Drew McIntyre Discusses CM Punk Program

Drew McIntyre spoke to Alex McCarthy of DailyMail about his storyline with CM Punk in 2024:

I didn’t really anticipate anything in the beginning, I was dealing with my personal feelings towards him, understanding why he was brought in. It’s a numbers thing. He sells a lot of T-shirts. And after the injury, I was going to exploit it. And it’s interesting, my name wasn’t mentioned once when it came to dream matches for CM Punk.
