More Details On Drew Gulak Returning To WWE

So that’s what happened. Wrestlers can come and go from a wrestling promotion at the drop of a hat. That is a pretty common situation but it is a pretty fast turnaround to see someone leave WWE and be back in less than ten weeks. It isn’t something you see every day but it can make for a heck of a story. We have that taking place at the moment and now we have some more details.

Back on May 15, Drew Gulak lost to Daniel Bryan in the first round of a tournament for the vacant Intercontinental Title. The following day, news broke that Gulak was gone from WWE. That was quite the surprise, but less than two weeks later, more news came out that Gulak was already back in WWE. It sounds like something that has more to the story and now we know what it is.

According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Gulak did not accept any offers from other promotions during his time away. Since Gulak’s contract expired, he would have been allowed to wrestle for any promotion he wanted with no non-compete clause whatsoever. However, Gulak turned down all offers, suggesting that Gulak either already had a new deal with WWE or was on the verge of another one. Gulak will appear on this week’s SmackDown.

Gulak was on a roll before he left WWE. Check out the time before his very short time away:

Opinion: That is a nice thing to hear as WWE had put in some effort with Gulak and he was showcasing himself rather well. I’m not sure what WWE is going to be doing with him going forward, but it is clear that WWE wants to do something with him. There is a chance that he will never get a major push, but given what he has been doing as of late, it is at least getting further along than he was in recent weeks.

What do you think of Gulak? What will he be doing next? Let us know in the comments below.
