Drew McIntyre isn’t happy about the lack of title opportunities at WrestleMania 41.
The big Scot isn’t one to keep his frustrations to himself. Ever since losing to Roman Reigns in the main event of Clash at the Castle 2023, McIntyre has openly expressed his resentment against his opponents and the situations his rivalries have put him in.
Currently, McIntyre is engaged in a feud with Damian Priest, with a match between them anticipated at WrestleMania 41.This rivalry stems from past incidents, including Priest eliminating McIntyre from the Royal Rumble and cashing in on him at last year’s WrestleMania.
What Did Drew McIntyre Say About Not Being In A Title Match At WWE WrestleMania 41?
In an interview with The Daily Star, McIntyre was asked about the possibility of facing Priest at WrestleMania 41, which appears to be WWE’s current creative direction.
“We’ve still got six weeks until Mania and anything can change in that time. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t p****d off at not being in one of the title matches after the 2024 I had, but it’s just because I’m so highly competitive and sometimes, you know, there’s only a few spots.
“I appreciated when the fans reaction was, oh my goodness, it’s Priest and Drew, there’s nothing there. I’m like bloody hell, give us a chance to tell the story. The thing with Priest has been going on since last year’s WrestleMania when he cashed in on me after I was assaulted by Punk.
“He doesn’t know how to succeed unless it is at my expense. Elimination Chamber I claymore Cena. Instead of going ‘I’ll let Drew pin Cena first’, he eliminates me.
“It’s the only way he knows how to succeed because he is a vulture. A parasite. A big emo vulture. Finally, he’s got my attention because they’ve got nothing else.
“I stomped him in his big stupid head last week and if he wants to keep coming back for more, if it goes all the way to Mania, it’s a year in the making story and he deserves the biggest stage of all to get his stupid looking arse kicked.”
