Drew McIntyre On Returning To WWE
After leaving the promotion back in 2014, Drew McIntyre set out to make a name for himself on the indies, away from the WWE machine. After his surprising return to NXT earlier this year, McIntyre says he learned some valuable lessons during his time away from WWE.
“When you’re by yourself and not with WWE, you are your own business. And I was very successful in that business because of all the lessons I learned. I truly learned how to be a top brand myself and be what I needed to be. When the time was right and I wasn’t under contract anywhere, I spoke to Triple H on the phone. It was the right time to come home, and I was the right guy. I got the opportunity, and now I’ve got the ball and I’m going to run with it as far as I can.”
He also talked about NXT being the number one show.
“My job is to get NXT recognized as that third brand, not just as developmental. And since I’ve been back I’ve noticed the difference that people are starting to refer to it that way. It obviously doesn’t have the platform that Raw or Smackdown does, but I believe it’s the No. 1 show. We’re so competitive and passionate when it comes to our shows. I hope everyone’s keeping an eye on us. We are the No. 1 show for a reason. Everyone on the show has earned that spot. There are 150 people down at NXT. So if you’re on the show, wherever it may be, they’ve earned that spot and are giving a WrestleMania performance every time they’re in the ring.”
WWE Announces The Signing Of New Female Talents
WWE announced earlier today that they have signed Mae Young Classic competitor Kavita Devi and Shadia Bseiso, who is from Jordan and attended a WWE tryout in Dubai earlier this year.
Devi, who is the first female from India to sign with the company, feels it’s a privilege to work with WWE.
“It was a privilege to be the first Indian woman to compete in WWE. Participating in the Mae Young Classic with some of the best female performers in the world was a great learning experience. Now I am looking forward to pursuing my dream of becoming the first WWE Women’s Champion from India.”
Bseiso seems to feel the same; she is the first woman from the Middle East to sign with the promotion.
“It is an honor to be the first-ever woman from the Middle East to sign with WWE. I have visited the Performance Center and attended the Mae Young Classic. I have personally witnessed the power of WWE and the passion of WWE fans. I look forward to starting on my path to becoming a WWE Superstar.”
