On a recent edition of the “Kliq This” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash labeled Drew McIntyre as the top heel of the company.
Nash also weighed in on The Rock’s heel turn on the Road To WrestleMania 40.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Drew McIntyre being WWE’s top heel: “Drew’s probably their top heel, I mean Roman of course, but Drew’s their top heel. At this point, is Roman really a heel? Rock is more of a heel, but like we talked about, out of respect we will play along with this.”
On The Rock: “That’s what these people aren’t getting, nobody is thinking that The Rock is turning into a bad guy, he’s playing a bad guy, he’s good at it, he’s a really good actor. He’s a really good sports entertainer, and that’s why this all works.”
McIntyre will challenge Seth Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 40 (Night Two) next month in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
