WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre recently spoke to News 18 on several professional wrestling topics. “The Scottish Psychopath” talked about his journey in the business of professional wrestling, whether or not he prefers to play the heel, and a possible match with former WWE Champion AJ Styles.
Read some highlights below:
His journey in professional wrestling: “It is an interesting journey. I can compare it to a roller-coaster, so many ups and downs. But it is all of that has helped shape the wrestler that I am and the man I am today.”
Whether or not he prefers playing the heel: “I don’t really see myself as one. I think I have always got a point. Everybody else doesn’t necessarily agree with it. It is 2019 – I don’t really care whether I am looked as the bad guy or the good guy. The crowd are booing or cheering, as long as they are making noise, I don’t care. I stand by with conviction with what I am saying.”
Possible match-up with AJ Styles: “Absolutely! I have never had a match with AJ Styles. When I went to Impact Wrestling, he had just left. In the independent scene, we were trying to set up the match but that never quite happened. So, we just kept missing each other. When I came back to Raw, he was on Smackdown. Now, we are finally on the same show.
“When I first started wrestling, like 18 years ago, it was guys like AJ, Christopher Daniels, Samoa Joe, Loki who were the new generation of wrestlers with different styles, trying to get the attention. I am very much looking forward to that (battle).”
