Kelsea Ballerini has been the hostess with the mostest, so far as the CMT Music Awards, however it’ll quickly be time to slap an “emeritus” on that. She hosts the awards present, now seen on CBS, tonight for a fourth and final time. Ballerini is revealing she can be relinquishing the function after dealing with emcee duties since 2021; Kane Brown was her associate in co-hosting earlier telecasts, main as much as her solo reign over the ceremony this time.

Sitting in her dressing room backstage at Austin’s Moody Middle the day earlier than the telecast, she was something however moody in discussing why she’s loved the CMTs journey thus far, however why she’ll additionally get pleasure from delving additional into different alternatives she’s hoping to give attention to extra within the time to come back.

“It’s my remaining yr, yeah,” Ballerini confirms. “I’ve hosted or co-hosted this present for 4 years now, and I’ve gotten to host a whole lot of totally different sorts of ventures during the last decade — and I actually get pleasure from it. It was the very first thing that I did exterior of music actually, that allowed me to ask myself the query: What else? Like, what else can I do? And I’m able to ask myself that query once more, and I actually need to give myself the area to see what else there’s. By no means say by no means — I’ll by no means say that I received’t come do that once more. I like it. I simply am excited to see what else I can do.”

It’s not any secret that Ballerini has her eyes set on different media; she mentioned it in a earlier interview with Selection… for an article in any other case targeted on her renewing her Black River file deal, indicating that she’s positively not dropping all the things to discover new avenues. So in the case of what else is likely to be forward, for now, she says, “I’m actually creatively fulfilled by the thought of discovering a approach to get entangled with newer artists and discover a approach to creatively collaborate. And I’m actually excited concerning the concept of performing some stuff in movie and TV and simply pushing myself exterior of my consolation zone. Music is at all times gonna be my child and my focus and the factor that I shield essentially the most, however within the area round it, I need to continue to grow and I need to maintain difficult myself.”

Going it solo on the helm isn’t in any respect daunting. “I like Kane and I miss him this yr, however I really feel like I’ve gotten sufficient expertise below my belt the place I really feel geared up — yeah, I’ll take the job.” With one asterisk to that confidence. “I put on a whole lot of very giant heels, and now I don’t have a pleasant arm subsequent to me to assist me not journey. In order that’s terrifying.”

Ballerini has a brand new album-in-progress, to comply with up her Grammy-nominated “Rolling Up the Welcome Mat” undertaking. However earlier than she begins teasing that, the singer has simply launched a between-albums one-off — a newly rearranged model of her breakout hit “Love Me Like You Imply It,” which she considers “just a bit thank-you” to the followers who’ve been together with her for 10 years. That’s the music she’ll be seen doing on the CMTs, pre-taped in entrance of a crowd on the tower at UT Austin.

“I stand by the music and the sentiment a lot, nonetheless,” she avows. “The center of ‘Love Me Like You Imply It’ is that we settle for the love that we predict we deserve, and inspiring one another to carry ourselves accountable to simply accept good love. And me as a 30-year-old feels the identical means, however has a whole lot of life since I wrote that music at 19. So I used to be like, how would 30-year-old me sing this? And that was a extremely enjoyable discovery. To me it was just like the ending of a decade of music collectively, and after which a continuation of ‘Welcome Mat’ and sonically sort of a touch as to what’s subsequent.”

Her function within the present apart, Ballerini has picks for what she thinks telecast highlights is likely to be.

“In my view, the efficiency of the night time’s gonna be Little Large City and Sugarland, that they have already got such a synergy and a historical past collectively,” she says. Though the id of the music the 2 acts are doing collectively isn’t being revealed previous to showtime, “I’ve heard the music, as a result of Karen (Fairchild) is only a pricey sister to me,” she says. “And I bear in mind once I heard ‘Life in a Northern City once they did it collectively years in the past” — on the CMT Awards in 2008, the final time these two teams collaborated on a efficiency — “and it simply brings me proper again to that, and I believe it’s gonna be a second.”

She’s additionally excessive on a model new artist, Dasha, who’ll be making the transition from TikTok star to prime time tv for the primary time with a efficiency of “Austin.”

“I imply, we now have Trisha (Yearwood) and we now have Keith (City) holding it down, as pillar, household-name nation artists that folks have tuned into these reveals for years and years to see. After which the vary goes all the best way to Dasha, who’s blowing up on TikTok. I referred to as Jason (Owen), my supervisor, a couple of month in the past, and I used to be like, ‘I don’t know if all of the efficiency spots are booked or not, but when not, can we get her on the present’ She has the music referred to as ‘Austin’” — as in, completely coincidentally, the host metropolis — “and it’s excellent. I believe we want her, and I’m so completely satisfied she’s on the present now. And it’s her first awards present efficiency and her first efficiency in an enviornment, so it’s a giant deal.”

Dasha was, in truth, leaving Ballerini’s dressing room simply minutes in the past, after beforehand telling Selection how a lot she regarded ahead to probably hanging with Ballerini. The host finds herself now in that hopefully candy spot the place she’s regarded as much as as a veteran by a few of the youngest feminine artists developing, however continues to be a veritable child to a lot of the trade that’s stored her as a star for 10 years — a center floor she’s completely satisfied to inhabit proper now, nonetheless laborious it’s to completely understand from the within out.

“That makes me smile,” she says, when advised what number of younger girls with debut albums point out her as an affect or somebody they hope to fulfill. “I’m at all times in dialog with myself on discovering the fitting line of nonetheless considering I’m a brand new artist, after which additionally honoring the last decade that I’ve had and never discrediting the success I’ve had. I really feel like I’ve spent a whole lot of my profession sort of with my shoulders a little bit bit hunched in, and I’m actually making an attempt to face tall on this final decade of labor and be happy with myself and present up for that, whereas additionally figuring out that I nonetheless have a protracted approach to go and I at all times wanna push myself and continue to grow. So it’s actually enjoyable to have the ability to be buddies with and in the identical room and conditions as my heroes, however then additionally being assembly the newer artists that I nonetheless actually establish with, a whole lot of the time.”

Of her earlier three stints internet hosting or co-hosting the CMTs, final yr was her favourite. “I used to be happy with the present as a complete, and I used to be happy with what I used to be in a position to convey to the present,” she says of 2023’s present— together with a musical efficiency from her that included a phalanx of drag queens, proper as Tennessee legislators have been enacting anti-drag laws, plus a gap assertion addressing gun violence within the wake of a Nashville mass faculty capturing. “So far as my opening assertion, my efficiency internet hosting with Kane, being in a brand new metropolis, I really feel like we actually did convey a brand new breath of life to the present that was actually enjoyable to look at occur in actual time. So I believe that, for me, is the bar.”

Undoubtedly not the excessive level, however one thing she is ready to look again on with some affection, was the yr 2022, when she was scheduled to co-host in individual with Anthony Mackie however shifted to digital co-host when she examined constructive for COVID, regardless of feeling tremendous. Brown stepped in to imagine a few of the duties she would have had on the host enviornment in Nashville, whereas Ballerini did reside remotes from the socially distanced consolation of house.

“I snort at it now, and I’m actually happy with the pivot that we ended up with the ability to do,” Ballerini says. “It might’ve been very easy for them to be like, ‘OK, we’re gonna simply fill your spot,’ and so they didn’t. They put a satellite tv for pc truck exterior of my home with all of the gear that it was simple for me to determine and to nonetheless be part of it. It was very a lot a bookmark of that point, which was pivoting and figuring issues out because it was taking place to us. It positively wasn’t best, however we pulled it off, and I obtained to finish the night time in my sweatpants, so it was a win.”

She’s extremely approving of the CMTs being in Austin for a second yr, as each this present and the ACMs have shifted to a Texas base, for the sake of shaking issues up but in addition with no small assist from monetary incentives. “You recognize, I’m Staff Evolve. I’m Staff Attempt One thing New — see the way it works, see if it’s proper,” she says. “I simply assume particularly as a style, with the ability to put ourselves in new locations and check out new issues, that’s how we evolve. And to be right here, whether or not it’s for simply two years or the subsequent 20, I believe it was an superior, wholesome change.”

This yr, “I do know going into these moments that I like having enjoyable with the style and the appears to be like and all that stuff, and I actually satisfaction myself on not taking myself too rattling significantly. And I believe particularly with this present, and actually with the script this yr specifically, I get to lean into that extra and simply sort of be who I’m.” Which is… “Actually, I’m a goofy lady, and I like with the ability to be that alongside being a reputable artist. Two issues can reside in the identical area.”

Some have questioned concerning the tone of her subsequent album, since she pivoted from making the largely upbeat — and, sure, generally goofy — “Topic to Change” in 2022 proper into “Rolling Up the Welcome Mat” in 2023. That EP (later expanded to album lengthin a deluxe version) was her “divorce file,” utterly holistic as a thematic look into darkish developments in her private life. If anybody following the nation world had failed to offer her credit score as a cred artist previously, “Welcome Mat” disabused them of these doubts, and racked up the sort of album of the yr nominations at awards reveals (together with the Grammys) that had generally eluded her when she was producing extra effusive materials. However talking of Staff Evolve, will the subsequent album undertaking be a pivot again to extra clearly mainstream fare, or…?

“Nicely, I believe that’s sort of like what I used to be saying earlier: two issues will be true. Like, I’m a deeply emotional and dedicated songwriter. That’s my absolute reality. It’s the love of my life; it’s my craft. And even on this new season of life, I’m actually being diligent about making a file that has that very same stage of songwriting and honesty and intention as ‘Welcome Mat’ in depth. In the identical breath, I’m a 30-year-old lady that actually is having fun with my life, and I’m in a distinct section of my life now that’s stuffed with much more mild and pleasure. And I like with the ability to have fun that, and there’s area for each.”

However you received’t see a lot of the “Welcome Mat” facet of her on the CMTs. For the larger viewers that now watches the present reside on CBS and Paramount+ (and, after a number of days, its namesake, CMT, too), she can be rolling out a real welcome mat, one which’s nearer to comedic in tone.

“You recognize, I’m gonna be doing a little bit ‘Barbie’ bit. I’m gonna be doing a little bit impromptu collab. And I’m gonna be making enjoyable of myself on the prime of the present. As a result of I similar to to beat folks to the punch, and I’m going to be in all probability shedding (as a nominee)… however wanting good and doing it effectively.”

‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ Finale Ends With Larry David ‘Seinfeld’ Callback

[This story contains major spoilers from the series finale of Curb Your Enthusiasm, “No Lessons Learned.”]

And, that’s a wrap on Larry David‘s Curb Your Enthusiasm.

The sequence finale of the Emmy-winning HBO improv comedy kicked off with a giant circle again to how the ultimate season started, with the ensemble heading to Atlanta to assist Larry David (performed by sequence creator-star David) in his trial.

For a refresher: Season 12 opened with Larry getting arrested for violating a 2021 voting regulation in Georgia when he gave Leon Black’s (JB Smoove) Auntie Rae (performed by Ellia English) a glass of water whereas she was ready in line to vote. Larry didn’t know concerning the regulation, however he turned a liberal hero anyway, with the likes of Stacey Abrams, Bruce Springsteen and Sienna Miller turning into his adoring new followers.

An unlucky challenge with a alternative garden jockey, nonetheless, led to Larry pleading not responsible to obstructing the election course of within the state of Georgia — which is punishable by as much as one 12 months in jail and a positive of $10,000 — and going forward with the trial, an occasion that has loomed over the complete season.

Larry’s act of being a very good samaritan prompted comparisons to the sequence finale of Seinfeld and hypothesis that Curb’s ending would possibly deal with the sequence finale of the basic comedy that left starring foursome Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander and Michael Richards in a jail cell after they have been deemed by the regulation to be dangerous samaritans. The ending was divisive. And Curb‘s collaborating duo of David and govt producer Jeff Schaffer appeared in on the reception, as this season was plagued by references to how David ended that beloved comedy.

One key storyline within the sequence finale is that Leon is binge-watching Seinfeld for the primary time ever when the Curb crew lands in Atlanta for Larry’s trial. Jury choice is underway and the decide decides to sequester the jurors because of the flurry of media scrutiny across the high-profile trial.

Ted Danson (performed by himself) makes use of the chance to steer protests in opposition to the Election Integrity Act (which is an actual regulation in Georgia), and Richard Lewis (performed by the late comic) is rekindling a former romance with a dishonest lady (performed by visitor star Allison Janney) who inadvertently flipped off Larry and Leon on the freeway.

The visitor forged roster continues to unspool, as a who’s-who of ghosts from Larry’s Curb previous pour into the courtroom to hang-out his verdict prospects. Larry and his lawyer (performed by Sanaa Lathan) additionally face a formidable opponent on the opposite aspect of the courtroom with the prosecutor (performed by Greg Kinnear), in addition to the decide on the bench (performed by Dean Norris).

Susie Greene (performed by Susie Essman) dropped the primary trace of how the decision would possibly go when she referred to as Larry out for by no means studying a lesson in his life. “It’s as much as the jury to resolve what sort of man Larry David is,” newscasters announce of the headline-making trial.

The laundry listing of Larry’s offenders is, ultimately, too giant to disregard — because the jury is knowledgeable of a few of his worst behaviors, like stealing footwear from the Holocaust museum, “maliciously” giving Bruce Springsteen COVID, hugging a 9-year-old (after putting a water bottle in his pants) and giving her 21 years of remedy, utilizing the N-word, stealing from a number of lifeless folks, bribing a metropolis councilperson, hiring a prostitute so he might drive within the carpool lane and pretending to be an incest survivor named Todd.

“I cannot tolerate corruption from Trump, Putin or Larry David,” declares season 11 visitor star, whistleblower Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman (taking part in himself).

The trial has confirmed Larry to be a “petty, conniving and albeit spiteful man,” the newscasters sum up earlier than Larry is handed down a responsible verdict and sentenced to 1 12 months in jail.

However simply as viewers assume Curb could go away Larry rotting in a jail cell, complaining concerning the trivia of every day life in acquainted Seinfeld style, Atlanta customer and extremely anticipated visitor star Jerry Seinfeld is available in to save lots of the day.

Due to a fortuitous encounter at a close-by restaurant, Jerry was capable of out one of many jurors for breaking the sequestering rule. A mistrial is asserted and Larry’s sentence has been thrown out.

“Larry,” Jerry bellows, “is a free man!”

“You don’t wanna find yourself like this. No one needs to see it. Belief me,” says Jerry in a large wink to Seinfeld.

Because the pair stroll out of the jail cell collectively, they muse about issues that would have been.

“Oh my God, that is how we should always’ve ended the finale,” says Larry.

“Oh my God you’re proper, how did we not consider that?” asks Jerry.

“Ahhh,” they are saying in unison, as they throw their palms up.

The episode, directed by Schaffer, then ends with the ensemble arguing over placing the shade up or down on their airplane again to Los Angeles. “Go fuck your self, Larry. Return to fucking jail, Larry!” Susie screams in one of many final discernible traces of the sequence.

When speaking about Larry’s destiny in latest weeks, Schaffer had hinted to The Hollywood Reporter that Larry wouldn’t be punished — equating his state of affairs to that of former President Donald Trump, who was as soon as once more invoked this week with a resurfaced shot of Larry’s Trump-like mugshot.

“The previous felon-in-chief is meant to be on trial now 4 instances over, and none of them are taking place! TV Larry ought to be envious at how [former President Donald] Trump is delaying all these things. So, who is aware of what’s going to occur on Curb?” Schaffer had not too long ago stated.

Now, Schaffer presents this to THR, in a little bit of uncommon Curb reflection:

“What I like concerning the finale is that it touches on one thing larger than the present. We frequently blur the road between actual Larry and TV Larry, however right here there isn’t any line in any respect: Each Larrys have by no means realized a lesson — and thank the Gods for it.”

Head right here for extra from Schaffer as he unpacks the sequence finale — titled “No Classes Discovered” — with THR. Curb Your Enthusiasm is streaming on Max.

Curb Your Enthusiasm Finale Review: Larry David Says Goodbye

SPOILER ALERT: This text discusses plot factors from the sequence finale of “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”

Larry David acquired the chance to revise the controversial ending he’d chosen for his first extensively beloved TV sequence, and he stayed fairly near the formulation. However whereas his earlier sequence ended with its protagonist in jail, his present one is ending with David himself strolling free.

This season of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” had appeared, from its first episode, to be constructing towards an ending that both mirrored or inverted the way in which “Seinfeld,” co-created by David and Jerry Seinfeld, had wrapped up in 1998. The season’s mega-arc has been the continued uncertainty across the character Larry’s having by accident run afoul of Georgia election legal guidelines. And, all through the season, askance references to the “Seinfeld” finale (which featured the core forged going to jail after having been compelled to listen to infinite testimony as to their self-centeredness) instructed that the correct solution to wrap up a sequence was very a lot on David’s thoughts.

The “Seinfeld” finale — which David, who had left the sequence, returned to write down — was pilloried on the time, but when one watches it immediately, outdoors the warmth of the present’s press-choreographed march to the end line, it’s not unhealthy. It’s only a bit sloppy. In that, it was already extra like a generic episode of “Curb” than a generic episode of “Seinfeld” — after which the “Curb” finale simply reiterated the formulation. I’ll admit that I used to be shocked to comprehend that this “Curb” episode, within the current day, actually was simply doing the trial formulation yet again, and that I used to be dismayed that the character witnesses, this time, have been plucked typically although not completely from latest episodes. (“Seinfeld’s” witnesses, just like the Soup Nazi, had the burden of getting blossomed by fashionable mandate into TV historical past; “Curb’s” included Bruce Springsteen, speaking about one thing that occurred on final week’s episode; Alexander Vindman was additionally again, for some cause.)

“Seinfeld” ended with its characters confined to jail, put away on a technicality after years of abusing their fellow man. It’s prime Larry David, in that it looks as if an ending David had in thoughts, towards which he constructed a sequence of occasions that made sense — kind of. “Curb’s” ending was nonetheless extra complicated: Larry is convicted, however then let off on a technicality after the real-life Jerry Seinfeld sees a juror breaking sequester, spurring a mistrial ruling. Larry flies off into the sundown, with a comparatively uninspired quarrel with Susie (Susie Essman) marking the tip of this narrative. Earlier within the episode, David had made the barely-buried subtext of the sequence textual content: Confronting a toddler, he appears prepared to inform him off or to ship unsolicited parenting recommendation to his mom, earlier than declaring, “I’m 76 years previous, and I’ve by no means realized a lesson in my total life.”

Jail can’t wake him up, however TV manufacturing may: One can learn this episode because the response to classes he realized from the response to the “Seinfeld” finale. And there are, certainly, moments of enjoyable that have been lacking there — David and Seinfeld, strolling out of jail collectively, comment how far more enjoyable it will have been if Jerry, Elaine and the gang had gotten an analogous last-minute reprieve. Ha-ha. And Essman has nice moments elsewhere within the finale, earlier than her look within the out-of-ideas ultimate scene.

However the finale spoke, in the principle, to each the strengths and weaknesses of “Curb” relative to what may — had he been much less formidable within the years after — have been David’s nice work. “Seinfeld” was elastic for a community present, but it surely had its limits. “Curb,” which debuted as an everyday sequence in 2000 after first airing as a particular in 1999, is as previous as this century, and has moved ahead by perpetually pushing limits. It’s carried out a stable if not all the time optimally elegant job of monitoring the evolving dinner-party trending subjects over 20 years. The present’s on-the-fly nature — with its wholly improvised conversations constructed across the free define of a plot — successfully invented a class of leisure, but in addition implies that the present is by its nature a blunt instrument. Larry and his mates are loopily, outrageously humorous; they dwell out loud; they play video games of one-upsmanship which are genuinely pleasant to observe. However they’re not often sly.

This, as a lot because the West Coast-vs.-East Coast divide or the profanity allowed by premium cable, is what differentiates “Curb” from “Seinfeld” — on the latter sequence, (practically) each episode’s ultimate minutes had a satisfying, Swiss-watch high quality, because the disparate storylines clicked neatly into place and the characters got here again collectively as soon as extra. “Curb” has made a observe of bringing its episodes in for memorable landings, too, however its endings extra continuously come as wild, who’d-have-thunk narrative swings. (This has turn into more true and more true in latest seasons, the development of which has grown ever extra lackadaisical.) On “Seinfeld,” one admires the logic; on “Curb,” one admires the audacity.

Which additionally meant that on “Seinfeld,” those that weren’t bitterly disillusioned by the finale might respect a sure poetic logic to it. The one poetry to “Curb’s” finale was free verse. (It’s telling that on “Seinfeld’s” finale, we noticed all of the witnesses and acquired their tales positioned in context; towards the tip of “Curb’s” testimony towards Larry, a prosecutor performed by Greg Kinnear was simply itemizing off issues that had occurred on a sequence that was improvisatory to the tip.) Larry will probably be missed. However he could deserve a break. 

Drew McIntyre Posts ‘Bored at Work’ Message in WWE WrestleMania 40 Match vs. Rollins | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors

Drew McIntyre confronted Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship within the opening match of Night time 2 of WrestleMania 40 on Sunday evening, however he discovered some levity within the second.

Throughout the early portion of the match, the Scot took a cellphone from his associate within the crowd and posted a tweet saying he was “bored at work.”

Drew @DMcIntyreWWE

Bored at work. LOL!

McIntyre overcame his boredom and defeated Rollins, earning his first championship win in front of fans. The now-three-time world champion’s previous title wins occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Unfortunately, his third reign ended in a matter of minutes. During his celebration, he got in the face of CM Punk, who was sitting at the commentary table.

Punk retaliated and attacked McIntyre, opening the door for Damian Priest to cash in his Money in the Bank contract and win the first singles world title of his career.

McIntyre was subjected to trolling online following his short-lived title reign, with Bad Bunny among those who got in on the fun:

Benito @sanbenito

hope you had a good shift https://t.co/j8jpSrjxTD

Austin Creed @AustinCreedWins

McIntyre’s loss will likely be remembered for a while, as he now has one of many shortest title reigns in WWE historical past.

WWE WrestleMania 40 Results As McIntyre Trolls His Way To A Win, Priest Cashes In

Drew McIntyre defeated Seth Rollins with a number of Claymore Kicks to turn out to be the brand new WWE World Heavyweight champion. The 2 high stars opened WrestleMania 40 in a giant manner in entrance of a a lot hotter crowd (and stadium) in Philadelphia’s Lincoln Monetary Subject. Following McIntyre’s win, Damian Priest efficiently cashed in his Cash within the Financial institution contract on McIntyre.

McIntyre beat down a battle-worn Seth Rollins lower than 24 hours after a violent most important occasion in opposition to The Rock and Roman Reigns. An emotional McIntyre weeped as he lastly acquired his second. Seth Rollins, who bought his leg the whole match, was additionally weeping tears of happiness as he might be seen saying the phrases “you f—king deserve it, man.”

The grasp of trolling, Drew McIntyre tried a GTS at one level as a not-so-subtle shot at his bitter rival CM Punk. However McIntyre was simply getting began. After his win and particular second together with his spouse, McIntyre continued to taunt Punk by making a lewd gesture towards Phil Brooks whereas standing on the announce desk. Punk responded by attacking McIntyre, blasting him together with his protecting sleeve and beating him down. Enter Damian Priest, who cashed in after 280 days. Along with blowing a chef’s kiss, CM Punk additionally blew a kiss to Drew McIntyre’s spouse.

And the troll acquired trolled.

WWE flexed its cinematic muscle tissues by means of the story of Seth Rollins vs. Drew McIntyre. Timing is every little thing in professional wrestling. Previously, each Rollins and McIntyre have discovered this the arduous manner.

In 2020, Drew McIntyre reached the head of WWE by successful the WWE Championship. Sadly, no person was there to see it. Earlier this 12 months, Seth Rollins injured his knee in a WWE World Championship match in opposition to Jinder Mahal. The damage put his knee and WrestleMania XL standing in jeopardy.

Each Rollins and McIntyre have since recovered from their adversities—impeccably—and are actually benefiting from good timing this WrestleMania season. The backlash in opposition to The Rock stealing Cody Rhodes’ WrestleMania spot compelled WWE to pivot. In consequence, Rhodes was reinserted in his rightful place as challenger for the WWE Undisputed Common Championship. Rollins leveled up by becoming a member of Cody Rhodes to battle the great battle in opposition to The Bloodline, and extra importantly, get the rub from The Rock.

When CM Punk returned at WWE Survivor Sequence, McIntyre appeared like he was set to be the odd man out this WrestleMania season. McIntyre even discovered himself addressing rumors about being legitimately upset and strolling out of the constructing following Punk’s return. Seemingly made to attend yet one more 12 months for his elusive world title second in entrance of a full crowd, McIntyre turned one man’s tragedy into his personal triumph following a devastating triceps damage to CM Punk within the 2024 WWE Royal Rumble.

Punk’s loss became McIntyre’s acquire as Drew stepped into what was speculated to be Punk’s function to problem Rollins for the WWE World Championship. Instantly, McIntyre now discovered himself on the doorstep of a world title win, although it’s not acceptable to name CM Punk’s damage a great timing scenario. Everyone is aware of that.

Everyone besides Drew McIntyre.

As a result of not solely did the self-proclaimed “WrestleMania Savior” wind up in a greater wrestling scenario, the person reinvented himself as a routine line-stepper. Already doing the perfect character work of his profession as a self-righteous hypocrite, McIntyre added one other layer of trolling to his gimmick. By in-ring promos, social media and even merchandise, McIntyre used each useful resource at his disposal to not solely remind Punk of his heartbreaking damage—however to rub it in his face.

McIntyre stated he prayed for occasions like this. He made a t-shirt primarily based on the cemetery meme of a person celebrating anyone’s demise, with the “demise” being photoshopped to symbolize CM Punk’s WrestleMania most important occasion in 2024.

Brutal.

With Rollins taking part in the straight man to McIntyre’s new-and-improved gimmick, the feud solely acquired higher when Punk grew to become concerned. Punk’s tv return on the March 18 broadcast of WWE Uncooked led to a wild promo phase the place Punk, McIntyre and Rollins engaged in an unscripted battle of phrases that went off the hinges in ways in which made it really feel actual. At one level, Punk made a veiled reference to disgraced former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon to remind (and mock) McIntyre about McMahon anointing Drew as The Chosen One. The alternate resulted in Punk asserting himself as a particular visitor commentator for this world title tilt, giving this feud an additional gear that I didn’t even understand it wanted.

Ultimately, McIntyre acquired his second, however so did Damian Priest who waited just below 300 days to money in his Señor Cash within the Financial institution briefcase on the excellent second.

As a result of timing is every little thing.
