“He really wanted to make a difference to the UK wrestling scene and the Scottish wrestling scene, and he did," said McIntyre. "He got to the top, he became ICW champion, and is a respected figure and always will be. He went out a champion. That’s how I like to remember Adrian. I still don’t quite believe it. I’ve not had a chance to go home, so I guess I’ve not really faced it myself. I remember his first training session. I remember driving to training one time, and him picking me up, because we’re both from Ayr, and crashing his car at Prestwick Airport through a fence, and us drinking afterwards and having a laugh."
