Drew McIntyre soutient qu’il doit son retour dans le ring à l’attitude positive de John Cena.
En entrevue pour le podcast Sports Guys Talk Wrestling, McIntyre a mentionné qu’il a pu récupérer d’une blessure au cou – et lutter au Royal Rumble – en s’inspirant de Cena.
Cena est en effet reconnu pour défier les prévisions en mettant les bouchées doubles lorsqu’il est en réhabilitation après une blessure. McIntyre devait même rater possiblement Wrestlemania 38, mais il a travaillé très fort afin de devancer l’échéancier de son retour.
“They dropped a lighting rig on my head and I came back three and a half weeks later. I think everybody, including the doctor, was surprised at how soon I was able to come back. They told me, ‘You’re not making the Rumble. WrestleMania is possible, but let’s say it’s unlikely right now.’
“‘Okay Doc, no problem. I went straight to rehab and I’ve always had the John Cena approach to rehab with every injury. What’s the most I can do for maximum benefit? ‘Well, you could come twice a day for six days a week, but that would be crazy.’
“‘Done.’ I did that, rehab-wise, twice a day, six days a week, while also working out, so three times a day, six days a week, take Sunday off. When I saw the doctor a few weeks later, they were like, ‘Alright, wow, you’re a cyborg, probably why you were called the Scottish Terminator. I guess you’re ready to go.”
