#4. The FBI once contacted McIntyre

McIntyre has had a number of interests throughout his life. He had said a number of times that he originally considered a career as a professional footballer, before starting wrestling training when he was 15 years old.

The current WWE Champion also has an interest in conspiracy theories and ghost stories, since he read a magazine called The X Factor when he was just 11 years old. This magazine prompted him to write a letter to the FBI under the Freedom of Information Act, which led to the organization then responding.

“When I was 11, I believe I was at the time, I used to have a subscription to a magazine called X Factor in the UK. It covered a lot of different areas: Conspiracy theories, unsolved crimes, strange insects, you know, ghosts, UFOs– such a variety of weird topics I was into at the time," he told The Wrap.

McIntyre went on to explain that there was a sample letter in the magazine that he filled in and sent off to The FBI, who later sent him all the information that he requested. The star revealed that much of the information was blanked out, but it was pretty interesting.
