Booker T Hopes To See The WWE Put The World Heavyweight Championship On Drew McIntyre At WrestleMania 40
Booker T wants to see Drew McIntyre win the big one again at WrestleMania.
In the men’s Elimination Chamber match in Perth, Australia. Drew McIntyre earned the opportunity to once again challenge for Seth Rollins’s WWE World Heavyweight Championship, this time at the grandest stage of them all, WrestleMania 40.
Booker T would go on to share his thoughts on the Hall of Fame Podcast about the win McIntyre had and the journey he’s had since the pandemic.
“I saw Drew McIntyre win in the Chamber and whatnot. It was only fitting for him to actually win it and move on. He’s put in so much work, his departure from WWE and in his return to WWE, finding himself, winning the championship in the pandemic era when there was no fans or anything like that. But Drew McIntyre, not one day did he phone it in or anything like that. He came to work every week. He went out there and performed in front of zero fans, and he did it in a grand fashion. There was a few guys throughout that pandemic era that really was able to make themselves in that moment, and I think Drew McIntyre was one of those guys,” Booker T said.
Co-host Brad Gilmore and Booker T both shared the same thoughts on McIntyre and what it would mean for the Scottish Psychopath to win the big one again, this time in front of a live crowd at WrestleMania.
“I hope they put the title on him too. Nothing against Seth. Seth has had an okay run. But it’s [has not been] a standout run, as far as Seth’s run. It hasn’t been a bad run or anything like that, but I do think it’s time for Drew McIntyre to get back in that position. I really don’t think we would have put Drew McIntyre in such a position where he had to work so hard to get back to it, to win a match like the Elimination Chamber, to go on and not win. So that’s just my thing. I hope to see Drew [win], and I’m a fan of Drew McIntyre as well,” McIntyre said.
Before he does battle with Rollins. McIntyre is set to collide once again with Jey Uso on the March 4 edition of Monday Night Raw.
