Eventually, Drew did get what 'Taker meant.

He's since settled into a leader role, and he's not shy about trying to help the rest of the card himself. There's a cool example during 'Sessions' that shows McIntyre yelling, "Hey all you cool cats and kittens" as he makes his way to the ring for the opening segment of the 20 April 2020 Raw.

McIntyre, again being honest, admits that he asked his wife what was topical outside the wrestling industry around that time. She pointed towards Netflix sensation Tiger King, which is why Drew bellowed that line. He thought it might cause a stir on social media, become an instant meme and thus get some more eyes on the rest of the show.

That comedic moment was actually a selfless act, one designed to elevate the WWE product and maybe grab some easy attention from folks browsing Twitter. It's highly likely that McIntyre never thought he'd be quoting Tiger King as WWE Champ in 2020, but there you go.
