It’s a gig. Being in the WWE is the pinnacle for a lot of wrestlers as it is the highest profile wrestling promotion in the world. Getting to be on one of WWE’s television shows means that you have done something right in your career and are pretty far ahead of a lot of wrestlers. However, it can be difficult to get television time, but now someone else is getting a chance in a different way.
This week’s edition of SmackDown featured Drew Gulak auditioning to be a member of the broadcast team, including a backstage interview, plus an interview in the ring with Charlotte. During the Charlotte interview, Gulak suggested that Ronda Rousey made her tap out at Wrestlemania, causing Charlotte to put him in the Figure Eight until Gulak tapped out and screamed that he quit. There is no word on if this is an angle or Gulak switching to a new role in WWE. His last televised singles match was on the June 7, 2021 edition of Monday Night Raw, though he has also wrestled on Main Event.
Opinion: I’m not sure what Gulak is doing, but it would be nice to see what he can do if given the chance. He is a talented guy who has shown the ability to get a reaction in the ring so let him out there to see what he can do. That being said, even being a broadcaster is better than nothing, though I would hope that this is the start of an angle for him rather than a permanent switch.
What do you think of Gulak? How could he be used in WWE? Let us know in the comments below.
