The former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre is one of the top stars of the company. His return to the company after being fired is nothing less than a fairytale. It is not often that the talents get the label of ‘future Hall of Famer’ but ‘The Scottish Warrior’ has earned it, that too from the WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin himself.
Drew McIntyre shares his thoughts on the matter
While speaking to Riju Dasgupta of Sportskeeda Wrestling, Drew McIntyre reacted to what Steve Austin said. McIntyre stated that he feels it is simply surreal that ‘The Texas Rattlesnake’ considers him a future WWE Hall Of Famer.
Here is what he said:
‘Well first of all it’s surreal to see somebody like ’˜Stone Cold’ Steve Austin to say such complimentary about myself and Sheamus about seeing us as future Hall of Fame superstars. If you get to know ’˜Stone Cold’ a little bit you know he doesn’t lie, he tells the truth from his perspective and that means the world because I know he meant it. It was also amazing to see him recently, he came to Reno, Nevada live event and close to where he lives.’Â
He watched the whole show and that was the coolest thing. You know when we get some of our older Superstars to come back, they’ll say hi and they’ll stick around for a bit and check it out. Steve is such a passionate wrestling fan. He sat down right at the monitor like he would have back in the day. He watched every single match, he gave advice to every that wanted advice and he stuck around right to the main event, which was myself and Sheamus in a Street Fight afterward he tried to pick his brain and he just told us, ’˜You all been doing it long enough, you’ve got this thing.’ And once again if he felt something he would have told us and that really met the world, but also just see his passion for this industry I admire that so much.’
McIntyre failed to capture the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship as he got defeated by Roman Reigns at WWE Clash At The Castle.
