Drew McIntyre comments on winning the Men’s Elimination Chamber match and says he plans to finish the story at WrestleMania 40.
Drew McIntyre won the Men’s Elimination Chamber match at WWE Elimination Chamber. In doing so, he earned a shot at Seth Rollins’ World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 40. For McIntyre, the match will be a chance to get his moment in front of a live crowd. He previously won the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 36, but the show was held in an empty arena due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Speaking on WWE’s The Bump, Drew McIntyre commented on his victory and looked ahead to WrestleMania. (H/t Corey Brennan of Fightful for the transcription)
“I can barely hear the words after getting hit in the ear so hard,” Drew McIntyre said. “It’s fine. I said I would do whatever it takes, not just for me but for everybody else. And every superplex, every dive off the cage, every powerbomb in the back of my neck was worth it. I said I’d go through any obstacle.
“Push Cody to finish his story, that’s what the fans wanted. Push Seth to stop being selfish. Some people are like, it’s just so you can get Seth at WrestleMania. Yeah, I just had to beat AJ Styles and I just had to put myself through hell while jet lagged, while this eardrum appears to be burst. Worth it. I did it for each and every one of you. We’re so close, so close. WrestleMania, we finish our own story and I finally get my moment.”
