Drew McIntyre remains determined to embarrass CM Punk.
The feud between Drew McIntyre and CM Punk has continued to heat up since WWE WrestleMania XL. The two foes have taken shots at each other time and again in recent months, though Punk remains sidelined with a torn triceps. Meanwhile, McIntyre will challenge Damian Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship at WWE Clash at the Castle.
Drew McIntyre competed in a dark match after the May 31 episode of WWE SmackDown and cut a promo for the live crowd. He looked forward to WWE Clash at the Castle and noted that he would give Punk a title shot after he won. (Clip courtesy of @TJH_7 on X)
"When I win the title, I’ll offer him a title match. His ego is so big, he will say ‘yes’ to the title match, social media will freak out, tickets will fly, there will be a buzz you’ve never seen. Punk and I will be in this ring, eye to eye with each other. The bell will ring, and then I’ll embarrass him worse than be embarrassed himself in the UFC and we’ll move on," McIntyre said.
