VIDEO: Drew McIntyre teases himself as potential Wrestlemania 37 opponent for new WWE Champion Bobby Lashley
During this week's edition of Raw Talk, Drew McIntyre shared his honest thoughts on Bobby Lashley being crowned as the new WWE Champion.
It was indeed a 'hero' moment for Bobby Lashley on this week's Monday Night Raw as he finally won his first WWE Championship, which was 17 years in the making. While The Miz was on the losing side, The A-Lister finally got a taste of his own medicine as he and The All Mighty had conspired against former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre during Elimination Chamber 2021 with a post-match beatdown and shocking MITB briefcase cash in.
During an appearance on this week's Raw Talk, when The Scottish Psychopath was asked by Kayla Braxton, with R-Truth in tow, how it feels to be a "former" WWE Champion, McIntyre honestly revealed, "...It's weird. Really weird. I've spent the year as WWE Champion. I had very clear goals in my head of making it from last WrestleMania, aside a three-week blip, all the way through to this year's WrestleMania as WWE Champion... Miz and Lashley screwed that up but there's no way I'm not going to work my way into that main event of WrestleMania. I don't care what I have to do. I've proved time and time again; Drew McIntyre will do the impossible."
On what his reaction was to Lashley defeating Miz and being crowned as the new WWE Champion on Raw, Drew confessed, "I mean, if I was in a place of betting on the match, I certainly would have bet everything on Lashley. He's worked hard for it. The man is an absolute animal in every possible way, in the gym, in the ring. I've faced him in the past. He's earned this moment. And the idea of Drew McIntyre vs. Lashley is pretty big for me. It feels like a significant match for Raw. And, if it happens at the biggest stage of all [Wrestlemania 37], that'd be just fine with me."
Shedding light on his own Raw match against former best friend Sheamus, which Drew won tooth and nail with a Claymore Kick, the 35-year-old wrestler also had some free advice to give to the new champ. "I'm going to give a piece of advice to Lashley, though, as somebody who has been champion for a very long time. There's a lot of pressures that come with being a champion. Miz found them pretty quick. I'm sure he was awake every single night after he screwed me out of the title. Cold sweats, waking up, phone ringing, jumping. Tonight, he tried to figure out a way to get out of the match. Lashley is not going to be worried about the physical aspect like Miz was but you surround yourself with a bunch of associates, a bunch of "friends" that get a little bit jealous. Suddenly, the friends want what you got and that brings me to my former best friend Sheamus. So, just watch your buddies, Lashley. Bit of free advice," McIntyre concluded, possibly hinting at a future collision between Bobby and his The Hurt Business mate MVP.
