Drew McIntyre wants to finish the story.
Drew McIntyre has been gaining momentum in recent weeks; he defeated Sami Zayn on the December 4 episode of WWE Raw, and he beat Jey Uso on December 11. WWE subsequently announced that McIntyre will challenge Seth Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship on the January 1 episode of WWE Raw.
Speaking on Raw Talk, McIntyre shared his thoughts about his upcoming title match.
“I’m feeling absolutely fantastic. I beat Jey Uso, yes. But Jey, you know I’m not done with you. I’ll never be done with you. If you breathe, if you’re on Raw, there’s a target on your back. But you’re in the rearview mirror. I’m focused on what’s important, the World Heavyweight Championship. Finishing this part of my story. Told Punk earlier, don’t care about his story, don’t care about Cody’s story. I’ve finished their goal, everyone else’s goal, what should be their goal in WWE, main-event WrestleMania, win the title. Done it, check. The next story, win the World Heavyweight Championship with people actually there in the audience. Seth, the compassion's gone, the sympathy’s gone. You felt it yourself. I’ll do whatever it takes to start the year as World Heavyweight Champion," McIntyre said.
