Drew McIntyre remained a prominent figure in the WWE for the past several years. He’s also the one to have carried the company during the tough COVID-19 pandemic era. Being a fan-favorite name, WWE kept him as one of the most protected TV characters on TV until the latest heel-turn happened where he already went through a couple of unsuccessful World Heavyweight Championship defenses.
Opening up about his experiences inside WWE Hell in a Cell matches Drew McIntyre revealed that this structure is something that brings out the ultimate weakness inside him. Speaking with The West Sport, he also shared his disdain for the grueling structure. On that note, she also shared a scary bump off the side of the structure that’s been unforgettable for him.
“I was halfway up, but you know I’m 6′ 7″ with my wrestling boots on, so I’m looking back as before I fell an additional 7 foot nearly. So falling 17 foot through a table, and you got a table can break your fall. I’m not going to suggest this for anybody, but you know gravity is a hell of a thing, and you weight 280 [pounds], you pick up speed and it was the worst thing my career.” (quotes courtesy Wrestling INC)
