The Scottish Psychopath is fulfilling his destiny and challenging for the title at WrestleMania. Incredible Rumble performance, perfectly booked. Ever since he came back to WWE, this is the push we’ve been waiting for, and he is damn good at the cool, funny, bad-ass persona he’s been rocking lately. It’s going to be an awesome moment when he Claymores Brock again and holds that title aloft at Mania. He should have great feuds with Brock and Rollins. He’s even made Randy Orton interesting for a few weeks, so it’s possible he can get good stuff out of the likes of Lashley and Corbin.
So - why are you going to hate him six months or so from now?

He's NOT shoved down our throats, which is ironic, as I can only vote for 9 choices, and it's the only one I didn't vote for, yet somehow is winning the poll, by 1 vote!!

Knowing this forum, probably because "MUH UNDERUSED" guy didn't win instead of him.
That, or he's not old-school enough for all the oldheads to fawn over him.

I’m a McIntyre fan. He’s a great worker and is obviously over, heel or face. However, him winning the Rumble this year was the wrong choice. At least as of this moment, that’s my opinion.
He just had a random “week to week” New Year babyface turn with no story whatsoever. There was no real build to McIntyre/Lesnar at all and now they’re gonna throw this match together over the next 2 months.
Drew will also fall into cheesy insults, a new catchphrase and pander to the crowd. Because WWE creative can’t book a strong babyface properly. The guy should’ve just been a dominant heel for his main event push... after Lesnar.

Because there doesn’t need to be a build between the both of them beforehand. That’s what the next two months are for. To build the match. I don’t see how having two months to build the match is “thrown together”, if anything for WWE it’s too long.

I won’t because I haven’t turned on anyone I like who has gotten a push. That said I am sure there’s going to be plenty who will be onto the next superstar saying McIntyre has been ruined with years of booking and now Vince is forcing him on us.

It’s WWE’s fault that the fans do this. Watch when The Rock turned face after WrestleMania 15. He doesn’t pander to the audience, he doesn’t really change at all. He just A) changed a little who he mocks which was Shane (but still mocks Austin). And B) he doesn’t cut off the crowd from liking him which he did as a heel. He allows them to like him in a sense
Now a days, being a face means becoming desperate to be liked. When in reality it should be the opposite. The fans already like you, don’t change a damn thing. Just focus the attitude on heels. In Austin’s case, he beat up the faces and became a baby face! Just stay true to the character and don’t derail the character to make them a baby face
When characters become a face now, they lose all edge and qualities that made them interesting and instead just become generic good guy who uses the same catch phrase because that’s what worked for The Rock back when. Even though that’s not true, Rock had charisma. That’s what’s endeared him to the fans, not the same catch phrase week after week

Don't forget during his first run he was shoved down everyones throats has the Chosen One from McMahon, he pretty much fell flat and became a jobber. 3MB started showing his comedic side, and personality. This slight face/tweener turn is really what his character needed to get over. I'm not a huge fan of him but he can have decent matches with the right people.

You forgot to add "because new hotness came into the picture and I want him to be pushed"
I don't get how "fans" turn on their beloved wrestlers so quickly. I've been supporting AJ, KO, Bliss, Bryan, and Lynch so many many years (KO only since his NXT because I had no idea who he was till I saw him in NXT) (Lynch when she was quick by Rebecca Knox) (AJ in WCW) (Bliss in NXT) (Bryan in ROH and NXT). When their booking gets boring, I still support them.
I've only quit/soured a wrestler once. And he killed people, so there were justifiable reasons for no longer being a fan.

3-2-1. That $#!t really needs to stop. I know Vince wrote a book on what it means to be a babyface, but as evidenced by stars getting over strong elsewhere you don't necessarily need to have an incredibly lame catchphrase to get people behind you.
I'm psyched that he won btw, and am going to be behind him, but every time he does the countdown I'm taken to cringeplex city. Bonus demerits for the pander/kip up combo. He just needs to be the rampaging Scottish Psychopath that he was before, only destroy heels instead.

I don't plan on turning on Drew. I've been wanting him to get a push for a LONG time, and it's finally happening. I'm happy, and I'm really happy for him because it's CLEAR how hard he's worked for this.
The only thing I'm going to be displeased about is if he ends up winning the Title off Brock as a result of a dick kick. They really need to stop this. I get that it's essentially Brock's only weakness, but the last how many guys to beat him have done it as a result of Dick Kick City.
I'd love to see a Bret Hart metal chest plate situation with Brock where somebody kicks him in the dick and they go down with a broken foot and Brock pulls out a metal cup and then F5's them for the win. I'm not saying I want that to happen to Drew, because I think Drew should be Champion over a less than Part-Time Lesnar....but I'd just love to see Brock do the metal cup gimmick after this has happened to him so much.
