Drew McIntyre Reveals What Brock Lesnar Said To Him About Being A Member Of 3MB

Drew McIntyre has had quite the journey through the business of professional wrestling, and on Sunday night he solidified himself as a main eventer when he defeated Brock Lesnar to win the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 36.

Prior to his WWE release a few years back McIntyre was working as a member of the comedy group 3MB, and he told Sports Illustrated during an interview that Brock Lesnar was confused about his involvement with the group.

“I remember it well. Brock was not long back at that point from UFC. He pulled me aside, and he straight-up asked me, ‘Why are you involved in this?’ He was so confused, but he saw something in me and believed in me. It’s pretty crazy, all these years later, I was the guy to take the title from him at WrestleMania.”

The current WWE Champion went on to say that it means a lot to him to earn Brock Lesnar’s respect.

“Brock is a man’s man. He won’t do business with you if he thinks you’re not doing the job you should be doing. Brock is a very private person, he doesn’t like people too much, but he’s all about respect. To have earned his respect means a lot.”
