When The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin, you know, left WWE, the top superstars of Triple H, Shawn Michaels, were at the end of their career. The company and the world needed somebody to step up into that top position. John stepped up in a massive way for multiple generations. And it's insane to say that he's about to have his last couple of matches. I'm sad I didn't get one of them, but I'm glad I'm part of the roster. I'm glad I got to travel the world. I'm glad I got to learn from John Cena because he is a legend, and he may just be the GOAT," he said.Sportskeeda Wrestling @SKWrestling_LINKDrew McIntyre holds nothing but respect for John Cena, hailing the Cenation leader as his GOAT ❤ @DMcIntyreWWE https://t.co/pxQPGhH2FODrew McIntyre teamed up with Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, Brock Lesnar, and Logan Paul to defeat CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and The Usos in the Men's WarGames match at Survivor Series 2025.If you use the quote in the first half of this article, please credit Sportskeeda Wrestling for the transcription.
