Drew McIntyre’s elimination from the 2025 men’s Royal Rumble reportedly did not go according to plan.
The former world champion entered the Rumble at #17 and survived till all 30 participants had entered the match. Right after the final entrance of Logan Paul, however, he was eliminated from the bout by Damian Priest.
PWInsider is now reporting that something went wrong with McIntyre’s elimination at the show and the wrestling veteran was not very happy about it.
According to them, Drew was “screaming and cursing” that “someone had to get their moves in” at the expense of other stories in the match when he got back to the gorilla position.
The Scottish Psychopath did not stick around for long after this. Drew McIntyre reportedly ‘loudly stormed out of’ the Lucas Oil Stadium before the conclusion of the main event.
The former Royal Rumble winner has carved a unique persona for himself with his out-of-the-box ideas and incredible character work over the past couple of years, so everything related to him has to be taken with a grain of salt.
Though if the reports are true, we’ll have to see how the management handles the situation and where McIntyre ends up on the WrestleMania card.
