Drew McIntyre suffered the same fate as his adversary, CM Punk, as he got injured at WrestleMania XL. According to the reports, he suffered a badly hyperextended elbow and appeared to have even wrestled while being injured. 

In the ongoing UK house show, Drew McIntyre disclosed his injury while taking another shot at The Best in the World. He stated that, unlike CM Punk, he was wrestling even though he was injured. McIntyre wrestled Jey Uso in a singles match but ended up losing.

The Scottish Warrior wrestled against Seth Rollins on Night 2 of WrestleMania XL and defeated him. However, after becoming champion, he mocked the injured Punk, who was commentating on their match. That was a bad idea, as Damian Priest cashed in his MITB contract and became the new World Heavyweight Champion thanks to Punk’s distraction. 

Recently, he lost a chance to fight Priest for the title, as The Second City Saint once again cost him the match. It will be interesting to see his reaction after being robbed of another opportunity to win the title. 

Fans expressed their opinion on Drew McIntyre wrestling even after suffering a serious injury

The wrestling fans had their say when the news of Drew McIntyre’s injury surfaced online. Some fans wished for him to get well soon, and others trolled him for making fun of other superstars’ injuries.

One fan said the 38-year-old got his karma for mocking Punk’s injury. Other fans expressed their disappointment with the top stars like Rollins, Punk, and now McIntyre all getting injured. Here are some of the top reactions from fans: 

One user wished for The Scottish Warrior to fully recover before the Clash at the Castle event so that he could become champion once again. Other fans appreciated his dedication and passion for the wrestling business. Some fans even made a bold claim by saying McIntyre would become a better champion than Cody Rhodes. Overall, the fans’ reactions were pretty mixed.
