Former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre recently spoke to Brandon F. Walker for the Rasslin’ show. The Scottish Superstar discussed a number of topics during the show, including who he considers to be his greatest rival in WWE.
‘Thus far I think it’s Randy Orton” McIntyre began. “We spent four months with each other and that was my ultimate test of, ’˜Can I step up to Randy Orton’s level on the microphone, in the ring as a storyteller, and can I hang with the best in the game?’”
“And that was such an important development and stage for me” Drew McIntyre continued. “Keeping up with Randy and proving myself, and cementing myself at the top of the mountain.”

McIntyre would then go on to say that the feud between himself and Bobby Lashley may at some point surpass that with Orton. “But Lashley and I are so similar and are at similar levels, and are trying to pull each other up through our work.”
“And every time we get in there together it is easy” McIntyre added. “We know we can lay it in to each other any way we want. We can make people question do we like each other. And at times, we don’t. You can tell just by watching our matches sometimes on Monday Night RAW.”
“You know, you can put us in there with not as much time as a WrestleMania, but you know you’re going to get a hard-hitting and exciting match for the duration of Lashley vs. McIntyre together” Drew concluded. “And keeping that storyline progressing, and adding wrinkles, like Braun Strowman, it keeps things interesting.’
