Drew McIntyre reflects on CM Punk‘s return to WWE and what it’s meant for his career.
WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre recently spoke with Mike Johnson of PWInsider. When asked if he could have ever imagined CM Punk’s return to the company working out as well as it did for him, McIntyre said he was annoyed at first but is also a professional and knew that he could make the story work if given the chance to do so.
“I mean, if I had a chance to really think about it, initially, I was pretty annoyed,” Drew McIntyre admitted. “But I understand business and I understand why it was done. But I found it interesting that everybody started going, oh, it’s obviously going to be this, or obviously going to be this guy. I was sitting there thinking, there’s a lot of real history here. A lot of real feelings I’ve got and if I get the opportunity, I know we could tell the most compelling story of all. Because no matter my real feelings, I’m still a professional, you know?
“He’s still a professional, and we’ve been given the platform to show the world what we can truly do creatively. Our creative team, obviously led by Triple H, is very much, you go out there and you take this creative as far as you can take it. You make people feel, you make people believe. And it’s not so hard to make people believe when you truly feel what’s good on screen, inside and out.”
