Drew McIntyre Jokes The Only Thing That Gets More Engagement Than Him Is Rhea Ripley’s Ass, Ripley Says McIntyre Wasn’t Being Malicious

Appearing on Impaulsive with Logan Paul, Logan was praising McIntyre’s game on social media, saying that even he was worried about catching smoke from Drew.
Drew replied, “I’m here to take everybody out. It’s amazing to watch it grow. It’s unbelievable the power of social media. I learned being outside the company, specifically the last two years, the power of it and watching the platform grow. From an engagement perspective, the most powerful in the company besides Rhea Ripley’s ass. I’ve seen the numbers. These are facts.”
