The Special Olympics USA, held every four years (organised this year in Orlando, FL), is a sporting event for disabled children and adults in the US and the Caribbean. This year’s edition, taking place from June 5 to 11, saw over 5,500 athletes compete in 32 Olympic-type sports.

The Scottish Warrior recently appeared on WWE’s The Bump, where he discussed how much these games mean to him. Drew even spent his birthday on June 6 attending the games and events surrounding them. He also received a gift from one of the competitors, which he really seemed to appreciate.

When speaking about the importance of the games, the former WWE Champion had this to say:

Which WWE Legend does Drew McIntyre want to face in the ring?

During the same episode of The Bump, Drew McIntyre claimed that he would like to face John Cena in a WWE ring.

The 16-time World Champion is set to make a WWE return on the June 27 episode of RAW in Laredo, TX. This will be his first appearance in the company since losing the Universal Championship match to Roman Reigns in the main event of last year’s Summerslam.

The two stars have never faced each other in a singles match before, and if it was up to Drew, that wouldn’t be the case for much longer:

With his accolades in the company and his work outside it in events like the Special Olympics. It would not be a stretch to say that Drew McIntyre is one of the faces of WWE’s global brand.
