The Scot originally signed with the WWE in 2007.

Back in his earlier days, the future WWE champion was clean-shaven while having flowing hair.

Fast forward to the present and the 38-year-old has his trademark beard and locks while sporting plenty of hair across his body.

The massive McIntyre also weighs in at 265lbs, compared to his muscular, yet less-as-imposing self.

He was released by Vince McMahon's promotion in 2014.

Prior to getting rehired by WWE in 2017, McIntyre decided to turn his life around and switch to a healthier diet while also cutting down on his drinking.

In an interview with Daily Record, McIntyre discussed how dieting first reshaped his physique.

"I started putting in the work like crazy and eating properly.

"Whenever someone tells you that it's mostly diet, not training, it's 100 percent true.

"You need the training but it's the diet."

He came back to the WWE in 2017 as an intimidating figure but suffered a gruesome bicep tear later that year.

Before his Wrestlemania appearance in 2020, McIntyre revealed his difficult daily gym schedule.

He starts his regime with a barbell bench press, with three sets of eight, six, and four reps.

The WWE veteran then focuses on the dumbells as he achieves 24 chest fly's before doing another three sets of bench presses.

Next up are three sets of eight banded pulldowns, before getting back on the bicep work with 24 curls on each arm.

And finally, McIntyre closes out the workouts with a brutal set of 21s bicep curls.
