Drew McIntyre failed to win the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship from Roman Reigns in the main event of WWE Clash At The Castle 2022.

The UK event had heavily promoted McIntyre, and many fans were expecting him to win, especially since there were reports before the event that WWE considered having Reigns drop at least one of his titles.

However, WWE stuck to their long-term plan with Reigns as the champion instead of giving McIntyre the triumphant moment that would have thrilled the fans.

Following the loss, McIntyre performed with Tyson Fury, which was not planned to be part of the broadcast.

On a recent edition of the “Insight” podcast, McIntyre stated that it was a challenging night for him and admitted that singing with Fury was the most embarrassing moment of his career. Despite this, he believes WWE made the right decision.

McIntyre said, "You look at certain moments, and in the moment when you're living them, you're like, 'This is ridiculous. We should have found a way out of this. [Austin] Theory could have cashed in, and I could have pinned him,' because we had to protect The Bloodline and Roman at that time. So it's the top story in the company, the top character. And perhaps at that time, I was like, 'Just feel this is a bad move.' The thing with Tyson Fury. That was stupid. There's no excuse for that. That's the worst moment in my entire career. We did the bit, the song, and then I told him, 'Hey, you want to sing Sweet Caroline,' because British fans one, they're upset. I just lost. Two, they don't know American Pie. He was like, 'Nah, I'm not gonna fight here.'…….And I figured we're off the air. That's what I started doing Oasis bit and singing…..just got the crowd going. And I was like, 'Ah, this sucks, but we're off the air.' Then I found out we were still on the air, and it was a whole thing."
