Drew McIntyre talks Jack Perry photo.
McIntyre set the internet on fire on July 25, as he posted a photo with Jack Perry on social media. The picture was deleted less than an hour after it was posted, allowing many fans to speculate on if WWE or CM Punk himself asked McIntyre to take the post down.
While speaking to Chris Van Vliet for a new interview, McIntyre talked about how he met with Perry and his girlfriend, Anna Jay, on a flight.
“No, I was flying to LA and they just did a show the night before. I saw Roderick Strong at the airport, a buddy of mine, and we got to catch up which was awesome. He was headed to an ROH show I believe. Then on the flight, I just seen Jack. Had a little chat with him and his misses and we snapped a picture and the internet had a freaking meltdown, it was hilarious. I think it lasted 45 minutes. The numbers I heard were like two million impressions or something insane for 45 minutes. It was pretty wild, people enjoyed that. I’m always dancing on that line on what’s acceptable and not acceptable, making people question things.”
McIntyre went on to state that he'll never reveal if he chose to remove the post on his own.
“[The line is] probably back 100 yards that way. Yeah, I just do what was fun. Did someone tell me, didn’t some tell me, was it by design, did I choose to remove it? I’ll never answer that question because I love people asking questions.”
