Drew McIntyre has shared his reaction to defeating Cody Rhodes on tonight's episode of WWE RAW.

Rhodes took on The Scottish Warrior on RAW tonight in a singles competition. The Bloodline's Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa caused a distraction during the final moments of the match, with Solo hitting a Samoan Spike on Rhodes. This led to McIntyre hitting a Claymore Kick and picking up the big win.

This was the second time that Cody Rhodes got pinned on WWE TV since his return in 2022. His previous pinfall loss came last year in the main event of WrestleMania 39.

Here's how McIntyre reacted to the big win:

At Elimination Chamber: Perth, McIntyre will compete in an Elimination Chamber match for a World Heavyweight Championship opportunity at WrestleMania XL. He will take on Randy Orton, Bobby Lashley, LA Knight, Kevin Owens, and Logan Paul inside the hellish structure.

McIntyre is hell-bent on winning the top prize at WrestleMania in front of a live crowd. The last time when he won the WWE title in the main event of 'Mania, there was no live crowd to cheer him.

Drew McIntyre is on a quest to change that, and it remains to be seen if he wins the big one once again at The Grandest Stage Of Them All.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
