I honestly think the countdown is unoriginal and a little lame, but as long as the crowd is reacting to him doing it, I'm all for it. Plus he's so charismatic he sells it pretty well.
I think it takes away from the best part of the Claymore which is that he can hit it at any time but the Mania crowd will eat it up when he goes to drop Brock

Down since day one.....apart from the time he got beat up by his ex.....I eventually got over it.
Would’ve been a 10 time Champion had that not happened

Well, I'm just glad he's finally getting his due. About damn time. I've been a fan of his since the beginning, so it was frustrating seeing him get nothing.

Ima start a petition to have Josiah rap Drew out to this cover at 'Mania :Orton3:


I read in an interview recently Drew has said he wants to bring back Broken Dreams. It would be sick if he could or even this version, either way I’d be happy.

I’ve been a fan since I first saw him in WWE. I’m glad that he’s finally getting his time to shine

Realistically, I could see them playing the beginning of Broken Dreams and it fading into his current theme.

I would be happy with ANYTHING bc I loved "Broken Dreams" so much despite the valid arguments that it starts too slow and doesn't make for a good wrestling theme :side:

The original was def better, but that's my favorite Wrestle and Flow remix Josiah ever did and I would be hyped AF if he came out to that lmao I think Cwalker has a great idea with Broken Dreams leading into his new theme as well which I also think would be lit af.

I would be so hype if Broken Dreams was brought back. Still genuinely one of the best wrestling themes, and a great song on it's own to boot. I LOVE the bit where the beat kicks in, when it goes "out of time, so say goodbye" :dancing:

Drew finally got a new shirt! And it's pretty cool!

Right now they only have it in the original men's fit, so I'mma wait till they put a women's one up. But I am DEF buying this, I've been waiting for more Drew merch for ages! :mark:

Very happy for Drew. I remember being a little worried when he first came back. The guy looked great, and I just wasn't sure if WWE was going to screw it up. But they gave him a great World Title run, and he's easily one of the top guys there. So, yeah, happy for the dude.

My only wish is he'd been able to have his run with the crowds in 2020. He deserved it and it was just super unfortunate.

Yeah the only real downside of his main event run was he didn’t get to win the Title in front of people either time.

But that Rumble win was in front of crowds and I know that has to hold a special place in his heart.

That pop when he hit the claymore kick on Brock. :owens3 Got to be one of the happiest crowds I've ever heard. Made him feel legit right there.

One of the best Rumbles ever imo, booked how it should have been and Edge's return too. They really built up to Drew coming out and selling him as a threat.

Might as well freshen this up a bit...lol.

He's one hell of a worker there's no doubt about that. And honestly should have won at least one title at Clash. I kinda feel like it was a bit of a slap in the face that he didn't win at least one with all the work he puts in. It was the least they could do with how lackluster of a WrestleMania he got when he won the title. He's got a wicked sense of humor when he's able to show it and have a good laugh with The New Day.
