If you want to know what a true “heel” character looks like in WWE, Drew McIntyre is the perfect example. After returning to the Raw episode right after Survivor Series, McIntyre has already made waves in the wrestling world.
Many wonder how he plays the villain role so perfectly. The answer? He often puts wrestling ahead of his family. Recently, this topic came up in an interview, and things got so heated that McIntyre walked out.
During his WWE break after Bad Blood, Drew McIntyre stayed off social media and enjoyed rare family time, something he hadn’t done in 17 years. However, few people checked on him while he was away.
Now that he’s back, Drew is frustrated with all of these situations and the constant attention he receives from online critics. Speaking at the Busted Open Holiday Party, McIntyre declared he’s done giving to wrestling and will now focus on taking what he deserves.
McIntyre opened up about his struggles, including missing important family events and the recent death of a close family member. He said, “I’ve missed birthdays, weddings, some funerals I should have been at. My mum passed, I went home for a couple of weeks and went straight back at work… I’m trying to keep it together and respect everyone who is sitting with me right now…
Drew McIntyre just dropped the mic and walked off the set after delivering some of the most real and unfiltered truth we’ve ever heard.

He added, “When I was gone for that 3 months I can count on one finger how many people checked in, ‘How are you doing Drew?’ It really opened my eyes.” Targeting online fans, Drew McIntyre said, “I tried to stay away from social media. I see things like someone cuts a one minute promo and ‘That’s the best promo of the year!’ ‘What have you done for me lately?’ The same old crap.”
The interview took a dramatic turn when McIntyre dropped an F-bomb, saying, “I don’t give a f**k about your opinion,” before throwing the microphone down and storming off the stage

He said, “Then I turned on Survivor Series and I saw Roman Reigns standing side by side with CM Punk and who was by their side? Sami, Jimmy, and Jey. Their stupid fingers in the air… That’s when I knew I was gonna take out Sami. That’s when I knew I was gonna take out Jey Uso.”
