As seen during the July 12th 2025 edition of WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, Randy Orton and country music star Jelly Roll vs. Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul was officially confirmed for SummerSlam. However, McIntyre’s status for the show is seemingly in jeopardy as he stated in a Twitter/X video that he currently can’t travel to the United States from England because he doesn’t have his passport.

McIntyre wrote that there is a “good chance” he misses SummerSlam and then stated the following in the video…

“It’s quite the week I’ve had. You want to know how it’s been capped off? I can’t get back in America. They wouldn’t let me board my flight. I’m in England still. I’m at my buddy’s wedding. What a wedding it was. Planning to go back, train for SummerSlam. But no, no, no, no, no I got blocked. Wife and I walked up to the gate trying to check in. Always goes perfectly fine. Not this time. ‘You don’t have your US passport. I know who you are. I know you’ve lived there for a long time. I know you’re showing me pictures of US passport and your global entry It doesn’t matter. I know exactly who you are, your property and the likes. But no, we can’t let you in the country, buddy. We can’t let you in the country.’ So my wife and I panic. We say we’ve got a sick animal at home. We’re good people. We care about our animals. We care about people. Go ahead, babe. Don’t think about me. Leave me behind. Leave me to die behind. It’s okay. She has to go against her will. Goes back home, look after the cat. And here I am.

So what happened? What changed this trip? Jelly Roll. You know somebody? Got some connections? You got your 15 minutes of Fame right now. You can get away with some stuff. You’re hot. Soon you will not be. You’re getting in while you can. You realize when I took off my shirt on SmackDown, you went, ‘Oh my God, all that aura, I’m screwed.’ So you’re going to screw up my training for SummerSlam week. Why am I in a field? I don’t know why I’m in a field. I can tell you one thing. When this is all over and I’m going to get back, I’m going to drop you, Jelly Roll. I’m going to make you pay. And eventually, you’re going to gain all that weight back and you’re going to look like one of these f*ckers [shows a cow].”
