Time to fix the record books for Drew McIntyre.
McIntyre has been very vocal about his crushing loss to CM Punk at WWE Bad Blood, sometimes spinning it into a positive for himself and his motive in WWE.
Despite the fact that Punk has seemingly moved on from him, McIntyre has continued to insult and poke at Punk, even recently saying that he helped Punk earn the biggest contract of his entire life.
Now, in a new interview with The Scottish Sun Sport, McIntyre stated that he will take Punk out again if he gets in his way at the Royal Rumble.
“Yeah, I made it clear, if he gets in the way at the Royal Rumble, I’m going to take him out. I’m not going to actively target him right now because the truth is, I was trying to take him out for the benefit of everybody. Guy’s a cancer, he plays the part of a hero for the people so well but the truth is, it’s just all about himself. He doesn’t care and eventually the truth comes out, he’s a terrible person and is in it for himself and it affects everybody around him. It affects the locker room, affects the company just looking through history. I was trying to do that for everyone, my attitude now is, I’m not doing it for everybody. So when I get my chance, I’ll do it for me.”
After talking about his issues with Punk wearing Celtic F.C. merchandise, McIntyre came up with another excuse for his Hell In A Cell loss to Punk, blaming his fall on blood loss.
“He’s gonna get his. When he gets in my path, he’s going to get his but I have certain goals in mind now. Inevitably, he’s going to get taken out. The funny thing is, Seth and some guys have matches with him, he’s going to break again. People who are in the ring with him are going to take credit for it but it’s what happened at Hell In A Cell. I beat the hell out of him, I succumbed to blood loss. I didn’t get beaten by him, I got beaten by not enough blood left in my body’s that point. But, I damaged him badly and his body’s going to collapse on him eventually. It was me that done it, but as usual, someone else will get the credit for something I did. It’s just the way things go for Drew McIntyre."
