This past week has been a sad one for Drew McIntyre. One of his good friends from back home in Scotland, Adrian 'Lionheart' McCallum, sadly passed away aged just 36, and the entire UK wrestling community is in shock as a result.

It might not have been, but that Rock Bottom-like slam Drew used on Roman seemed like a version of the same finish Lionheart has been using for years on the British indy scene. He called it, 'You're A Fanny', and that could be Drew's subtle way of paying homage to a fallen mate.
