Andrew McLean Galloway IV was born in Ayr on 6 June 1985.[3][4] He grew up in nearby Prestwick, where he studied at Prestwick Academy.[5] He considered being a professional football player when he was younger, playing for the youth club Prestwick Boys, normally in defensive positions. When he was 10 years old, Galloway read a magazine named X Factor, which focused on conspiracy theories and ghost stories; this prompted him to write a letter to the FBI under the Freedom of Information Act, to which the FBI responded by sending him a file with several documents.[6] A fan of professional wrestling as a child,[7] he started training at the age of 15, and his parents agreed to support him as long as he gave the same amount of focus to his studies.[8] He agreed and earned a master's degree in criminology from Glasgow Caledonian University.[4][8]
In 2003, Galloway made his debut for the inaugural show of British Championship Wrestling (BCW), operating in the Greater Glasgow area. While there, he trained under Colin McKay and Spinner McKenzie,[2] then developing the character of "Thee" Drew Galloway, a cocky narcissist.[9] His first match, which took place at February's No Blood, No Sympathy: Night 1, saw him lose to Stu Natt.[10] He picked up his first win on the second night in a tag team match alongside Wolfgang, defeating Blade and Stu Pendous.[11] By December, Galloway was managed by Charles Boddington, who aided him in his first significant success and managed him for the next four years.
Later that year, Galloway had a series of matches against American veterans. In June, he lost to The Honky Tonk Man[12] and later that month lost to Marty Jannetty and Highlander, with Sabotage on his side.[13] In November, at the aptly titled Lo Down, Galloway main evented in a double countout match against D'Lo Brown.[14] He then had a brief series of feuds, as in March 2005, he defeated Jay Phoenix[15] but their rematch in November, officiated by Mick Foley, ended in a no contest.[16] In May 2006, after their lengthy feud in Irish Whip Wrestling, Galloway lost then won in successive matches against long-term rival Sheamus O'Shaunessy.[17][18]
Independent circuit (2006–2007)
In November 2006, Galloway and Lionheart defeated BCW Heavyweight Champion Highlander and Wolfgang at Live in East Kilbride, after Galloway pinned Highlander.[19] At December's No Blood, No Sympathy IV event, Galloway defeated Highlander in an "I Quit" match with Conscience as the special guest referee to win his second BCW Heavyweight Championship.[20] He held the title through 2007, with successful defenses against the likes of Martin Stone, Allan Grogan and Lionheart, before vacating the title when he relocated to the United States in September.[3]
After gaining momentum in Scotland, Galloway began wrestling dates across the Republic of Ireland with Irish Whip Wrestling (IWW). With Boddington still in his corner, he competed in three contests during his first appearance on 23 July 2005 for Whiplash TV.[9] After losing to "SOS" Sheamus O'Shaunessy,[21] he found a similar fate against Mad Man Manson, sparking a feud between the two.[9] Despite these two losses, his status abroad meant he was already booked in a Ten-Man Gauntlet match to determine the top contender for the main title, but lost to Vic Viper.[21] At Gym Wars the following day, Manson was absent, so Galloway tried to avenge his loss with O'Shaunessy, which ended in a double count-out. Over the next few months, he recruited various wrestlers, even his manager Boddington, in a series of tag team and handicap tag team matches against Manson and his teams.[22] He picked up his first victory in October against Sean South in a warm-up for that event's main event six-man tag team match.[22] The rivalry between Galloway and Manson was settled in a Street Fight at IWW's final show from the SFX Theatre in November, which Galloway lost, although he earned praise for his tenacity and endurance.[9][23]
Galloway was soon given a shot at the IWW International Heavyweight Championship, owing to his show stealing performances with Manson.[9] On 28 January 2006, he received his first title match against O'Shaunessy, evolving their rivalry from previous battles.[24] The rivalry quickly took on a patriotic flavour, with Galloway's blue colours of Scotland clashing with O'Shaunessy's green colours of Ireland, mirroring the Old Firmfootballderby between Glasgow Rangers and Glasgow Celtic, respectively.[9] This football allusion became particularly prominent when the two met again at Verona Football Club once again for the title; although the match changed into a Lumberjack match, the result and champion remained the same.[25] A two out of three falls match against the champion took place on 18 March, in which O'Shaunessy won two falls to one;[26] the next day produced the same result.[27] With their rivalry intensifying, his next challenge to O'Shaunessy was given the stipulation of a Last Man Standing match, but he retained the title,[28] as he also did in June with the same stipulation.[29]
On 27 August 2006, Galloway finally managed to defeat O'Shaunessy, winning the IWW International Heavyweight Championship.[30] He successfully defended the belt that evening against Go Shiozaki.[9][29] However, unable to commit to fully defending the title due to other bookings in his homeland and his academic studies, he was forced to relinquish the championship in January 2007.[9][31]
While BCW became his home promotion and he made regular appearances for IWW, Galloway made several appearances around the independent circuit. In 2004, he appeared for the fledgling International Pro Wrestling: United Kingdom (IPW:UK) at their aptly titled Show 2.[32] Despite losing to Aviv Maayan in his first showing,[33] by the time he returned in May 2005 his reputation made him notorious enough to compete in their main event five-way elimination match to determine the best of British heavyweights. Galloway was eliminated first by Andy Boy Simmonz with a small package pin.[34] In between studying, Galloway competed in several tours of All Star Wrestling against competitors including TJ Wilson, PN Neuz, Chad Collyer and Brody Steele during 2006.[3][35] On 15 October 2006, Galloway competed in the Insane Championship Wrestling (ICW) debut show Fear & Loathing, defeating Darkside and Allan Grogan in a three-way 30-minute Iron Man match to become the first ICW Heavyweight Champion. He held the title for 280 days, ultimately losing it to Darkside on 22 July 2007 in a five-man elimination match that also involved Jack Jester, Wolfgang and Liam Thomson.
Despite it being his only match (he was used twice) for NWA: Scottish Wrestling Alliance (NWA:SWA), Galloway represented Team SWA against Team Sinner in the titular match for the March 2006 Clan Wars event, being eliminated first by Highlander, who was using the ropes.[36] At the end of the month, he appeared at the inaugural event for Premier British Wrestling (PBW), earning a shot to become the first PBW Heavyweight Champion by defeating Allan Grogan, but lost to Wolfgang in the main event. In October, he was entered into a contendership match to win another chance at the title, but lost to Dave Moralez.[37] Galloway's reputation continued to precede him as he was placed in the Real Quality Wrestling (RQW) Not Just For Christmas 2006 tournament to crown the inaugural RQW Heavyweight Champion. Representing IWW and having made his IWW Title defence against Fleisch earlier in the year, Galloway faced SAS Wrestling's El Ligero,[38] going through to the semi-final only to lose to One Pro Wrestling's Pac by count-out. He continued to appear in April 2007, taking his rivalry with O'Shaunessy to London with a double count-out[39] which led to a rematch in June where Galloway picked up the victory in a Street Fight. Later on that evening, having made a statement with his win over O'Shaunessy, Galloway attacked the RQW Heavyweight Champion Martin Stone during his title defence against Takeshi Rikio.[40] This attack led to his final match in the UK at August's Summer Brawl, which he lost.[41] His last appearance was serving as a referee for PBW on 15 September in a match that saw Darkside defeat Lionheart to become a contender for the championship.[42]
Galloway appeared on the inaugural Insane Championship Wrestling show, promoted by a young Mark Dallas.[43] Galloway won a triple threat match over Darkside and Allan Grogan to become the first-ever ICW Heavyweight Champion.[44] He successfully defended the title against Wolfgang and Allan Grogan,[45][46] before losing the title to Darkside in a five-man match which also included Jack Jester, Wolfgang and Liam Thomson, ending his reign at 280 days.[47]
World Wrestling Entertainment/WWE (2007–2014)
Beginnings (2007–2008)
Galloway signed with WWE in late 2007 and made his official debut on 12 October 2007 episode of SmackDown! under the modified ring name of Drew McIntyre. Accompanied by his on-screen mentor Dave Taylor, McIntyre defeated Brett Major with a roll-up, establishing himself as a villainous character.[48] The next week, he defeated Brian Major with the help of Taylor.[49] At the beginning of 2008, McIntyre was separated from Taylor and moved to the Rawbrand, making his official debut on 6 January episode of Heat as a face, defeating Charlie Haas.[50]
In September 2007, McIntyre went to Louisville for Ohio Valley Wrestling, with his first match being a dark match after OVW TV, where he took on another developmental talent from the UK, "The Ripper" Paul Burchill.[51] Despite Drew not being involved in a great deal of noteworthy feuds during his time in OVW—mainly due to the fact that he was splitting time between being on the road with WWE, while still having to report to developmental in OVW—he still wrestled regularly on OVW TV & non-televised live events in the Kentuckiana area. Drew formed a tag team with the future Wade Barrett—known as Stu Sanders at the time—forming the "Brit Pack".[51] In February 2008, WWE announced they would be pulling their contract with OVW and owner Nightmare Danny Davis; as a result, it would no longer be a part of WWE's developmental system.
Florida Championship Wrestling (2008–2009)
After his short stint on WWE's main roster, McIntyre was moved to WWE's developmental territoryFlorida Championship Wrestling (FCW). He reformed his team with Stu Sanders, now going under the name of The Empire. In April, they took on The Puerto Rican Nightmares (Eric Pérez and Eddie Colón) who won the match and a title shot at the FCW Florida Tag Team Championship.[52] Once The Nightmares won the championship, The Empire received two consecutive chances to win the FCW Florida Tag Team Championship on 6 May.[53] Their first title defence was against McIntyre's old rival Sheamus O'Shaunessy, but his partner "Sterling Jack" Gabriel accidentally hit them and The Empire capitalised to retain their championship.[52] The Empire lost the championship on 17 July to Joe Hennig and Gabe Tuft.[53] On 16 August, The Empire imploded when McIntyre faced Sanders in a singles match which ended in a double countout and their rematch at the end of September ended in a time limit draw.[52]
On 7 October, McIntyre was entered into a contest for the FCW Florida Heavyweight Championship and defeated Tuft to make it into the finals, but lost to Eric Escobar (the former Eric Peréz). McIntyre closed out the year with an unsuccessful attempt to gain the FCW Florida Heavyweight Championship in a four-way match, but Escobar won the title from O'Shaunessy.[54]
Going into 2009, McIntyre entered into a rivalry with Joe Hennig. Their first match in February ended in a double countout, leading to McIntyre interfering in Hennig's match the following week, costing him the match. On 26 February, Hennig defeated McIntyre then won the FCW Florida Heavyweight Championship from Escobar.[55] Their feud ended abruptly when Hennig vacated the title after an injury, causing McIntyre to be elevated into title contendership, defeating Escobar for the vacant championship on 19 March. McIntyre lost the title to Tyler Reks (the former Gabe Tuft) on 11 June.[54] On 25 June, McIntyre was set to team with O'Shaunessy against the returning Hennig and DJ Gabriel (the aforementioned "Sterling Jack" Gabriel), but when neither team would work together, a four-way was booked, which O'Shaunessy won. McIntyre and O'Shaunessy both failed to win back the FCW Florida Heavyweight Championship in mid-July from Reks. McIntyre received a singles opportunity the next day with the same result.[55]
Intercontinental Champion (2009–2010)
McIntyre returned to SmackDown on 28 August 2009, attacking R-Truth.[56] One month later, he was pushed when WWE chairman Mr. McMahon promoted him as a "future world champion", going by the nickname "The Chosen One".[57] He defeated R-Truth on 4 October at Hell in a Cell[58] and participated at Survivor Series on The Miz's team for the traditional Survivor Series elimination match on 22 November. McIntyre, The Miz and his former rival Sheamus were the surviving members on their winning team.[59]
Being the only SmackDown superstar to survive against Team Morrison, McIntyre defeated John Morrison for the Intercontinental Championship at TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs (TLC) on 13 December.[60] He retained the title against Morrison on 1 January 2010 episode of SmackDown and against Kane on 21 February at Elimination Chamber, using underhanded tactics.[61][62] His televised undefeated record ended in a Money in the Bank qualifying match against Kane on 26 February episode of SmackDown,[63] but Mr McMahon forced SmackDown's general manager Teddy Long to expunge the loss. This happened again with Matt Hardy[64] before McIntyre qualified for the ladder match by pinning an unsigned wrestler.[65] McIntyre failed to win the Money in the Bank match on 28 March at WrestleMania XXVI, his first WrestleMania appearance.[66] McIntyre continuously attacked Hardy until he was stripped of his title by Long on 7 May and suspended for the purposes of the storyline.[67] However, McMahon decreed he be reinstated as champion the following week, undermining Long's authority and developing tension between McIntyre and Long.[68]
McIntyre lost the Intercontinental Championship to Kofi Kingston—who had won a tournament to determine the new champion—at Over the Limit on 23 May, ending his reign at 161 days.[69] However, he still used his relationship with McMahon to bully Long, publicly humiliating and forcing Long to lie down for him for their match.[70] At Fatal 4-Way on 20 June, McIntyre faced Kingston in a rematch for the title. During the match, Long took over as the referee and refused to make the three count when McIntyre had the match won. A vengeful Matt Hardy then attacked McIntyre, leading to Kingston winning the match and retaining the championship.[71] On 21 June episode of Raw, The Nexus attacked McMahon, which removed him from television for a prolonged period and ended McIntyre's preferential treatment.[72] After losing to Hardy on 25 June episode of SmackDown, Long informed McIntyre that his work visa had expired and that he would be deported back to Scotland immediately.[73] This storyline had a basis in reality, since Galloway's visa had indeed expired and he was taken off television.[74] He returned two weeks later and was re-instated after being made to beg Long.[75]
Tag Team Champion and losing streak (2010–2012)
On 19 September, McIntyre and Cody Rhodes won the WWE Tag Team Championship in a five-team tag team turmoil match at Night of Champions, allowing them to appear on both brands.[76] McIntyre and Rhodes successfully defended the titles twice against The Hart Dynasty.[77][78] At Bragging Rights on 24 October, McIntyre and Rhodes lost the titles to The Nexus (John Cena and David Otunga) and dissolved their team.[79] On 21 November, at Survivor Series, McIntyre participated in a 5-on-5 traditional Survivor Series tag team match as a member of Team Del Rio against Team Mysterio. He was the final man remaining on his team before being eliminated by Big Show.[80] McIntyre entered the 40-man Royal Rumble match on 30 January 2011, but was eliminated by Big Show.[81] At Elimination Chamber on 20 February, he participated in the SmackDown Elimination Chamber match for the World Heavyweight Championship, but was eliminated by Kane.[82]
On 26 April, McIntyre was drafted to the Raw brand as part of the 2011 supplemental draft.[83] On 15 December episode of Superstars, McIntyre defeated Justin Gabriel, earning him a contract with SmackDown.[84] He began wrestling on SmackDown on 30 December and resumed his tense relationship with general manager Theodore Long, who put pressure on McIntyre to win matches to justify his contract. McIntyre subsequently began an eight match losing streak going into the new year,[85] after the last of which, Long fired McIntyre within the storyline.[86] A week later, McIntyre was reinstated by guest general manager John Laurinaitis and finally ended his losing streak by defeating Hornswoggle.[87] He was subsequently included on Laurinaitis' team in the 12-man tag team match at WrestleMania XXVIII on 1 April, helping to earn Laurinaitis control of both Raw and SmackDown.[88] He continued to lose matches and was confined to Superstars and house shows, but was still able to make several appearances on Raw and SmackDown, albeit in squash matches.
When WWE rebranded its developmental territory, FCW, into NXT,[89] McIntyre was inserted into the Gold Rush Tournament to crown the inaugural NXT Champion, where he lost to the eventual winner Seth Rollins in the quarter-finals on 1 August episode of NXT.[90] McIntyre also participated in a number one contender fatal four-way elimination match on 7 November episode of NXT, but was eliminated by Bo Dallas.[91]
At Royal Rumble on 27 January 2013, McIntyre competed in the 30-man Royal Rumble match, but was eliminated by Chris Jericho.[98] On 12 April episode of SmackDown, in an attempt to make a name for themselves, 3MB tried to attack Triple H, but were attacked themselves by The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns).[99] On 15 April episode of Raw, 3MB called out The Shield, only for Brock Lesnar to come out instead and attack the group.[100] On 29 April episode of Raw, 3MB attacked The Shield, but The Shield quickly turned the tables on them. This resulted in Team Hell No chasing away The Shield, before attacking 3MB themselves.[101] In April 2014, McIntyre made his last appearance at WrestleMania XXX, competing in the André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.[102] On 12 June 2014, McIntyre was released from his WWE contract.[103]

When ICW started out, nobody believed in it and nobody believed in me except for one person (Galloway). ... He, without a shadow of a doubt, led the charge, always had my back ... in the wrestling business and out of it. Anytime ICW needed him, he came calling (just like he did tonight).
—Mark Dallas, ICW Hall of Fame Induction of Drew McIntyre/Galloway (Biggest Fight Club Taping Ever)[112]

After a brief hiatus, McIntyre returned on the 2 December episode of Raw, where he attacked Sami Zayn after Zayn's match with Seth "Freakin" Rollins.[309] On the 12 December episode of Raw, McIntyre revealed himself to be the one behind the backstage attack on Jey Uso the week prior, before attacking Zayn, after which Zayn would challenge McIntyre to a match at Saturday Night's Main Event,[310] which McIntyre won.[311] By then, McIntyre also renewed the feud with the original iteration of The Bloodline (also known as the "OG Bloodline") which led him appearing on both Raw and SmackDown in multiple occassions.[312]
Professional wrestling style and persona
McIntyre uses a running single leg dropkick called the Claymore as his finisher.[4] The move was created accidentally during a match when McIntyre was attempting a big boot, but since the leather pants he was wearing were too tight, he had to kick up with the other leg to avoid ripping them, knocking himself out in the process.[313] After the match, a road agent told him to figure out how to use the move again without killing himself.[314] He began using a countdown upon the execution of the move during a house show, which stuck after fans participated in the countdown.[315] McIntyre also uses a double underhook DDT called the Future Shock (originally called the Scot Drop),[56] and a headbutt called the Glasgow Kiss.[316]
In his early years on the independent circuit, he developed a narcissistic character and used "The One and Only" as his theme song.[4] Shortly after his main roster debut in WWE, McIntyre was labeled "The Chosen One" by Vince McMahon, who believed he was a future world champion.[57] His character took a more comedic turn upon joining the 3MB faction in 2012, as he continuously lost matches.[317]
During his feud with CM Punk in 2024 (having stemmed from his legitimate long-time disdain towards the latter), McIntyre received a boost on social media for his "hater" mannerisms, using online platforms such as X to enhance his feuds and embracing the role of a "keyboard warrior" through online trolling and increased promo rate.[318] His heel turn in the fall of 2023 has been praised for his interactions with several top stars within more layered storyline callbacks that have his character "speaking his truth" despite being the villain.[319]
Galloway became engaged to American professional wrestler Taryn Terrell in July 2009,[334][335] while both working for WWE and they married in Las Vegas in May 2010.[336][337] They divorced in May 2011.[338] Galloway met doctor Kaitlyn Frohnapfel at a bar in 2013 and they married on 10 December 2016.[4] They currently reside in Nashville, Tennessee, having previously lived in Tampa, Florida.[339]
Galloway's mother, Angela, died on 3 November 2012, at the age of 51 after suffering from cerebellar ataxia.[4][340]
Galloway is a supporter of Scottish football club Rangers.[8][341]
On 2 June 2023, Galloway announced that he had become an American citizen.[342]
