Drew McIntyre has finally explained himself after detonating one of the most chaotic moments of WWE Saturday Nights Main Event and his reasoning reframes the entire situation.
The January 24, 2026 special from Montreal saw Cody Rhodes and Jacob Fatu completely lose control during their singles match, brawling through the crowd, backstage, and multiple secured areas. Thats when McIntyre inserted himself into the scene, laying out both men in brutal fashion. He wiped out Fatu with a table spot and powerbombed Rhodes through another, bringing a violent end to the chaos that neither security nor officials could contain.
Two days later, on January 26, McIntyre posted a clip of the attack on social media and provided the explanation behind his actions.
That short message says everything about how McIntyre views the situation. Rhodes and Fatu had turned what was supposed to be a marquee singles match into a runaway spectacle that endangered personnel, disrupted the broadcast, and overshadowed the rest of the card. McIntyres update makes it clear that he believes he stepped in to restore order.
Do you buy Drew McIntyres explanation that he was justified in attacking Cody Rhodes and Jacob Fatu, or is he just trying to excuse crossing the line? Drop your thoughts in the comments and let your voice be heard.
