Drew McIntyre has pitched a potential next WWE WrestleMania location.
With WrestleMania 42 set to take place in Las Vegas, Nevada and WrestleMania 43 scheduled for Saudi Arabia, ex-World Champion Drew McIntyre has opened up on Scotland being an ideal next destination for The Grandest Stage of them all.
Recently speaking to SportBible ahead of his WWE title match against Cody Rhodes, McIntyre discussed the possibility of his home country of Scotland hosting a future WrestleMania PLE. While The Scottish Warrior failed to defeat Rhodes tonight, he had made it clear that returning home as the Undisputed champion was one of his goals. Speaking to SportBible he said, “Itâ€s something Iâ€ve been wanting to do [return home with the title], I think I started talking about it in 2019, going into the Royal Rumble in 2020 when I won, that Iâ€m going to win the Rumble, win the title, get an open top bus, parade it around the UK as the only ever British champion.”
McIntyre further said, “I have the chance to get this title, pull off the big one on Saturday. I’ve got to overcome Codyâ€s politics and influence to make sure I win the big one.”
“Then Iâ€ll bring the title home, then we have ourselves a parade and take it to WrestleMania. Weâ€ve got places we can have WrestleMania. We can have it at Murrayfield, and everyone would travel, not just from in the UK. Then we get to check out the lovely scenery. Iâ€d love to actually see some of the scenery. I cannot wait to do media on top of Edinburgh Castle or something. Head to some of the football games, a few Rangers games, weâ€ll finally be back on form after a disastrous start to the season. Iâ€ll be right there, for one WrestleMania.â€
McIntyre last wrestled in Scotland at Clash At The Castle 2024, where he lost to Damian Priest. WWE will return there during the Road to the Royal Rumble tour in January, with one date set in Glasgow.
Drew McIntyre opens up about his bar fight team
In in recent interview on No-Contest Wrestling, Drew McIntyre revealed his bar fight team, which included the likes of Brock Lesnar, Cain Velasquez, and many more.
“Brock Lesnar popped in my head right away.Heâ€s the kinda guy, Iâ€ve been in the ring with certain guys like Big Show, Mark Henry and the likes where they grab you and youâ€re like, ‘They could do anything with me right now, but if you let me go Iâ€m gonna run away.†Brock can chase you down and catch you. So letâ€s go Brock. Cain Velasquez was there for a minute. Heâ€s one of the only few humans that could beat up Brock, so letâ€s go Velasquez. He was there I remember in Saudi one time, I was chatting with him for a minute.“
