is well on his way to breaking that record, having held the Intercontinental Championship for an incredible 420 days leading up to SummerSlam.

It sets the stage for an intense showdown between the two talented wrestlers, with the coveted championship on the line at "The Biggest Party of the Summer."

McIntyre himself expressed his thoughts on the upcoming match, anticipating an all-out battle between him and GUNTHER inside the ring.

The Scottish Warrior spoke highly of his opponent, stating that the sky is the limit for the former WALTER. Clearly, both competitors are aware of the high stakes and are prepared to leave it all in the ring, promising an electrifying encounter that fans won't want to miss.

While McIntyre and GUNTHER focus on their impending clash, Sheamus gears up for his own challenge as one of the first two entrants into the Slim Jim Battle Royal, where he will join forces with LA Knight. The prospect of Sheamus and LA Knight squaring off in the Battle Royal adds an additional layer of excitement to the already action-packed event.

With SummerSlam just days away, the WWE Universe is buzzing with anticipation, eager to witness the clash of titans between Drew McIntyre and GUNTHER, as well as the thrilling spectacle of the Slim Jim Battle Royal with Sheamus and LA Knight leading the charge.

As the superstars prepare to give it their all, fans can expect nothing short of an unforgettable night of sports entertainment and unforgettable moments at Ford Field.
