So I don't follow WWE at all anymore, but always had a soft spot for Drew. And whilst I must've seen images before I just saw a picture that's made me realised that he's a grown man in 2021 walking around with a bloody sword. It's so cartoonish I can't decide if it's fun in a campy way or Jar Jar levels of cringe. Thoughts?

Character Props that can't be used in a wrestling match are near 100% worthless.
The sword is borderline cringeworthy. It screams of "trying too hard to be cool" and it actively hurts his character. That sword is ultra lame and I'm tired of pretending it's not.

I've never even really been a fan of Drew McIntyre and I still think he's a million times worse now that, "Owns a sword," has become his entire identity.

It’s awful. The whole battle gear / sword entrance should really be a special thing… PPV only tops, probably even only Big 4 / Blood Feud. But I knew right away it wouldn’t be and it would be run into the ground pretty quickly. I was right.

He does and security is fine with this. Everyone doesn't act like this giant man is casually toting around a lethal weapon that he frequently brandishes at people.
Maybe someone can carry around a firearm next. What's the difference?

Have some respect! That Claymore carried him all the way through the Ringed City on NG+7.

Why they haven't made the sword shoot lightning bolts and set people on fire yet just proves how far this company has fallen.
I am reminded of "Stranglemania" where ICP dog on, I want to say, Tiger Jeet Singh for using the handle of his saber to attack Terry Funk in a death match🤣

Given that WWE has gone back to being all cartoonish I'd say Drew having the sword is one of the better parts of the modern cartoonish WWE lol.

As a fellow Scot (well, I was born there to English parents and we moved down South after a year so that only really makes me like 1/4 Scottish at most), I can confirm that we always carry a sword on our person at all times. We also only eat haggis and wear kilts everyday.

The fact that this dude in this incarnation has been in like 5 title matches since I started watching again is a crime.

I like the sword.
I understand it can't ever be used but it looks cool and works for the entrance.
I wish more characters had props like this.

It's no exxageration to say that sword changed his life. He wouldn't be where he is without it! And the best part is, you don't have to be a WWE Superstar to have a sword of your own! For just $1,000, you can buy your own replica Drew McIntyre sword-

I kept thinking maybe the comics character Angela, she sometimes had a sword? So I gave up, googled, and that it'd a. Named. B. Given the name Angela makes it so much worse. |

Drew McIntyre does not carry around a bloody sword.
It is spotless because he never uses it.

Not gonna lie, I think it's cool for Drew. Crowds pop when he has it, he never hits anyone but it looks dope. It just makes him stand out more which is good.
