Don't expect Drew McIntyre to scale the cage during Sunday's Hell In A Cell pay-per-view.

The reigning WWE Champion admitted during an interview with 'Busted Open Radio' that he was "terrified" when on top of the Cell during HIAC 2018. There, McIntyre ran in for a quick brawl with Dean Ambrose as Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman waged war in the ring below.

Drew said his "big-ass feet" made it difficult to climb the thing in the first place (even with WWE's handy foot holes), but he described coming back down as even scarier. McIntyre remembers holding on for dear life as his legs dangled awkwardly over the edge and he tried desperately to find one of those aforementioned holes.

He couldn't.

So, like he had done on the way up, Drew used his hands more than his feet and thought about what'd happen if he fell. Not only would that hurt, but it'd also steal some attention away from Brock Lesnar's main event run in.

McIntyre said he "felt like [his] fingers would fall off" after he was safely back on solid ground.
