Drew McIntyre Calls Singing with Tyson Fury the Worst Moment of His Career

Drew McIntyre reflected on a moment that he considers the most embarrassing of his wrestling career—his impromptu sing-along with Tyson Fury after his loss to Roman Reigns at Clash at the Castle in 2022.

During an interview on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, McIntyre explained that in the heat of the moment, it seemed like a bad idea, but he now believes WWE made the right decision in protecting its top storyline involving Roman Reigns and The Bloodline.

“You look at certain moments, and in the moment when you’re living them, you’re like, ‘This is ridiculous. We should have found a way out of this. [Austin] Theory could have cashed in, and I could have pinned him,’ because we had to protect The Bloodline and Roman at that time. So it’s the top story in the company, the top character.”

However, the real low point for McIntyre was what came after the match—the sing-along with boxing star Tyson Fury, which he candidly described as “stupid” and the “worst moment” of his career. Drew recalled how awkward it was for him, especially as the live audience, predominantly British, didn’t connect with the American song choice of American Pie.

“The thing with Tyson Fury, that was stupid. There’s no excuse for that. That’s the worst moment in my entire career,” McIntyre admitted.

He added that he thought they were off the air and had begun doing a bit with Oasis songs to engage the disappointed crowd, only to later find out that they were still on the broadcast.

“I figured we’re off the air. That’s when I started doing an Oasis bit and singing… just got the crowd going. And I was like, ‘Ah, this sucks, but we’re off the air.’ Then I found out we were still on the air, and it was a whole thing.”

Despite the awkwardness, McIntyre accepts that protecting WWE’s top storylines was crucial, even if it meant enduring an uncomfortable moment on such a big stage.
