Former two times WWE world champion Drew McIntyre who is also a former two times WWE Tag Team Champion recently revealed that he was originally set to win this SmackDown Money in the Bank ladder match in 2010. He also said that things can go really frustrating when it changes quickly.
The Smackdown Money in the Bank ladder match in 2010 was originally won by the Big Red Machine Kane. Back in the time WWE used to organise to separate Money in the Bank ladder matches one for RAW and the other one was for SmackDown. The concept was really good but slowly WWE failed to book the brand extension properly and there was no brand separation soon after that.
Drew McIntyre Reveals He Was Originally Set To Win Smackdown Money In The Bank 2010
Kane won his first World Championship in 1998 after he defeated Stone Cold Steve Austin at the king of the Ring pay per view event of the mentioned year. It was the First Blood match, such a type of match is impossible now a days because of the PG product of WWE. After that, it took a decade for Kane to win the ECW Championship, WWE does consider it as a world title. That means Ezekiel Jackson is a world champion as well.
After two years, the long awaited World Championship push for Kane arrived finally. In 2010, he won the Smackdown Money in the Bank ladder match and cashed it in on the same night on Rey Mysterio to become the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. This one of came as a world champion is quite better than his first Championship run which lasted only one day. He defeated Rey Mysterio and the Undertaker in two separate feuds before finally dropping the title to Edge.
Drew McIntyre who is a former two times WWE Tag Team Champion recently spoke to Inside The Ropes where he revealed that he was originally set to win this SmackDown Money in the Bank ladder match in 2010. He also said that things can go really frustrating when it changes quickly. He said;
“I mean, I guess there must have been. There’s nothing that jumps out to me as big as like the stuff I heard during my first run, like winning Money In The Bank one time until 8pm and it changing to Kane the night he beat Rey Mysterio for the title. But also looking back and understanding why certain things were done from a business perspective.”
“In WWE, things are changing all the time and we’re every single week, nonstop, and it’s frustrating as it is at the time when and things don’t happen that you really want to happen, I can look back now and say it, ‘My goodness, I’m glad that never happened then or that never happened there and or I wouldn’t have been ready for this’ – and things happen for a reason.
“And the stuff in my life that happened that I’ve been like, ‘My goodness, that’s the worst thing ever.’ I can look at now and go. ‘That was a blessing, and it toughened me up and made me the man I am today.’”
