Drew McIntyre believes many in the WWE Universe are starting to realize he’s been telling the truth about CM Punk.
WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre recently sat down with Notsam Wrestling. When asked about his ongoing rivalry with CM Punk, McIntyre revealed that some fans told him at Fanatics Fanfest who met both him and Punk that he isn’t a nice person.
“I’ve been hearing about him yesterday,” Drew McIntyre began. “And basically every single person that came to get my autograph, they got his autograph. My picture, they got his picture. [And they said], ‘Like, man, he’s just really not a nice person.’ Honest, swear to God. It’s almost like I’ve been telling the truth this whole freaking time.
“It takes a little longer to get through to the ones at the back of the line, but eventually the truth comes out. I know nostalgia is strong. He was gone for so long, the legend grew and the name was chanted. But the truth is, he’s not a professional wrestler anymore. He’s an attraction. He brings eyeballs, and sadly, he went against the most dangerous on the mic, the most dangerous in the ring, and I’m exposing him.”
Drew McIntyre defeated CM Punk at SummerSlam
When asked about their match at SummerSlam, McIntyre spoke about the match and how it felt to defeat the self-proclaimed best in the world.
“When he said the biggest thing he’s got going for him is his heart. It’s true,” Drew McIntyre said. “And it’s not necessarily his heart. He’s one of the most stubborn pieces of crap on planet Earth. He’s so stubborn. He just won’t give up. He’ll keep pushing forward. And I was surprised when I got hit with the first punch, how much I felt it, I was surprised when he kept kicking out, and most of all, surprised by his durability cardio. So he caught me off guard in that way.
“Honestly, I’ve been in the ring with the best of the best the past 10 years, he still ranks right up there as much as I take the piss rightfully so he still can get it done in the ring. But most of all, he just refuses to give up, which is like Christmas for me, because I know fine well, he won’t stop until his heart does. And I have no problem with making that happen.
“Then at Summer Slam, people were like, ‘Oh, but Drew you kicked him low.’ I’m like, remember what happened in Scotland, how he cost me the match? It’s almost like everything that happens to him is absolutely deserved. Well, find me one time where I lied, where I was a hypocrite. You won’t find it. He literally lied last week, and went Drew called me a hypocrite. Like, no shit, you’re a liar. You’re a hypocrite. You said you weren’t there. You attacked me from behind. I’ve never lied once. I only tell the truth. God, it felt good to beat CM Punk.”
