McIntyre, who is making his acting debut in The Killer’s Game , expressed his excitement about the opportunity to work alongside Bautista, a veteran in both wrestling and Hollywood.

Reflecting on his early days in WWE, McIntyre fondly recalled Bautista's guidance. "When I arrived in WWE in 2007, Dave was already a star, and I was just a kid who knew nothing. He helped me navigate not just WWE, but also life in general. He was there as a friend and mentor, especially since I was just picked up from Scotland and thrown into this new world."
McIntyre highlighted the contrast between his early wrestling career and his current acting endeavors. Despite his nerves about the film industry, Bautista's support provided much-needed reassurance. "Fast-forward to now, and it’s surreal to see how Dave, who has achieved so much in Hollywood, is guiding me once again. The experience on set was unreal. WWE prepares you for a lot, and it seems like it prepares you for almost anything in life. But specifically, this world of acting—Dave really helped calm my nerves when the camera started rolling."
In sum, Drew McIntyre's journey from WWE to acting has been significantly influenced by Dave Bautista’s mentorship. Bautista's role in his career, both in wrestling and now in film, underscores the profound impact that seasoned veterans can have on rising stars. As McIntyre continues to explore new avenues in his career, his admiration and gratitude for Bautista’s guidance remain evident.
