Many fans were excited when Drew McIntyre won the Men's Royal Rumble on Sunday. But perhaps the biggest fan of Drew's victory was none other than WWE legend and Hollywood star The Rock.
The Rock took to the comments section of Instagram to state that he was very happy for Drew and say he's a big fan of "The Scottish Psychopath."

This isn't the first time The Rock has spoken highly of McIntyre. Back in July 2019, when asked who he believes is next Rock or John Cena, "The Great One" expressed his admiration for McIntyre.
"Personally, I like Drew McIntyre. I think he’s got a great look, a great build, and especially as he continues to hone in on his craft and connect with the audience, which is always the most important thing. That's it," he said.
McIntyre took notice of the praise last summer and had the following reply.
In all the conversation about the biggest movie of the Summer, I appreciate such high praise from The Great One. We could all learn a thing or two from his work ethic, “All it takes is all you got” @TheRock #HobbsAndShaw https://t.co/c8sJs6DCYZ
