Drew McIntyre is eager for a potential wrestling match against Dave Bautista, his co-star in the upcoming film The Killer's Game, which features a notable fight scene between the two. McIntyre expressed disappointment that he never faced Bautista during their overlapping careers in WWE, stating, 'I hope not' regarding the movie fight being the closest fans get to a real match. He humorously suggested that if Bautista declines the match, he might be 'something that's another word for a cat.' Despite his enthusiasm, Bautista has confirmed he does not want to tarnish his retirement from wrestling, valuing the way he exited the sport. The movie, set for release on September 13, 2024, showcases the chemistry between the two, but McIntyre remains hopeful that an actual match could still happen, depending on Bautista's willingness. The ongoing feud between McIntyre and CM Punk adds further intrigue to his current wrestling narrative.
