"One of the greatest Mania matches of all time" - Drew McIntyre reflects on the best match of his WWE career
Drew McIntyre has shared that his match at WrestleMania 39 was probably the best match of his career. He collided with Gunther and Sheamus for the Intercontinental Championship during the event.
The bout received rave reviews from fans and pundits, with many people calling it the best triple-threat match of all time. The Ring General entered the match as the I.C. Champion and left with the title still in his possession. He lost it this year to Sami Zayn at The Grandest Stage of Them All.
During a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet, Drew McIntyre spoke about facing Sheamus and Gunther at WrestleMania 39. He said it's probably the best match he's ever had.
“I’d say bell to bell, the fact that it was at WrestleMania that could be the best match, probably is the best match of my career. I mean, how can you top being at WrestleMania, having a match that people say is one of the greatest Mania matches of all time, but perhaps the greatest Triple Threat of all time, and also the history I have with Sheamus? For the past 20 years, in the ring and out the ring, everything we’ve gone through together, and then adding Gunther, was somebody who’s just very similar to us, such an incredible physical in-ring talent," said McIntyre.
