Drew McIntyre Breaks Silence About His Absence After WrestleMania

By The Spotlight StaffJuly 27, 2023
Drew McIntyre Breaks Silence About His Absence After WrestleMania

Last April, Drew McIntyre faced Gunther and Sheamus in a Triple Threat match for the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 39. McIntyre then took time off from WWE and made his return at Money in the Bank PLE earlier this month.

Many rumors circulated on social media during McIntyre’s absence. Some news outlets reported that McIntyre wasn’t on good terms with the company. Another media outlet noted that his contract will expire in the first quarter of 2024. At the time, The Scottish Warrior didn’t make any comment regarding his absence.

During an interview with TMZ Sports, Drew McIntyre said some reports about him are true.

“It was cool, getting the break. There were a lot of rumors and headlines on the internet when I was out, probably like 50 different things. It was amazing all the stories about me out there. When you’re not, you’re not on tv, people talk, and you know, there might have been some smoke to some fire with a few of them, but it was nice. People were talking about me when I wasn’t there, but I did have to get some things fixed physically. Unlike injuries, I’ve had in the past. There was no rehab involved, so I was actually able to enjoy my time at home, work on some outside projects, spend time with the Mrs and the cat, and take a step outside of the bubble and kind of get perspective again.”
