The Scottish Psychopath, known for his ability to ignite the crowd with his microphone skills, shared his thoughts on the epic confrontation that had fans on the edge of their seats.
The war of words between McIntyre, Punk, and Rollins was a highlight of the build-up to WrestleMania, with all three superstars delivering scathing promos that left fans eagerly anticipating their eventual showdowns.

Rumors swirled that if Punk had not been injured, he would have faced Rollins for the title in a dream match at WrestleMania. Instead, McIntyre earned the right to challenge Rollins for the championship, which he eventually won at the Grandest Stage of Them All. In a surprising turn of events, Damian Priest cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase to become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion just moments after McIntyre’s victory.

The 38-year-old superstar credits the confrontation with setting the stage for his eventual victory at WrestleMania and has sparked excitement for a potential singles match between him and Punk in the future.
With Seth Rollins currently absent from WWE TV since WrestleMania 40, fans are eagerly anticipating his return and the potential for a intense storyline to unfold between Punk and McIntyre. One thing is certain – the electrifying promo battle between these three WWE superstars has set the bar high for future rivalries, and fans can’t wait to see what’s next.
