Sportskeeda’s Tom Colohue revealed various details about Drew Gulak’s status on the latest edition of the Dropkick DiSKussions podcast. Tom Colohue told host Korey Gunz that Gulak wasn’t happy with his previous role in 205 Live when he was booked as Enzo Amore’s sidekick.
Gulak was sent to NXT and his work under the Black and Gold banner impressed many people. The Superstar was then rewarded with a push on 205 Live before being sent to SmackDown. Drew Gulak and the WWE had begun negotiating a deal when he moved to the Blue Brand, however, both sides were unable to come to an agreement.
The original plan was for him to go out on his back, which is how all outgoing talents are sent off in Vince McMahon’s company.
The plan changed when Daniel Bryan pitched a new storyline idea featuring Gulak and WWE officials felt that the angle would help convince Drew Gulak to extend his stay in the company.
The master of PowerPoint presentations didn’t change his mind and chose to see out his contract.
WWE will pitch contract offers to Drew Gulak
Tom did note that the WWE management still thinks highly of Drew Gulak and they do plan on pitching him contract offers. However, the fans shouldn’t expect Gulak to be back soon as the company wouldn’t want to offer him a raise on the back of its mass release drive.
WWE will still attempt to convince Drew Gulak to sign a new deal as they understand his value and potential as a performer.
Tom explained the following:
It may all come down to the money and if WWE puts forth the right offer, then we could see Gulak back on SmackDown soon enough. Will that happen or will Gulak get snapped up by another big promotion? Let us know your opinions in the comments section.
