Drew McIntyre continued to call the 37-year-old WWE RAW superstar “crazy” for the way he wrestles.
Money in the Bank 2023 emanated last Saturday night from the 02 Arena in London. Gunter defended the Intercontinental Championship against Matt Riddle at the Super Live event and emerged victorious. Ring General and Imperium were attacking The Original Bro in the weeks leading up to the match, and Riddle entered the match with an injured ankle. Gunther targeted it and Riddle took advantage after getting him into an ankle lock.
After the match, Imperium went for an attack, but was made the save by Drew McIntyre. McIntyre drew Giovanni Vinci with Claymore and spoke with the Intercontinental Champion after the match. McIntyre and Riddle will team up to battle Imperium next week on the red brand.
talking on WWE’s The Bumpdescribed Scottish veteran Matt Riddle as “crazy” for wrestling barefoot, stating that he could never pull it off.
“I don’t know how he doesn’t break his toes and break his ankle every week. I have to tape my ankles, and then put them in my wrestling boots to make sure they’re okay. It’s absolutely crazy,” McIntyre said. (From 53:27 – 53:36)
Drew McIntyre makes fun of every faction in WWE
Drew McIntyre returned to the company at WWE Money in the Bank 2023 and got an incredible reaction from the UK crowd in London.
It was his first appearance since WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles. Gunther successfully defended the Intercontinental Championship against McIntyre and Sheamus in a triple threat match at WWE’s biggest show of the year.
during the same interview day WWE’s The BumpMcIntyre said he’d been catching up on the company’s TV show while he was away and wondered where all those factions came from.
“I’m just curious in general, I’ve been watching the product so clearly since I was gone. When did all the gang wars start? All these factions across RAW, SmackDown and NXT, it seems like nobody can get the job done themselves anymore.” (from 53:52 – 54:05)
Drew McIntyre was rumored to have had a contract dispute during his hiatus, but Triple H recently claimed at the post-Money in the Bank press conference that he wants to keep the former champion in WWE until he retires.
It will be interesting to see what the future holds for McIntyre and whether he will be able to dethrone Gunter as he is said to be closing in on the honky tonk man’s record for longest reign of the Intercontinental Champion.
