During the interview, Roman Reigns talked about Drew McIntyre while discussing about WWE Superstar Spectacle. He stated that Rinku and Saurav are able to hold their own with pretty great champion Drew McIntyre and he’s his favorite number two.
“With the pressure of being on the biggest sports entertainment platform in the world, [Rinku and Saurav] were able to hold their own with a pretty great champion Drew McIntyre,” Reigns went on, “But let’s not confuse this now. Drew McIntyre, he’s my favorite number two. This is your clickbait right here. I’ve said it before. Drew knows it, you all know it. He’s my favourite number two. But when we’re talking about Roman Reigns, Drew McIntyre is here [creates a large gap between his hands to show the difference]. And this is me being generous. I’ll give him that. But it won’t ever be [Drew over Roman].” (H/T: Sportskeeda)
Drew McIntyre also had a great run as WWE Champion in last year. He successfully defended his title against top superstars, then, he lost title to Miz. Later, Almighty Bobby Lashley won the title and successfully defended against Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 37.
