Drew McIntyre recently spoke to Digital Spy about the
Undertaker’s streak ending and more. Here are the highlights…
On Going From The Chosen One to 3MB: “It was
obviously night and day, the difference. I went from a Terminator-style
character to being in a band, having a good time. For myself, at the time it was
pretty good. I did suffer a hand injury and have to get surgery. I wore a cast
for about the first seven months of 3MB, I had to get a screw put in my wrist.
It gave me a chance to show a different side of my personality, rather than be
serious all the time. That’s what it’s all about. You can’t just be the same
character forever, you’ve got to add some layers, show some personality. That’s
what we’re all about – we’re about entertainment, and I’m having a great time
right now. One day I’ll maybe get a little serious again and start heading for
those titles.”
On The Undertaker’s Streak Ending: “I was
completely in shock. Nobody saw it coming. If anybody happened to miss the
finish they would have had unlimited oxygen to breathe because everybody held
their breath at the same time! It was just unbelievable. The reaction – just
silence. I don’t even know how to describe it. I did not see it coming. My dad
was at the event, he was frantically calling me! That’s how big it was I guess,
my dad’s trying to phone me saying, ‘What’s going on, what’s going on? The
Undertaker lost!’ He couldn’t comprehend it, I don’t think anybody could. I know
it’s a moment that’ll be remembered. Lesnar is going to go down in history as
the man who did it.”
On Sting Possibly Coming to WWE: “He’s somebody
who’s never been in the company, if that was to happen it would obviously be a
very big thing, but as I always say – don’t believe everything you read on the
internet until it actually happens!”
