WWE superstar Drew McIntyre appeared on the No-Contest Wrestling podcast earlier this week where he covered a wide variety of topics. Towards the end of the interview, the hosts O'Shea Jackson Jr. & TJ Jefferson noted that McIntyre has a reputation of being a legitimate tough guy backstage and they asked him a hypothetical question on which four other wrestlers (from any era) he would pick to accompany him if he was involved in a bar fight. Here's what Drew had to say:
"Brock Lesnar popped in my head right away. He’s the kinda guy, I’ve been in the ring with certain guys like Big Show, Mark Henry and the likes where they grab you and you’re like, ‘They could do anything with me right now, but if you let me go I’m gonna run away.’ Brock can chase you down and catch you."
"So let’s go yeah...Brock. (Cain) Velasquez was there for a minute. He’s one of the only few humans that could beat up Brock, so let’s go Velasquez. He was there I remember in Saudi one time, I was chatting with him for a minute."
"Haku. It’s almost like a given, but the funny thing is, if you get to know him, you get to meet him, he’s the nicest guy in the world. It’s always the nicest guys. Like me, I’m the nicest guy in the world, and I always come up in these conversations as one of the tough guys backstage, because it’s the nice guys you’ve gotta watch out for."
"So we’ve got Brock, Velasquez, Haku...do we need someone to sacrifice? Hornswoggle! That would make some of the boys happy because he drove some of the boys mental. I always got on great with him, but he drove some of the boys mental and they would end up kicking his arse, and you know what, it was totally justified them kicking his arse. So we’ll sacrifice Swoggle while the rest of us beat everyone else’s arse, because who’s beating that team?"
