Drew McIntyre also revealed in the interview that he and Sheamus had set their hearts on having a singles match against each other at WrestleMania, which they accomplished in a way earlier this year.

“It was awesome to have that triple threat. Sheamus and I always dreamed of the singles match at Mania, and we basically had that, that was the story of the match,” said McIntyre. 

At WrestleMania 39, GUNTHER put his Intercontinental Championship on the line against both McIntyre and Sheamus, and retained his title in what was a physical, brutal match. McIntyre is happy that he and Sheamus had their WrestleMania moment, even if neither of them could dethrone GUNTHER.

“How the finish came around was our personal issue, Sheamus and I, came to a head so much we were just fighting each other for about 10 straight minutes with the Brogues and Claymores and me diving over the top and beating the hell out of each other, forgetting there’s the undefeated Austrian champion in the outside and he slid in, took advantage, won the match as he should have because of the stipulation of a triple threat. So it was cool that we had that time to have that singles match,” said the Scotsman.

McIntyre will have another shot at GUNTHER’s Intercontinental title at SummerSlam, which is expected to be another hard-hitting match between the two.
