Drew McIntyre, a three-time WWE world champion, commenced his wrestling journey at a tender age, stepping into the WWE ring at a mere 22 years old in 2007. Recently, Bruce Prichard, a seasoned executive in WWE, brought to light an incident involving McIntyre and the wrestling legends, The Nasty Boys.
During an untelevised match on November 20, 2007, The Nasty Boys emerged victorious over McIntyre and Dave Taylor. Rumors circulated regarding the duo’s in-ring recklessness and timing issues, which left a negative impact behind the scenes. Prichard substantiated these reports, emphasizing their lack of fitness and unprofessional demeanor during the match.
Renowned for their triumphs in WCW and WWE in the 1990s, The Nasty Boys aimed to secure another WWE contract through this particular match. Unfortunately, their lackluster performance resulted in the missed opportunity slipping through their fingers.

Despite Prichard’s amicable relationship with The Nasty Boys, he expressed disappointment in their treatment of McIntyre and Taylor, attributing their failure to poor physical condition, self-centered behavior, and chronic tardiness.
Nevertheless, McIntyre has emerged as a significant figure in today’s WWE terrain. His upcoming involvement in the Clash at the Castle Premium Live Event in Scotland on June 15 serves as a testament to his growth as a top draw in the wrestling realm.
When reflecting on McIntyre’s journey, one can’t help but recognize his development and tenacity in the face of adversity. As fans witness his ascent to superstardom, it becomes clear that McIntyre’s unwavering commitment and exceptional skill have propelled him to the pinnacle of success within WWE.
