Top WWE Star Upset By WrestleMania Plans
A top WWE star wants more.
While his in-ring achievements speak for themselves, Drew McIntyre has become equally famous for saying exactly what he thinks. This, often verbally blistering approach, has earned the star hoards of new fans while giving his on-screen character another dimension.
At the heart of McIntyre’s outspoken nature is a desire to be the best and take what he feels is his rightful spot at the top of the wrestling industry. This includes a place in a match for championship gold at WrestleMania.
However, with the event just around the corner, McIntyre looks set to face Damian Priest with not a hint of a title in sight.
In a new interview with The Daily Star, McIntyre addressed his rivalry with Priest and the fact he’s “p*ssed off” at not being in the title picture.
We’ve still got six weeks until Mania and anything can change in that time. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t p****d off at not being in one of the title matches after the 2024 I had, but it’s just because I’m so highly competitive and sometimes, you know, there’s only a few spots.
I appreciated when the fans reaction was, oh my goodness, it’s Priest and Drew, there’s nothing there. I’m like bloody hell, give us a chance to tell the story. The thing with Priest has been going on since last year’s WrestleMania when he cashed in on me after I was assaulted by Punk.
He doesn’t know how to succeed unless it is at my expense. Elimination Chamber I claymore Cena. Instead of going ‘I’ll let Drew pin Cena first’, he eliminates me. It’s the only way he knows how to succeed because he is a vulture. A parasite. A big emo vulture.
Finally, he’s got my attention because they’ve got nothing else. I stomped him in his big stupid head last week and if he wants to keep coming back for more, if it goes all the way to Mania, it’s a year in the making story and he deserves the biggest stage of all to get his stupid looking arse kicked.
Drew McIntyre Pushing For WWE Raw Appearance
During the same interview, Drew McIntyre revealed he’s been trying to land a spot on the March 24 edition of Raw.
The taping is set to be held in Glasgow, Scotland, but given McIntyre’s now a SmackDown Superstar he looks set to miss out on a popular homecoming. The star isn’t scheduled to appear on WWE’s European tour on television again until March 28 in London for SmackDown.
However, he claimed he’s been shouting at all the right people to ensure he makes it out in front of the Glasgow crowd on Raw.
