Drew McIntyre Makes Grand Entrance at WWE Wrestlemania with Ulster Scottish Pipe Band
The Scottish Warrior Enters the Ring to the Sound of Tradition
At the grand stage of WWE Wrestlemania 40, Scottish wrestler Drew McIntyre made a captivating entrance that reverberated with the proud traditions of his homeland. The Ulster Scottish Pipe Band (USPB) filled the air with the stirring notes of “Scotland the Brave” as McIntyre, also known as “The Chosen One,” strode into the ring at the Lincoln Financial Field stadium in Philadelphia.
A Century-Old Legacy of Pipe Bands
The USPB has its roots in a band founded by John A Hall Sr in 1922 after he emigrated from Cookstown, Northern Ireland. Originally known as the Philadelphia Ulster Pipe Band, it has been a beacon of Scottish heritage in the United States for over a century.
Under the leadership of Pipe Major Traci Cooper, the daughter of former band leader Thomas Hall, and current Pipe Major Eric Ouellette, the USPB continues to honor the legacy of its founders. Their performance at Wrestlemania showcased the indomitable spirit and musical artistry of Scottish pipe and drum bands.
Wrestlemania’s Blockbuster Event
Wrestlemania XL, the most recent installment of the WWE’s flagship event, broke records for viewership and fan attendance. The two-night showcase drew a combined 145,298 fans and amassed over 660 million worldwide views.
McIntyre’s entrance was a highlight of the event, adding a touch of tradition and pageantry to the high-stakes competition. Despite ultimately losing the WWE World Heavyweight Championship to Damian Priest, his entrance will be remembered as a moment of pride for Scottish fans around the world.
