Drew McIntyre speaks on the WWE return of CM Punk.
The Scottish Warrior was asked about the controversial Second City Saint during a recent interview on The Bump. McIntyre begins by saying he knows how big Punk has gotten and recognizes that his shocking return to the company is going to do great business.
I obviously recognize he’s big for business, he’s a huge name. He draws a lot of eyeballs, that’s very clear when you just look at the numbers. I’m a bigger picture person. I tend to use that criminology degree and look at, beyond all reasonable doubt, look at the evidence, and I’m not going to go into great details right now because now is not the time, but what I said on Raw is there are so few people on the current roster that have been on the same roster as him for years and years. I signed when I was 22, I was actually 21 when I signed, but I was on television when I was 22 in 2007. I spent years. I was around the person, I know the person. I know what he’s truly like. I’m aware. It’s cool. It does numbers.
That being said, McIntyre promises to “drop Punk” if the two ever cross paths on WWE programming.
That’s awesome for right now. I’m going to wait and see right now because I can’t control who gets signed and who doesn’t. I have stories, I’m going to keep them to myself, and in the future, if we cross paths, I ain’t the same guy I was in 2010. I’m a lot bigger, smarter, more experienced and I’ll drop his ass.
