Drew McIntyre Talks Extreme Rules And Previously Teaming With Dolph Ziggler

Drew McIntyre recently spoke with The New York Post before his upcoming match against Dolph Ziggler at The Horror Show at Extreme Rules. During the interview, McIntyre talked about the upcoming match, and also spoke about previously teaming up with Dolph Ziggler during their time in WWE. Check out some of the highlights below:

On his upcoming match at Extreme Rules: 

I know it’s going to be unique. I guarantee it’s something that we’ve never seen before because Dolph is a very smart person. He knows that he can’t match up to me physically, so he’s going to try to play those mind games. We saw it with bringing out Heath (Slater) to try and get inside my head.

Whatever stipulation Dolph picks at “The Horror Show at Extreme Rules” is gonna be something that’s going to be really difficult for Drew McIntyre to overcome. If he picks a weapons match he knows already I am the weapon. He’s not going to pick a weapons match. It’s going to be something so outside the box that I got to be ready for it, and he’s probably not going to announce it ’til the night.

On previously teaming up with Ziggler: 

It was the perfect way to come back to “Monday Night Raw,” being in a team with Dolph. We have a lot of history together. We were in FCW together, we were on “SmackDown” together trying to figure things out when the youth initiative was starting and we were trying to get newer talent over. Dolph and I were trying to navigate the waters at the time.

He’s been here consistently for about 15 years because he’s figured out how to navigate the waters of WWE during the good times and bad. So it was certainly a great learning experience, backstage kind of getting inside Dolph’s head and also on TV. We both think the same way, we both have a huge passion for this industry. I could not think of any better way to come in than with Dolph. And to be honest, I think we got it cut short. There was a lot more left with Dolph and I.
