WWE star Drew McIntyre appeared on The Masked Man Show, where he talked about a number of topics including his WWE Championship win during the pandemic era.
McIntyre said, “It’s not what I dreamed of when I was a kid, obviously. I didn’t sit there in Scotland fantasizing that one day I’m gonna main event WrestleMania and win the World title and nobody’s gonna be there. But it was just a necessity for the time.”
On carrying the title during the lockdown period:
“I’ve met so many people that have told me WWE literally saved their lives because it gave them that constant every single week during such an uncertain time.”
On his WrestleMania 40 win:
“I had that moment with Seth, and that moment with the fans chanting, you know, ‘You deserve it.’ And getting down on my knee, and presenting the title to my wife. And she’s been such a big part of the journey – the reason I’m the man I am today – and hugging my brother, who was my first tag team partner.”
