WWE Personnel Expect Star To ‘Be Gone’ After Accusation Made Against Him

WWE

Some people in WWE reportedly expected a member of the roster to “be gone” after a recent accusation that was made against him.

In an interview with NewsNation on April 2, Ronda Rousey claimed that Drew Gulak had once ‘grabbed the drawstring of her sweatpants’ backstage.

Rousey stated:

“I was standing there, and this guy who I was barely an acquaintance with grabs the string of my sweatpants as I’m walking by. Like, I wasn’t even looking at him. This guy grabs the string of my sweatpants, and nobody else reacts as if this is abnormal.

“He grabs it and he starts going down the hall and I’m just like, ‘What the f**k was that?’ Like, why are you grabbing the string of my sweatpants? If my husband was standing here next to me, would you feel comfortable walking up to me and grabbing the string of my sweatpants?

“But nobody around me acted as if it was abnormal. All the guys around me were just like, this is part of the day. And I’m like, if this guy is coming up to me and doing this kind of stuff to me when there’s other people around, what’s happening to these other girls when it’s not in a hallway or something like that? So that really put me on edge to like, not only is this behavior prevalent, but it’s so prevalent that people don’t even realize it’s a problem anymore.

“Drew Gulak, that’s who it was. I went and confronted him later and I was like, ‘If I ever hear about you putting your hands on any other woman like this or doing anything like this to me ever again, we’re gonna have a problem’.

“And he was like, ‘No no, I’m glad that you said something to me’. He just really like backpedaled and everything like that. But it just put a really sour taste in my mouth about the culture there and what’s considered acceptable, and how to touch and treat the women in the hallways, and anywhere.”

On the latest Wrestling Observer Radio, Bryan Alvarez reported that some people in WWE expected NXT star Gulak to be gone from the company after the accusation. Alvarez said:

“There were people today, or actually it was Tuesday, when this story came out, and there were people there that thought, ‘Man, Drew Gulak’s probably gonna be gone tomorrow’.”

As of this writing, there’s been no news of a departure happening and Gulak is still on WWE’s website roster page.

Responding to the claim from Rousey, Gulak tweeted:

Backstage at a WWE event in 2022, I saw Ronda talking with a group in the hallway. I stopped to say hi and shake all their hands, and in an attempt to shake her hand, I accidentally touched her drawstring. Complete accident, and one that I had apologized to her for the mishap.
