Drew McIntyre Comments On WrestleMania 37 Being Held On His Hometown
Recently, WWE announced the dates and venues of next three WrestleMania event. This year’s WrestleMania will be held at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay, Florida as two night event.
The WWE Champion Drew McIntyre recently had an interview with Fox 13 News and commented on WrestleMania 37 event. He said that last year it was disappointment for him because the show takes place at Tampa Bay, which is considered by him as his American Hometown.
Now, it was take two as WrestleMania is coming to Raymond James Stadium and we will have limited capacity of audience to the arena and he was really excited.
“Last year it was very disappointing for me personally, you know? Tampa’s my American hometown. I’ve spent 13 years here, I was in the main event fighting for the WWE Title, supposed to be 90,000 people there and we did it in front of nobody in the Performance Center but I’m very proud of it. We gave everybody in the world an escape during the most difficult of times. That’s why I was so excited to find out we get a ‘Take Two!’ this year. The Raymond James Stadium, from what I hear, we are going to have a limited capacity. You know, keep your eyes and your ears to the ground because we are going to be releasing information in the forthcoming weeks about those limited tickets. They’re gonna be the hottest tickets in town. I can’t wait to step out in Raymond James Stadium as the WWE Champion… and to actually have fans in attendance is going to be unbelievable… I’m so excited! ‘Mania is coming back to Tampa! Round Two!”
During the interview, McIntyre also spoke about how he was feeling currently after contracting to Covid-19 and how WWE took precautions to prevent spreading virus further.
“I’m feeling great. You know, I’m one of the lucky ones, I was asymptomatic. But thanks to WWE constantly following the CDCs protocols, testing our talent every week, we actually managed to catch my positive test before I went to work and possibly passed it to anybody in the high-risk category. But, as I say, I’m feeling very good right now. I’m aiming to be back next week on Monday Night RAW and tell Goldberg what I plan to do to him at our upcoming event, the Royal Rumble.”
On this week’s Monday Night Raw, Drew McIntyre appeared on the show via satellite video and announced that he will be back to Raw next week. At Royal Rumble 2021 pay-per-view, Drew McIntyre set to defend his WWE Title against Goldberg.
