Drew McIntyre Injury Talk

Drew has been treating injuries for a long time, and while talking about it with Jay Reddick of the Orlando Sentinel, he said, “I can’t turn my head all the way left yet,” which hints at his pain.
Adding more about injuries, McIntyre stated, “Working hurt is just what happens if you’re an athlete, especially as the years go by,” McIntyre explained. “If you’re injured, it is something to take care of. Maybe back in the day, we would have taped it up and gone with it. In the past, I have worked with muscle tears and breaks, which isn’t the most sensible thing, but the way we operate now, you want to last for the long run.”
Some rumors say the Hollywood project is the reason for the sudden break by Drew, but there’s no official confirmation for any Hollywood projects for the star.
