Summary

– McIntyre’s mic drop and viral tweet have sparked heated debates among fans

Drew McIntyre isn’t pulling punches when it comes to his career and his priorities. During a live appearance on the Busted Open Holiday Party on December 12, the Scottish Warrior gave an unfiltered look at his mindset, leaving fans stunned with a dramatic mic drop moment.

He also spoke candidly about the fleeting nature of fame in wrestling. “When I leave this industry, I won’t be one of those guys chasing that last paycheck or last shot of glory. When I leave and retire, I will have accomplished everything. When you’re gone, they move on. It sucks, but it’s true.”
