Ric Flair Explains Why Drew McIntyre Losing At WWE Clash At The Castle Was The Right Decision

Drew McIntyre is currently one of the top Superstars in WWE, and he clearly loves his profession. He won the WWE Champion on two different occasions and continues to be a beloved star.

The Scottish Warrior faced off against Roman Reigns at WWE Clash At The Castle for the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship. It was an all-out war as fans were at the edge of their seat throughout.

However, Drew McIntyre lost in the end after Solo Sikoa made his main roster debut and helped Reigns win the match. While speaking on his To Be The Man podcast, Flair explained why McIntyre losing was the right call.

“It’s not that Drew didn’t deserve to win but if you’re gonna get eventually if that’s the plan, which we all hope it is and I’m sure the company hopes it is. I’m assuming the company, never hope or assume anything, but if the plan is The Rock and Roman I just think the words ‘Heavyweight Championship’ are very important in that match.”

“And I think taking the belt off Roman and taking nothing away from Drew, Drew could very easily carry it and be a good champion as well. But the big match for the company, maybe one of the biggest of all time, obviously is Rock, if he elects to do that and Roman. So the way they did it didn’t hurt Drew at all. And Drew, you know, he’s always gonna be great.”

We’ll have to see what’s next in store for The Scottish Warrior. Odds are, he will be licking his wounds and waiting patiently until he gets another shot at The Tribal Chief.
