Drew McIntyre won the Men’s Elimination Chamber 2024 match to earn the right to face Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 40.
During an interview on WWE’s The Bump, Drew McIntyre revealed that he suffered a ruptured eardrum during this match:
“I can barely hear the words after getting hit in the ear so hard. It’s fine. I said I would do whatever it takes, not just for me but for everybody else. And every superplex, every dive off the cage, every powerbomb in the back of my neck was worth it.
I said I’d go through any obstacle. Push Cody to finish his story, that’s what the fans wanted. Push Seth to stop being selfish. Some people are like, it’s just so you can get Seth at WrestleMania.
Yeah, I just had to beat AJ Styles and I just had to put myself through hell while jetlagged, while this eardrum appears to be burst. Worth it.
I did it for each and every one of you. We’re so close, so close. WrestleMania, we finish our own story and I finally get my moment.”
