Drew McIntyre reveals his bar fight team

Drew McIntyre reveals his bar fight team, Brock Lesnar and more stars named

Drew McIntyre has revealed his star-studded bar fight team.

One of the hardest-hitting strikers in the industry, McIntyre recently appeared in an interview on No-Contest Wrestling where he revealed his dream bar-fight team. Mentioning former UFC stars Brock Lesnar and Cain Velasquez, McIntyre also surprisingly added Hornswoggle into the mix.

Brock Lesnar popped in my head right away. He’s the kinda guy, I’ve been in the ring with certain guys like Big Show, Mark Henry and the likes where they grab you and you’re like, ‘They could do anything with me right now, but if you let me go I’m gonna run away.’ Brock can chase you down and catch you.

He further said,

So let’s go Brock. Cain Velasquez was there for a minute. He’s one of the only few humans that could beat up Brock, so let’s go Velasquez. He was there I remember in Saudi one time, I was chatting with him for a minute.

Haku. It’s almost like a given, but the funny thing is, if you get to know him, you get to meet him, he’s the nicest guy in the world. It’s always the nicest guys. Like me, I’m the nicest guy in the world, and I always come up in these conversations as one of the tough guys backstage, because it’s the nice guys you’ve gotta watch out for.

So we’ve got Brock, Velasquez, Haku, do we need someone to sacrifice? Hornswoggle! That would make some of the boys happy because he drove some of the boys mental. I always got on great with him, but he drove some of the boys mental and they would end up kicking his a**, and you know what, it was totally justified them kicking his a**. So we’ll sacrifice Swoggle while the rest of us beat everyone else’s ass, because who’s beating that team?

Further in the interview, McIntyre also opened up about joining NJPW in 2017 prior to his WWE return.

Drew McIntyre almost joined NJPW before WWE return

A part of the WWE roster since 2007, McIntyre parted ways with it in 2014, before making his shocking return in 2017. Soon enough, the Scottish Warrior transitioned into one of the most popular names on the roster. Boasting impeccable in-ring and mic skills, McIntyre recently revealed how he had almost joined NJPW before his WWE return.

Then in 2017, before I returned to WWE, I was ready to go to New Japan at that point, that’s where my head was at. I spoke to the right people to start having serious conversations, and Regal told me, you gotta talk to Hunter first, gotta talk to Paul first. And one minute into that conversation, I knew it was time to come back.
