WWE star Drew McIntyre recently shared his thoughts on one of the most legendary stars in the company. He spoke about the most violent, aggressive superstar he's shared the ring with.

The Celtic Warrior recently completed 15 years in the company. During this time, he carved out a Hall of Fame-worthy career with the company. He is a four-time World Champion and has also won the United States Championship, the Tag Team Championships, the Royal Rumble match, Money in the Bank, and the 2012 King of the Ring.

In a recent video posted by WWE, McIntyre claimed Sheamus was the hardest-hitting star he ever faced. He felt the Irishman's move set was brutal and hurt a lot. The Scottish Warrior acknowledged that he took several of those stiff moves and no one worked a more brutal style than his former rival.

"Number one, absolutely. No question about it. He is the hardest-hitting professional wrestler in the history of potentially professional wrestling. Deadly punches, deadly forearms, I've taken all those strikes and overall, Sheamus is number one." [From 0:26 to 0:40]

Drew McIntyre is in a rivalry with CM Punk

While Drew McIntyre has put on several classics with Sheamus, the star is currently embroiled in a very personal battle against CM Punk.

He recently ambushed Punk on SmackDown and left the star bleeding. The former World Heavyweight Championship then showed up on RAW and gloated about punishing the Straight Edge Superstar for ruining his title opportunity at Clash at the Castle.

Drew McIntyre also uploaded a video on social media, where he mentioned that any action from Punk would be met with a violent reaction. He cussed out the former AEW star and called him stupid for his actions. The Scotsman claimed that he would keep beating down the star if he meddled in his business again.
