A top WWE star says he will beat The Rock on his doorstep to get the title off Roman Reigns.
At Clash At The Castle, Drew McIntyre challenged Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. However, Solo Sikoa made his main roster debut by helping Reigns retain over McIntyre in his home country.
Despite the way he lost, McIntyre has now turned his sights to Karrion Kross and Scarlett over on SmackDown.
Speaking with the Dallas Morning News, McIntyre was asked if he thought about competing in a regular match as opposed to the physical affairs on his recent schedule.
He answered:
“No [laughs]. I don’t think so. I suffer for the company, suffer from my art – constantly, it feels like. But that comes with the territory being the workhorse of WWE, being the conscience, I guess, of WWE. You ain’t gonna find Roman Reigns doing the schedule that I do. I keep the championship schedule. I’m happy to do it. I’m happy to do the media responsibilities. I’m happy to represent the company on the weekend live events. This is my dream. It’s a privilege to do it. And if it involves getting beat with chairs … still be involved in the strap match with Kross, who has managed to divert my attention away from the title, so be it. Even though he keeps attacking me from behind. If it’s not him attacking me, it’s his girl [Scarlett] low blowing me from behind. I’ll do what I have to do get through all these new challenges and get my way back to Roman.”
McIntyre continued on to bring up Roman Reigns and The Bloodline as well as what he was willing to do to become Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.
He said:
“Apparently, I’ll have to go through not just The Bloodline – because I did that prior to Clash at the Castle – then the elders and a new member [Solo Sikoa]. I’m going to have to literally go through the entire family like door to door. And I like The Rock a lot. It’s gonna pain me deeply when I go through the entire family, have to go to Hollywood, tap The Rock’s door and say, ‘I’m sorry, brother,’ then beat them him in his own doorstep because it’s the only way I’m gonna get that title off Roman.”
