Mclntyre has been reflecting on the time he dedicates to his profession.
Drew McIntyre made his long-awaited return to WWE TV on this past Monday’s episode of RAW following a two-month absence after he suffered a loss to CM Punk inside Hell in a Cell at WWE Bad Blood.
Appearing on KWCH 12 Morning News, McIntyre was asked about his absence, to which the former WWE Champion revealed that he’s been reevaluating his priorities.
“My last match was a Hell in a Cell match, a very brutal match. I got hit in the head at one point and needed sixteen staples to close a wound at the top of my head. I suffered a family loss as well so I went back to Scotland to deal with that and re-evaluate my priorities and realize that I have probably given a bit too much to my profession, to my colleagues, and not enough to my family. I kind of realized I’ve been giving a bit too much for the past 17 years and it’s time to start taking a little more. My mentality is I’m going to take what’s mine, I’m going to beat up the people who deserve to get beat up,”

McIntyre isn’t currently advertised to appear on tonight’s episode of Monday Night RAW, but it’ll be interesting to see the fallout after he attacked Sami Zayn following last week’s main event with Seth Rollins.
As always, we’ll aim to provide any further updates on future plans for Drew Mclntyre as soon as we hear more.
