Drew McIntyre Reveals What Was Important About Re-Signing With WWE

Drew McIntyre recently signed a new deal with WWE, ending months of speculation about the ‘Scottish Psychopath’s future.

With his strong push through WrestleMania XL and positioning as one of the top heels in the company, there was little doubt in fans’ minds that Drew was set to depart WWE, and during an interview with Mail Sport, ‘Irn Dru’ revealed what was important about re-signing with the organisation:

“Being happy,” said McIntyre “At this point of my life and career all that matters is I'm happy and I can get time with my family that I've not had for 20 years.

“When it comes to creative, I can only control the controllable. As we've seen, almost for the past couple of years, there's been a lot more leeway given to talent, a lot more collaboration. It's been awesome, as you can see across the board. A lot of people breaking out and an opportunity for myself to show what I can truly do. I know with that it's always going to be a case of roll with the punches, peaks and valleys, but there's more to it than just that.

“We'll see what the future holds, I just know that I'm in my prime and Drew McIntyre is not going to stop wrestling.”

McIntyre is currently out of action recovering from injury, but his simmering feud with CM Punk is surely set to be one of WWE’s premier feuds when both stars return to the ring.
