Drew McIntyre made it clear that he wants to wrestle John Cena, and Cena acknowledged the challenge by posting a picture of Drew McIntyre to Instagram.
When speaking with Melissa Nathoo of On Demand Entertainment, McIntyre reiterated that he wants to wrestle John Cena in the near future. McIntyre said, “100% I hope it does happen. I’ve been around John since I was 22 years old. I just turned 36 last week and we’ve never had a significant singles match. We’ve actually never had any singles match, which blows my mind. We’ve been in tag matches together, multi-man matches together, but never had a singles match.”
Drew also firmly believes that this is one of the biggest matches that WWE could put on right now. He said “Where I’m at today career-wise, managing to reach the top in the industry after so many ups and downs and where John is at… he’s at another level right now. He’s conquered WWE and he’s conquering Hollywood now. He still loves WWE more than anything and wants to come back to help and have those big matches. There’s no bigger match as far as I’m concerned than John Cena vs. Drew McIntyre.”
Drew was also asked what the likelihood would be that he follows the likes of The Rock and John Cena to Hollywood. Drew said “I’ve only ever wanted to be in WWE. That was my dream and I’m living it right now. I’m going to do it as long as I can.”
