Drew McIntyre defeated Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 36 to win the WWE Championship. Drew was recently interviewed by Sports Illustrated and spoke about his big win.
During the interview, Drew was asked how Vince McMahon reacted backstage after the match. Here is what Drew said:
“He was happy for me. He knows the journey I’ve been through and how hard I’ve worked, and nobody works harder than Vince McMahon, so his respect means the world to me.
Triple H was there too, and he’s the reason I’m back in WWE. Both of them believed in me, and it was very special to hear them say they’re proud of how far I’ve come as a performer and a man.”
Drew also spoke about his plans for his Title reign:
“It’s been an incredible journey to get to the top and get the title, but this is when the hard work starts. WWE is still bringing original content. Our wrestlers and our crew behind the scenes worked so hard to make sure our fans were entertained during WrestleMania. We’re still bringing smiles to people’s faces. That’s fun during the easy times, but I’m going to make sure WWE is represented in the right way right now. It’s a tough time in the world and everyone is affected, so this is where I’ll step up and work even harder.
