“Drew McIntyre Nukes WWE Roster & CM Punk: ‘85% Don’t Even Belong Here!’”
Drew McIntyre just lit a fire under the entire WWE locker room—and then poured gasoline on it. In a brutally honest rant, “The Scottish Warrior” claimed over 80% of the roster isn’t up to par and told them exactly what they need to do: “Get in the damn gym.”
Appearing on the Huge Pop Podcast with Donnie DaSilva and Jimmy Korderas, McIntyre didn’t hold back. While he says he’s not expecting everyone to look like a chiseled action figure, he insists WWE superstars should at least look like athletes. Quoting The Undertaker, he reminded them, “Don’t play the wrestler—be the wrestler.”
And then came the number that shocked fans—McIntyre says “85 percent, maybe 82 percent” of the current roster wouldn’t even make the cut in his book.
CM Punk Back in the Crosshairs
The feud might be over, but the shade is still flying. Months after their last clash, McIntyre ripped into CM Punk again—this time mocking Bret Hart’s praise of Punk as “the best wrestler today.” Drew’s response? “He’s the opposite of the Excellence of Execution.”
McIntyre accused Punk of sloppy execution in the ring, saying the only reason fans still cheer is because of his mic skills, not his wrestling.
The Villain Era Continues
After blindsiding Cody Rhodes last week, McIntyre will be on SmackDown to explain his actions—and probably stir up even more chaos. Love him or hate him, Drew McIntyre has made one thing clear: he’s here to shake up WWE, and nobody is safe.
If you want, I can also give this a shorter, punchier tabloid-style rewrite that’s perfect for social media hooks. That would make it even more viral.
