Vince McMahon Nixed Big Plans For Former WWE Stable

Throughout history fans have seen some iconic stables perform on WWE programming, and of course it seems that wrestling fans have a special place in their hearts for 3MB. The group gave Heath Slater, Drew McIntyre and Jinder Mahal an opportunity to show off their comedic side and Drew McIntyre recently spoke to Faction 919 about Vince McMahon’s vision for the group.

According to Drew, Vince McMahon picked him and Jinder Mahal for the group because he wanted them to be anything but serious at the time. The former WWE Champion noted that Vince McMahon had bigger plans for 3MB, but they got nixed due to injury.

“He was trying to bring something out of us while at the same time couldn’t trust us in a prominent role. But [thought] ‘Okay, let’s see if these guys can come out of their shell a little bit more with Heath’ and that’s why 3MB was put together.

I had a broken wrist at the time, didn’t realize I needed surgery. So he did have bigger plans than ended up materializing, but six weeks after we formed, I had to get wrist surgery. I couldn’t touch anyone for about six months. So that kind of put the 3MB in the ground before we even started.”
