Drew McIntyre confirms previous reports that he stormed out of the building following his elimination at WWE Royal Rumble.
WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre was a recent guest on the Getting Over Podcast. When asked about the reports that he stormed out of the building at the Royal Rumble, McIntyre said that while not all the details are accurate, he confirms that the incident did take place.
“Not all the details are accurate, but yeah, I was fuming (at WWE Royal Rumble), and I let everybody know what I thought, and then I left,” Drew McIntyre said. “Because I’ve learned as an adult, nothing good happens when you’re highly emotional. So just calm down, get the facts, then deal with it because I don’t want to punch somebody in the head and be unprofessional, and then find out facts later I didn’t know about.
“It was the grown-up thing to do. For me, it’s just if I ever feel somebody did something disrespectful, went into business for themselves, and the like. That’s when I get frustrated, and sometimes it’s not what it appears on the surface. You have to get all the facts together, and you have to just calm down.
“It’s just fun that every time I have a moment — it doesn’t happen often. Priest finally jokes about it on the promo because that’s all he’s got aside, ‘Drew complains all the time. He’s always gonna leave the building,’ and I was like, ‘Come on, mate, it’s a couple times in a few years.’ Consider I’m Scottish, I got an anger problem, that’s not too bad. Also, if I stayed, I might have punched some people out and been like, oh, actually, it wasn’t their fault. Wakey, wakey.” [H/T: WrestlingNews.co]
Drew McIntyre will face Damian Priest in a Sin City Street Fight on night two of WrestleMania 41 later this month.
