Rightfully so, McIntyre's moment has been described as the greatest in the history of Scottish Wrestling.

To many fans, though, that honour previously went to the night of November 15th, 2015, when ICW held it's eighth annual Fear and Loathing event.

The show emanated from a packed Glasgow SECC, which sold out off the back of one match that featured zero imported stars from the US.

That match was the clash for the ICW World Championship between Drew McIntyre and Grado. McIntyre had run roughshod over the company for a full year, whilst Grado represented the comedy character who many couldn't see matching up equally to the former WWE star.

What we saw was Scotland's version of the famed WrestleMania 18 match between The Rock and Hulk Hogan, as the fans were in unison for their support of Grado.

To many fans of ICW, this still stands out as the pinnacle of the company's history, with the reaction when Grado got the 1-2-3 remaining one of the greatest experiences I've had the pleasure of witnessing as a wrestling fan.

Grado himself has stated that this match is his favourite moment in wrestling, where McIntyre presented him as his equal in the ring throughout.
