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. Marching to the ring to his “Cult of Personality” theme song with the approval of RAW GM Adam Pearce, Punk spent […]

After watching Drew McIntyre leave Monday Night RAW after being deemed medically ineligible to wrestle in the King of the Ring Tournament, CM Punk decided that wasn’t acceptable and entered the ring with a microphone in hand to demand a face-to-face confrontation with the “Scottish Warrior.” But why? What did Punker have to say, and […]

After months and months of speculation about Drew McIntyre‘s future in professional wrestling, with more than a few (premature) Drew Galloway is #AllElite graphics made by overly eager fans, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson made things official on his social media accounts, announcing that the “Scottish Warrior” was sticking around in WWE on a new, long-term […]

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. From siding with the Judgment Day to beating up on Seth Rollins at Survivor Series to his all-time great social media slander of CM Punk ahead of WrestleMania 40, McIntyre went from a sword-wielding white knight […]

After watching CM Punk and Drew McIntyre get into it on a massive, expansive, genuinely exciting promo segment that felt like it could devolve into a shoot at any moment on RAW, Seth Rollins marched down to the ring, Seth Rollins emerged from the back on RAW t0 provide a calming presence between two of […]

After being off WWE television for the past few weeks rehabbing a torn triceps, CM Punk made the rare return to RAW in his hometown of Chicago, Illinois, to unload all his firepower on Drew McIntyre, Seth Rollins, and pretty much everyone else who has wronged him since he returned to the business. 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 […]

After teasing his big promo on RAW for the better part of two hours, Drew McIntyre found his moment quickly snatched up by Seth Rollins, a performer he accused of being addicted to the spotlight the week. Clearly annoyed by the “Visionary’s” actions and the reaction she routinely draws from a crowd, McIntyre waited in […]

Though Drew McIntyre already has his big match lined up at WrestleMania 40, throwing down with Seth Rollins in one of his two matches of the weekend for the World Heavyweight Championship, the one match WWE fans want to see more than any other is the “Scottish Warrior” versus CM Punk, the “Second City Saint” […]

After watching Seth Rollins take swing after swing at the biggest, baddest faction in all of professional wrestling, The Bloodline, since Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson made his triumphant return at RAW Day 1, it’s hard not to forget that he’s technically set to face-off against Drew McIntyre at the “Showcase of the Immortals,” marking their […]

When it comes to RAW, there are three performers who stand at the top of the card, vying for the title and designation of the brand’s top spot on the card: Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre, and Cody Rhodes, who is technically wrestling for the top title on SmackDown at WrestleMania 40 but curiously remains on […]

With WrestleMania 40 rapidly approaching, the WWE Universe has seen a number of its top babyfaces coming together in the pursuit of taking down The Bloodline for good, with Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins vowing to band together in an effort to end Roman Reigns’ time at the top of the card once and for […]

Though they should technically be focused on each other in the lead-up to WrestleMania 40, as they are technically set to face off for the World Heavyweight Championship, Drew McIntyre and Seth Rollins just can’t seem to help themselves: they really hate CM Punk. Afforded chances to talk wrestling in the lead-up to WrestleMania, with […]

After watching Drew McIntyre cut an absolutely insane promo on CM Punk at the top of RAW‘s third hour, making light of the “Second City Saint’s” injuries before celebrating his decision to drink in the notoriously straight edge Superstar’s honor, fans in San Jose, California, were treated to a special moment when the “Scottish Warrior” […]

After securing his biggest win in recent memory at the Elimination Chamber in Perth, Australia, Drew McIntyre made his triumphant stateside return in San Jose, California, where he was afforded a sizeable segment of RAW’s third hour to speak his mind about the match, his future, WrestleMania 40… and CM Punk. What, did you think […]

In the penultimate match of the Elimination Chamber, WWE decided to set history aside to run the Men’s Elimination Chamber match third on the four-match card, tipping the cap to Rhea Ripley for helping to sell some 50,000 tickets to her countrymen in Perth. An unusual decision? You bet; the star power of the men’s […]

Drew McIntyre hasn’t been lucky when he was trying to win any gold in the past year, and although he has remained a relevant figure in the WWE main event scene, his lack of gold is reflected in his new WWE 2K24 ratings. His new 89 OVR Rating is the lowest he’s had since the […]

The WWE 2K24 Ratings Reveal season continues as we get the OVR ratings of the Judgment Day’s Finn Balor, JD McDonagh, and Damian Priest. Although they haven’t been involved in the major storyline heading into WrestleMania XL, the Judgment Day remains one of the most dominant factions in WWE. Yesterday, UpUpDownDown revealed the WWE 2K24 […]

Though he’s officially been out of action for the better part of a month now following a torn triceps at the 2024 Royal Rumble, CM Punk remains a hot topic of conversation heading into the “Road to WrestleMania,” with Drew McIntyre refusing to go a week without trashing the “Second City Saint.” Now granted, some […]

If there’s one word to describe Drew McIntyre‘s current character within the WWE Universe, it’s got to be a hater. A certified bad boy who has cashed in his babyface credentials after a series of frustrating come-up-shorts for a very 2024 take on being a heel, McIntyre has fully taken advantage of all of the […]

Drew McIntyre is an absolute menace. Since fully throwing aside the idea of being a babyface in favor of embracing a new gimmick as the WWE Universe’s biggest hater, McIntyre has rapidly become one of the more entertaining personalities on RAW or SmackDown, using his expansive on-mic time to talk about, well, pretty much anyone […]

One year ago, Sami Zayn was on top of the WWE Universe. He’d just experienced a dramatic breakup with the hottest faction in professional wrestling, The Bloodline, was set to compete in the biggest match of his career in a hometown throwdown with Roman Reigns at the Elimination Chamber in his hometown, and was slowly […]

As fans pass through one of the most interesting moments in WWE’s seven decades of existence, with generational news seemingly breaking on a weekly basis, if there’s one thing the promotion desperately wants outside observers to focus on above all of the resignations, scandals, and backstage politicking, it’s that fans really want Cody Rhodes to […]

When news broke that Sami Zayn was going to be out of action for reasons both personal and Kayfabe following an “injury” at the hands of Drew McIntyre, it left a hole at the top of the RAW card. Now sure, technically, RAW had more main event caliber performers than they knew what to do […]

When news broke that CM Punk had suffered a triceps injury at the Royal Rumble that would not only require surgery but would keep him out of action for an expected 4-6 months, it effectively changed the entire trajectory of the WWE Universe moving forward. Suddenly, one of the two expected main event matches of […]

After getting into it on the microphone with Cody Rhodes and CM Punk over the past few weeks, it’s understandable that Drew McIntyre is feeling like he’s being attacked from all angles heading into the final RAW before the Royal Rumble. Now firmly out of the realm of being a babyface, with the line between […]

Drew McIntyre has been a member of the WWE Universe during this current run for almost seven years, returning at the 2017 NXT Takeover: Orlando and remaining a member of the promotion ever since. Freed from the “Chosen One” moniker that made him into a maligned persona during his first run with the company, McIntyre […]

After starting off RAW as only he can, with a big, flashy promo meant to pander to the local crowd, Cody Rhodes found himself interrupted by Drew McIntyre, who decided to interrupt his former Dashing Ones tag team partner in order to go down memory lane… and establish the pecking order for the RAW men’s […]

When Drew McIntyre was working his way up through the WWE ranks, CM Punk was a workhorse. A strong, charismatic performer with a collection of fans who loved his authenticity and in-ring grit, Punk was a hero to many, despised by a few, and the kind of performer developing young stars could look to as […]

After coming up short again against Seth Rollins with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship on the line, Drew McIntyre was at a crossroads. Would the Scottish heavyweight reconsider his plans, turning his attention to the Intercontinental Championship or seeking out a tag team partner to go after his former friends in Judgment Day? Or would […]

When it comes to RAW, no performer is a more wanted man than Seth Rollins. The proud holder of the top title on the red brand, the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, Rollins has Drew McIntyre on the books for a match at Day 1, CM Punk vowing to win the Royal Rumble in order to […]

Drew McIntyre is at a very interesting spot in his professional wrestling career. After falling into a bit of a rut following the end of his two WWE Championship runs, McIntyre has embraced his carnal desires for success without the limits of a babyface’s moral code, doing whatever he needs to in order to get […]
