CHRIS SUTTON has hit new WWE champ Drew McIntyre with a Rangers jibe following his WrestleMania 36 victory.
Gers-daft McIntyre, nicknamed The Scottish Physcopath, upset the odds to claim victory in his showdown with Brock Lesnar.
And after his win he decided to call-out Hoops legend Sutton and Heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury.
Speaking to Laura Woods and Ally McCoist on talkSPORT this morning, he said: "I don't even know what to say, I'm sat here with the belt in America thinking what is life right now.
Well done chubby @DMcIntyreWWE on this👏👏...that’s one more title than your football team has won in a considerable amount of time (bar the Petroltank Cup)👍 https://t.co/2zOpv7YSlY

"I just became the first WWE champion - I just told my mate and I'm now about to speak to Ally McCoist about it.
"It's an incredible feeling. It would have been nice to have the 80,000 fans inside the stadium and my family but I'm still so proud.
"Hopefully - this is 19 years of work - it has put a smile on people's faces.
"When it gets backs to normal, the next thing I want to do is fight Chris Sutton.
"And Tyson Fury was talking trash, let him know I've won the belt and after I beat Sutton I'm coming for Fury."
Sutton then weighed in on the trash talk by sending a tweet to McIntyre having a pop at has Rangers allegiances.
He wrote: "Well done chubby @DMcIntyreWWE on this...that's one more title than your football team has won in a considerable amount of time (bar the Petroltank Cup)."
The tweet has already racked up thousands of likes from Celtic fans and they were quick to hail their hero.
One wrote: "Cracker big man."
A second said: "Brilliant Chris!"
And a third posted: Legend Chris."
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
