WWE Star Admits It Would’ve Been Logical To Add Him To WrestleMania 41 Night 1 Main Event

WWE

A WWE star believes it would’ve been logical for him to be added to the CM Punk vs Roman Reigns vs Seth Rollins WrestleMania 41 main event.

It has now been confirmed that Drew McIntyre will face Damian Priest at the April 19-20 event.

During an interview on the Getting Over podcast, the host argued that it would’ve been logical for McIntyre to be added to the WrestleMania 41 Night 1 main event, given his history with all of the competitors in the bout.

McIntyre responded:

“Yeah, it would have 100 percent been logical for all the reasons you just mentioned. You know, doing the Bloodline hunter thing which, you know, we kind of come back to. That’s just an ongoing story but, would have been nice to get there for WrestleMania and you mention CM Punk.

“Couldn’t be anymore hatred there than there already is and we can’t take it any further currently in a singles situation so it would have to be wanting to be that main event and preventing him from getting his dream in that main event. Seth (Rollins) and I, non-stop feuding over the years.

“World Title match, WrestleMania last year and with Paul Heyman, as I mentioned in that story, I guess I will say things in my own fun, little way, I referred to myself as the daddy of The Bloodline but, when I broke it down so everyone could understand, it was, I’m the one that beat Brock Lesnar, I’m the one that sent Heyman off into the ocean and it was Roman (Reigns) who had to rescue him from obscurity because I sent him there which led to The Bloodline, led to all the horrible things, the reign of terror that happened to me and multiple other people who if I didn’t win that match, would be in the position we’re in now.

“Would that have happened? You know, we’ll never know and Roman’s always been my kryptonite. I’ve never been able to get that win over him, no matter how many big matches we have had.”

Addressing fans who believe he should be in a different match at WWE WrestleMania 41, Drew McIntyre said:

“I appreciate all the fans out there who felt like, ‘Hey, Drew should be in to a title match or this match’ and did some fantasy booking on my behalf and based on my work over the last couple of years, I’ve been able to show what I’m truly capable of when I’m unleashed.

“I mean, that’s thanks to who’s obviously leading the creative right now and just letting a lot of people loose who he can trust to be themselves and take it as far as they can go creatively on television and off television. I’m on 24/7. So yeah, I really did appreciate that.

“At the same time, I guess there’s only so many spots at the top of the card. I did question why I talked about Roman (Reigns) for three months and it didn’t really go anywhere but, I don’t make the decisions of what the final matches are and I was fully aware there is a year-long storyline with Damian Priest and I and that has not been told yet.

“Beginning at WrestleMania last year and we finally have the chance to start telling on TV — or I told for the past month and Priest finally had his little say back this week where people finally realized, oh, okay, wow. This has been going on this entire time.”
