On a recent edition of his “Kliq This” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash lavished praise on Drew McIntyre’s heel character work on the Road To WrestleMania 40.
Nash said, “For me, Drew has ratcheted up the most because, think about it like [this]: six weeks ago, we were sitting here going, ‘How does he get the giant sword from town to town?’ And then the next thing you know, he’s like, ‘I’m not f*****g CM Punk,’ and then he sits down Indian style and says, ‘Don’t be looking up my skirt.’ And I’m just like, ‘I actually like — This is Drew.’ Drew, for the first time, is playing Drew, you know? He’s not the Scottish lad, he’s f*****g Drew. He just happens to be born and raised in Scotland. Anytime they tried to do that — I used to love when Sheamus was just Sheamus.”
McIntyre will challenge Seth Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 40 (Night Two) next month in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
