Former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre is gunning for championship gold yet again. He aims to begin the brand new year with a title around his waist.
Last night on Monday Night Raw, The Scottish Warrior wrestled Jey Uso. Finally, Drew McIntyre raked Uso’s eyes and followed it with a Claymore to pick up the victory via pinfall.
Following the match, Adam Pearce and McIntyre were seen conversing backstage. Moments later, it was announced that on the January 1st episode of Raw, McIntyre would wrestle Seth Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
After Raw went off the air, the Scottish Warrior was interviewed by Jackie Redmond on Raw Talk. During the interview, Drew McIntyre claimed that he is feeling absolutely fantastic after beating Jey Uso and earning a shot at Rollins. He also stated that he has accomplished everyone’s goal in WWE, which is to win the World Title in the main event of WrestleMania.
“I’m feeling absolutely fantastic. I beat Jey Uso? Yes. But Jey, you know I’m not done with you. I will never be done with you. If you breathe, if you’re on Raw, there’s a target on your back. But you’re in the rear-view mirror. I’m focused on what’s important, the World Heavyweight Championship. Finishing this part of my story. Told Punk earlier, I don’t care about his story. Don’t care about Cody’s story. I’ve finished their goal. Everyone else’s goal. What should be their goal in WWE, main event WrestleMania, win the title, done it, check. The next story, win the World Heavyweight Championship with people actually there in the audience. Seth, the compassion is gone, the sympathy is gone, you’ve felt it yourself. I’ll do whatever it takes to start the year as World Heavyweight Champion,” Drew McIntyre said.
Will McIntyre dethrone Rollins?
