SCOTS WWE superstar Drew McIntyre has left fans in stitches after recreating the famous Trainspotting Choose Life monologue with a unique twist.
The 39-year-old from Ayr, South Ayrshire was back in Scotland ahead of the WWE’s first premium live event Clash at the Castle taking place at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow.
McIntyre took the opportunity to spend time with friends and family whilst back in Scotland but still found a moment to film the hilarious clip last week before squaring off against World Heavyweight champion Damian Priest.
The clip shows McIntyre as he saunters through the Townhead area of Glasgow and passes several famous Scottish landmarks.
Video begins as the Scottish Psychopath walks towards the camera before smirking and heading off down a flight of stairs.
He begins his monologue stating: “Choose wrestling, choose chaos, choose traffic cones, choose Tunnock’s Teacakes and Mother’s Pride loaves.
“Choose the Big Yin, choose banana feet, choose patter, choose slaggings, choose Irn-Bru because Pepsi’s for dafties.”
As McIntyre crosses the road he is almost knocked over, copying the famous scene from Trainspotting which captures Ewan McGregor almost being taken out.
The driver of the motor in McIntyre’s case though, turns out to be none other than current ICW World Heavyweight Champion Jack Jester.
McIntyre gives his pal a cheeky grin through the windshield before continuing his stroll towards one of the most famous shops in all of Scotland.
The former WWE champion wanders towards the shop which was turned into Navid’s famous grocers in Still Game’s fictional community of Craiglang.
The Rangers supporter keeps his monologue running, saying: “Choose Jack, choose Victor, choose the slosh, choose string vests and tartan armchairs, choose Morton rolls, choose going out on a Friday and coming home on a Monday.
“Choose the Old Firm, choose blue or green, choose taps aff, choose your dad selling Avon, choose half a pizza crunch.”
As McIntyre continues his stroll through the top of Glasgow’s city centre he begins listing off some more well-known Scots food and drink including two well-known alcoholic beverages.
“Choose stovies, choose Buckfast and Mad-Dog, choose the Severe Malky, choose mon then and did ye aye?”
“Choose tattie scones, choose rock and roll because punk is dead, choose Scotland, choose the best city in the world.
“Choose Glasgow.”
The wrestling star shared the clip to social media last week with the caption: “Choose life, choose wrestling, choose Glasgow.”
His post received over 24,000 likes with hundreds of comments from fans who were willing him on to win the World Heavyweight title in his home country.
One said: “A homemade advertisement of Visit Glasgow, created by your future World Heavyweight Champion.”
Another added: “Choose Drew McIntyre.”
A third replied: “Announce Drew vs Begbie.”
Another commented: “Choose Drew McIntyre to win the World Heavyweight championship this afternoon.”
McIntyre looked set to take the gold on Saturday after hitting his patented Claymore Kick finishing move but rival CM Punk sporting a referee’s shirt ran to the ring and halted his count at two.
This left the Scotsman irate, and he backed Punk into a corner before receiving a low blow and being left devastated by Damian Priest’s South of Heaven finisher as the champion retained.
