From the moment he debuted in WWE, Drew McIntyre has been said to be a future world champion. So McIntyre fulfilled a prophecy at WrestleMania 36 by winning the WWE Championship. It took him 12 long years to reach the top, but it can certainly be said that ‘deserved it. McIntyre was released from WWE in 2014, but made a strong comeback in 2017 when he captured the NXT Championship. And now he has become the best champion of the world’s largest professional wrestling organization.
To reach the pinnacle, McIntyre had to defeat the “Conqueror”. McIntyre quickly defeated Brock Lesnar to win the championship and become the face of the organization.
But how important is it to beat Brock Lesnar in WWE? The last 4 fighters to beat Lesnar were Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, Goldberg and McIntyre. They all became champions and received extraordinary impulses. Although not said but Lesnar seems to be the final frontier to reach the top in WWE. And McIntyre also agrees with the notion.
‘Yes, beating Brock Lesnar is a big deal. There is no athlete in the world like Brock Lesnar. He’s just a freak of nature and a former two-time UFC heavyweight champion, just because he wanted to try the UFC, not because he did it all his life. That’s how bad this guy is. If you beat Brock Lesnar, you’re doing something right, “McIntyre said in an exclusive conversation with the Hindustan Times.
“But the fact that I beat Lesnar in the WrestleMania main event and also in five minutes and that I almost owned him in the build-up seems absolutely incredible to me. That is something I will never forget. Something that set the tone for the reign of my title. The fact that I beat Brock and Big Show consecutively. “

He will now face Seth Rollins at Money in the Bank while defending his WWE Championship. Seth also used to be a fan favorite after beating Lesnar last year, but things changed dramatically later in 2019. Seth saw a negative reaction from fans after a few posts on Twitter. Then his victory over “The Demon” Bray Wyatt was the nail in the coffin.
Seth became the number one enemy and soon changed his personality to the twisted “Monday Night Messiah”. How does McIntyre see this change? He believes fans finally saw through Rollins and didn’t believe much of what he was saying.
‘A lot of things went into Seth Rollins and his relationship with fans changed slightly. I spoke about Raw this week and had a few remarks for Seth. We are similar in many ways, we love this industry, he works very hard. But sometimes it seems insincere. In his title race, when he was talking about fans and how everyone helped him get there. I didn’t quite believe him when he said that.
This is because Seth only loves people who can help him get ahead and the only person he loves in the world is himself. Fans can watch through BS. And the fact that he has become the Messiah has shown that my theory is correct. My point is that fans see through nonsense. I have tried to be real. If you like it, it’s great and if not, then it’s also great. “
McIntyre has shown much more personality since the turn of the year. He’s getting more involved with fans and having conversations with fighters and is much more entertaining than his former “Scottish psycho” character. The Scotsman says that having the opportunity to be himself has led him to be much more successful.
“It’s not a personality change, I’m actually myself. Like finally Before, I was just a serious Scottish boy talking about eating corpses. No human being talks like that. He was just a bad boy for the good guys to fight. Finally, I had a chance to be myself, there was no particular moment when they told me to come face to face. I never started saving good people, I was just hitting people. I beat the No Way Jose conga line and people He cheered for her. It’s been a pretty good ride with the fans behind me. “
