Summary

Drew McIntyre addressed fan behavior during WrestleMania 42 week with a public statement on X, thanking the people who approached him respectfully while criticizing those who crossed the line around his family.

McIntyre said some fans rushed him and his family at the hotel, kept their children up until 2 a.m. to push them in front of him, and put cameras in his face without asking. The post came during a week when fan access and hotel security were already under discussion around WWE's biggest event of the year.

It also came shortly after Drew McIntyre and Jacob Fatu tore through a WrestleMania 42 brawl, keeping McIntyre in the spotlight even after his in-ring weekend wrapped up.

"For those fans who spent hard earned money on a chance to say hello, take a photo, have something signed, or give me one of my many, many bracelets, I appreciate each and every single one of you.

To those who rushed my family and I in the hotel, kept your kids up till 2am throwing them in front of us, or shoved a camera in my face without asking, you're lucky I'm a calm natured person outside the ring. Please don't do that ever again."

Drew McIntyre's post raises more WrestleMania week security questions

McIntyre's message puts the focus back on how WWE talent and their families are handled during WrestleMania week. When a top star says his family was rushed at a hotel, it suggests the usual balance between fan access and basic privacy was not maintained.

That matters beyond one bad interaction. WrestleMania week turns hotels, appearances, and surrounding events into a major fan draw, and comments like these increase the likelihood of tighter security and fewer uncontrolled run-ins between talent and fans at future marquee weekends.
