McDonald, born Charles Shaw, first got into wrestling when friend of his who ran a school in
Perth for wayward children was promoting a wrestling show to make funds for the school. Ian Law who held a splinter claim to the British Middleweight Championship at the time (the main lineage being held by Brian "Goldbelt" Maxine) was helping his friend run the show. One of the wrestlers had been seriously injured two weeks out from the show and a friend asked McDonald if he would stand in for the injured man. McDonald had a two-week crash course before first pro match against
Wild Angus, The match lasted 5 rounds with Angus beating McDonald by the final bell. McDonald stayed in Scotland wrestling for another year after that first match, in April 1984 he went down to England to work for
Joint Promotions, the biggest promoters at that time (in the United Kingdom). The next five years saw McDonald wrestle against the likes of
Ray Steele and Gill Singh and become a frequent face on
ITV's televised wrestling coverage. Outside of the ring, McDonald would also develop friendships with the likes of
Danny Boy Collins,
Fit Finlay and referee Jeff Kaye. McDonald at one point would join the army at the Guards Depot at
Pirbright where he joined with the
Scots Guards. During his time there he met
Dave Taylor, later of
WCW fame, who had enlisted in the same regiment as McDonald, as a bandsman on the same day. A match screened as part of ITV's 1984 FA Cup Final coverage saw McDonald team with
Big Daddy to defeat
Giant Haystacks and Finlay. Three years later, he adopted the persona of the masked Spoiler, managed by the German Doctor Monika Kaiser, played by his lifelong partner, Monika Markwart. A subsequent match pitting the Spoiler and Rasputin (Shawn Doyle) against Daddy and Jason "Kashmir" Singh saw the Spoiler again unmasked and this time identified clearly as McDonald. A rematch between the four with a "Hair vs Hair" stipulation ended in the defeated McDonald being shaved bald. He would retain this look for all his remaining matches on ITV. In 2012, he appeared for
Insane Championship Wrestling at
Insane in the Membrane where he teamed with
Grado and
Wolfgang in a losing effort against
Damian O'Connor, Jamie Feerick and Scott Maverick. His last match took place at GL1 Gloucester Leisure Centre in 2013 Drew worked for an independent crowd management company called The SES Group – Show and Event as a security manager ==Death==
