When Paul “Triple H” Levesque went out to the Money in the Bank post-show press conference to discuss WWE’s latest Premium Live Event, there was one question – other than about John Cena’s retirement -he just had to know was going to be asked by a member of the media in attendance: why didn’t Damian […]

Let me know if you’ve heard this one before: Drew McIntyre did something good on a WWE Premium Live Event and looked primed to have a major come-up in his professional wrestling career, only for CM Punk to come out and ruin it. A tale as old as time, right? Or at least since earlier […]

When it comes to consequencial events in the WWE Universe, few hold the same weight as Money in the Bank. Sure, WrestleMania is still WrestleMania, the Super Bowl of the squared circle, if you will, and the Royal Rumble is up there, too, as it guarantees two performers’ main event matches on the show. But […]

Outside of maybe Chad Gable, nobody in the WWE Universe had a more eventful week than Drew McIntyre. From losing his match at Clash at the Castle against Damian Priest in heartbreaking fashion, with CM Punk throwing on a referee’s shirt to interfere with the ultimate outcome, to declaring that he quit the promotion outright […]

While CM Punk is one of the most popular wrestlers on the planet, his appeal is anything but universal, with large and sometimes very vocal corners of the fandom taking shots at the man self-mythologized as the “Best in the World.” Fans of AEW, or at least of The Elite specifically? Yeah, they have a […]

Though the events of Clash at the Castle have been slightly overshadowed by the main event of Monday Night RAW, when Chad Gable was “massacred” by a returning Uncle Howdy and his faction, the Wyatt Sick6, apparently no one told that to CM Punk, as he ran down to the ring for a rare SmackDown […]

All WWE had to do to have a successful Clash at the Castle was execute one simple booking decision: Drew McIntyre wins the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

With Clash at the Castle rapidly approaching, Drew McIntyre has a chance to finally secure a WWE world championship, this time the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, in front of fans, a fate robbed from him during his first two reigns with the WWE Championship due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

With Clash at the Castle rapidly approaching, Drew McIntyre landed in his university town of Glasgow to have a special pre-show kickoff event moderated by Michael Cole in front of his friends, family, and countrymen, and needless to say, they were very much in his corner. While Damian Priest attempted to talk a big game, […]

In the opening segment of the go-home edition of RAW before Clash at the Castle, Drew McIntyre predictably opened up the show, but he didn’t come out of the grates with some pre-written promo filled with pontification about his journey, his goals, or his ambitions. No, McIntyre instead decided to shoot from the hip and […]

After defeating Jordynne Grace in a surprisingly bloody NXT Battleground match featuring outside interference from Tatum Paxley and Dana Brooke/Ash by Ellegance, you would think Roxanne Perez would be in a pretty good mood, right?

Heading into NXT Battleground, Shawn Michaels hinted that there could be plenty of surprises at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada, with the presence of TNA Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace, hinting at even more Forbidden Door moments potentially on the books. Technically, that did happen, as Dana Brooke returned to NXT under her new […]

When Drew McIntyre made deadlines for celebrating TNA star Joe Hendry for being an entertaining presence and valuable member of the TNA roster in a recent interview with Cultaholic, no one was more excited by the admission than the “The Prestigious One” himself, Joe Hendry. Sure, Hendry doesn’t necessarily need McIntyre to put him over, […]

While Bron Breakker has been dominating within the WWE Universe for years now, winning the NXT Championship twice, finding success as both a babyface and as a heel, and even earning Tag Team gold alongside Bron Breakker in an unlikely tag team, a whole new collection of WWE fans have discovered the second-generation Steiner since […]

With Clash at the Castle rapidly approaching, there’s no member of the WWE Universe, not even Cody Rhodes, who is more of a focal point in the promotion than Drew McIntyre, the first-ever Superstar to come from the country.

Though Drew McIntyre has spent the vast majority of his adult life living in America while pursuing his professional wrestling dreams in the WWE and beyond, in his heart, he is a son of Scotland through and through, with his gimmick, song, nickname, and presentation all built around his country of origin.

After getting into it a bit with Adam Pearce, you’d think Drew McIntyre could drive off into the sunset, enjoy the rest of his night, and reload for the final RAW of May, where plenty of his co-workers will be coming off of a direct flight from Saudi Arabia. … but if you expected that, […]

If there’s one thing fans of professional wrestling know very, very, very well, it’s that Drew McIntyre and CM Punk do not like each other one bit.

On Monday Night RAW, CM Punk cut a massive seven-minute promo on Drew McIntyre for always running away from the fight, even if he literally saw his car drive away moments before he exited his own vehicle. Would it have been cool to see McIntyre and Punk duke it out either on the mic or […]

While Jinder Mahal filled a number of roles during his WWE career, from manager to band member and even WWE Champion, one he never got to explore on the grandest stage of professional wrestling was himself, a second-generation professional wrestler from Canada who is incredibly proud of his Punjabi heritage. But why? Why did Mahal […]

When Drew McIntyre opted to leave RAW literal seconds before CM Punk showed up to confront him at the XL Center in Hartford, Connecticut, it sent WWE’s “Straight Edged Superstar” into an absolute frenzy.

After weeks, nay, months of curious updates regarding Drew McIntyre‘s status in WWE, with the “Scottish Warrior” reportedly working his WrestleMania 40 match without a contract extension on the books, it would appear that CM Punk’s number one hater won’t be going anywhere any time soon, all thanks to… Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson? That’s right, […]

After watching Drew McIntyre take a seat in the middle of the ring to cut another brutal, anti-CM Punk promo on Monday Night RAW, one of the “Scottish Warrior’s” best friends in the WWE locker room, Sheamus, marched down to the ring to get his good friend to take a deep breath, acknowledge his shortcomings […]

While Drew McIntyre has said a lot about how hard it was to win the WWE Championship during the pandemic without any fans in attendance, The Undertaker also had his big moment, his final match in the Boneyard, in a pre-recorded manner, with the “Deadman” watching it back on a screen just like everyone else. […]

When Damian Priest cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on Drew McIntyre five or so minutes after his massive, career-affirming victory in the open match of WrestleMania 40, it turned his already contentious feud with the “Best in the World” CM Punk into a borderline Hunger Games. Finally, after all of his struggles, […]

After watching Seth Rollins take some serious damage on Night 1 of WrestleMania 40, Drew McIntyre knew he had a pretty good chance he’d leave WrestleMania 40 as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, so long as CM Punk and/or Damian Priest didn’t ruin arguably the biggest moment of his career. Taking the ring with their […]

If you had to describe Drew McIntyre‘s current WWE character in one word, it would probably be a hater.

Standing in […]

When it comes to professional wrestling, no one, not “Hangman” Adam Page, not Tony Khan, not Seth Rollins, not even “Jungle Boy” Jack Perry, hates CM Punk more than the “Scottish Warrior” Drew McIntyre. Now why does McIntyre hate Punk so viciously? I think it’s best described as committing to a bit, as he doesn’t […]

If things go Drew McIntyre‘s way at WrestleMania 40, he will finish out his match against Seth Rollins with his arm lifted high and the World Heavyweight Championship around his waist, but even if that happens, the “Scottish Warrior” won’t be fully out of the woods, as Damian Priest will surely be waiting in the […]
