Does Drew McIntyre's link to Hawk Tuah Girl give him an edge over CM Punk?

Drew McIntyre is one of the superstars who has effectively utilized the power of social media to give their wrestling careers a sustained push. The Scottish Psychopath promotes his feud online by calling out his on-screen rivals. In this regard, he can be compared to the ‘internet greats’ who try to carry on with the fleeting fame that they receive.

The ‘Hawk Tuah Girl’ is one of the recent people to become famous on the internet. She can be seen actively trying to live on to her fame, making her similar to Drew McIntyre in one aspect.

Hailey Welsh went viral after an interview in which she described the NSFW sound that one’s esophagus makes while trying to spit. She is trying to catch up to her fame as she appears in different shows and was even present at a recent political conference. Tommy Dreamer talked about the positive side of this on the Busted Open Podcast. “That’s the world we live in. And you might as well capitalize on that because that type of fame is fleeting unless you continue to build from it. But in wrestling, you can continue to build off of that.

There have been times when The Scottish Warrior has mercilessly called out his opponents on social media.

Recently, he uploaded a post that could have made you laugh out loud if you had seen it before getting deleted.

Drew McIntyre uploads pictures with CM Punk’s old rival

Amidst his ongoing feud against CM Punk, Drew McIntyre is trying his best to get “The Best in the World” as angry as he can for their SummerSlam match. He already has the bracelet with the name of Punk’s wife and dog written on it. It doesn’t look like the Second City Saint will be getting it back anytime soon until he has won the PLE match in August. More importantly, McIntyre also met up with Jack Perry. Needless to say, the AEW wrestler has had issues with CM Punk in the past. So, when the former WWE Champion uploaded a picture with him on his socials, it was clearly a shot at the latter.

What’s your perspective on:

Does Drew McIntyre's link to Hawk Tuah Girl give him an edge over CM Punk?

Have an interesting take?

The story didn’t stop there. In case the “Voice of the Voiceless” wasn’t already fuming with anger, McIntyre’s post was appreciated by yet another wrestling superstar. He uploaded the iconic picture on his Instagram story after the WWE talent had deleted it to make sure that CM Punk didn’t forget what went down. This only made Drew McIntyre more popular among fans despite deleting the original post. The wrestler appears to be aware of the effect he is having on the internet, much like Hailey Welsh.

Do you see the similarity between them?
