Back in the dark days of 2020, wrestling was only really trying to survive the closed-door days and get everybody talking.

0:09.6

It did that, but not always for the most glowing of reasons.

0:13.3

2020 was a trip, people, and here is the absolute worst of it.

0:17.3

I am Gareth, this is What Culture Wrestling, and here are the 25 worst wrestling

0:22.1

moments of 2020. Buckle up. Number 25, Drew McIntyre's first reign ends with no fans.

0:29.8

Timing is everything, my friend. Drew McIntyre winning the WWE title in front of exactly

zero punters at WrestleMania 36 sucked for him,

0:39.7

but the Scots showed himself to be a true leader by refusing to moan about it.

1:18.9

Incredibly, Drew would have to wait until 2026 for that feeling, more than half a decade later.

1:24.3

His entrance on the 16th of January edition of Smackdown this year was personally

1:28.7

satisfying. It was the first time the big man had strolled to the ring holding that belt in front of a

1:33.5

sellout crowd, and it had to feel good. Good for Drew. Seeing him dance around the ring like an

1:39.5

excited teenager after winning the 2020 Royal Rumble contrasted mightily with the sound of a giant

1:46.2

fan accompanying his first title win at Mania 36 inside the quaint performance centre.
