WWE champion Drew McIntyre is planning to head home to the United Kingdom as soon as possible to show off his belt.
The 35-year-old Scot became the first Briton to win the championship when he pinned Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 36 back in March.
Born in Ayr, McIntyre – real name Drew Galloway – worked for the WWE for seven years before being sacked. He returned in 2017 after three years on the independent scene.
McIntyre’s rise to the top can be surmised by the fact he is the number one card in the WWE’s new Slam Attax Reloaded trading card game.
“I never get tired on my face to do with anything to do with WWE,” he said.
“The coolest thing of all this time, it still blows my mind, is my card is the ‘101 card’ which means it is completely unbeatable – it is the kind of thing a (Hulk) Hogan or Rock or (Stone Cole Steve) Austin would have got in the past or like a Brock Lesnar perhaps.
“Now that card is for myself and for the UK so that is just like a dream come true for me.”
