Drew McIntyre off Friday’s WWE SmackDown due to health issue

Drew McIntyre is off tonight's WWE SmackDown due to a health issue, according to Dave Meltzer.

It's unknown what the issue is and the timetable for his return. 

McIntyre was in action last Sunday at WrestleMania 39 in a losing effort to WWE Intercontinental Champion Gunther and Sheamus in a three-way. The highly physical match was one of the highlights from both nights of action.
