WrestleMania 40 brought a whirlwind of emotions for Drew McIntyre on Sunday, as he experienced the highs of winning and the lows of losing the World Heavyweight Championship within a matter of minutes.
Breaking his silence, McIntyre offered a succinct yet impactful response to the dramatic turn of events.
Following his hard-fought victory over Seth Rollins in a fiercely contested match, McIntyre found himself embroiled in a confrontation with CM Punk, leading to a pivotal moment.
Standing tall on the announcer’s table, McIntyre’s taunting of Punk proved costly as he fell victim to an unexpected attack, setting the stage for Damian Priest’s opportunistic cash-in.
With the Money in the Bank contract in play, Priest seized the moment, unleashing a devastating South of Heaven Chokeslam on McIntyre to secure the World Heavyweight Championship and bring McIntyre’s reign to an abrupt end.
Moments after the stunning defeat, McIntyre took to X (formerly Twitter), echoing the frustration and disappointment of many fans with a single, explicit F-word.
The future for McIntyre remains uncertain in the aftermath of WrestleMania 40.
Should he choose to continue his journey in WWE, anticipation mounts for a potential rematch with Priest as McIntyre seeks redemption and aims to reclaim the championship.
Speculation arises about a potential showdown in McIntyre’s homeland, setting the stage for an electrifying clash at Clash at the Castle in June.
