Drew McIntyre recently talked about why he wasn’t in WWE and what he really thought about taking a break from in-ring competition.
McIntyre came back at the Money in the Bank premium live show after a break. At the show, he went up against Gunther, who he will fight for the Intercontinental Championship against.
In a recent interview with TMZ Sports, McIntyre talked briefly about the rumours that started when he stopped appearing on TV.
“It was cool, getting the break. There were a lot of rumors and headlines on the internet when I was out, probably like 50 different things. It was amazing all the stories about me out there. When you’re not, you’re not on tv, people talk, and you know, there might have been some smoke to some fire with a few of them, but it was nice. People were talking about me when I wasn’t there, but I did have to get some things fixed physically,”

The former WWE Champion enjoyed his time at home and worked on things outside of WWE.
“Unlike injuries, I’ve had in the past. There was no rehab involved, so I was actually able to enjoy my time at home, work on some outside projects, spend time with the Mrs and the cat, and take a step outside of the bubble and kind of get perspective again,”
