3) Road Dogg comments on Drew McIntyre

WWE Hall of Famer Road Dogg, also known as Brian James, spoke about Drew McIntyre on SportsKeeda's Wrestling Outlaws. James was asked if he thought McIntyre would have been an even bigger star during the Attitude Era. To that, James replied by saying that The Scottish Warrior doesn't have 'it' and would not have been a top star like he is today during the late 90s.

“Look, he doesn’t have ‘it’ enough. He’s a big dude that can go and he sounds like a beautiful big man – and he looks like that, too, by the way. It was a different deal in the Attitude Era. If you broke the curtain on a Monday Night RAW in the Attitude Era, you were on another level,'' said James

He admitted that while the former WWE Champion has improved a lot over the years, the Attitude Era was something special. However, Vince Russo countered James and stated that the Scot would have succeeded in any era, especially because of his looks.

2) Damian Priest on why Roman Reigns or Brock Lesnar have not faced him in WWE

Former US Champion Damian Priest recently spoke to SportsKeeda about his status in WWE and who he would like to face. The Judgment Day member said that he would love to face Brock Lesnar as the two of them would have a 'fight'. He also spoke about why The Big Dog Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar have never faced him.

"I don't think they are necessarily scared, but I don't know, maybe there is something like 'we don't need to go that way yet.' And there might be a reason for that," said Damian Priest.

Priest teamed up with his stable member Finn Balor to take on The Mysterios at SummerSlam. He lost the match due to his former mentor Edge making his return and exacting revenge on Balor and Priest, who had brutally attacked him on RAW a few weeks back.
