He's not a top guy in any promotion that I'd watch. He's a great technical wrestler though and he'll be stellar no matter where he winds up.
WWE not giving anyone a raise right now is really interesting. Vince must really be worried about the tv money OR they're pinching pennies to make more profit and blaming the pandemic. His segments are the only things from SmackDown that I've looked up and they obviously have no desire for actual wrestlers.

All they’re ever interested is the gimmicky fake wrestlers like Daniel Bryan, Bray Wyatt, Brock Lesnar and Drew McIntyre.

funny how i have opinions and get attacked, yet you dont see me running over to everyone else's to tell them they are wrong. people just love looking for things to argue about, smh. "drew gulak sucks" thats my opinion. i've been watching wrestling, wrestlers and the WWE for 30 years, so i have plenty of background to form my opinions. im not a troll looking for a fight, nor am i an idiot or uneducated message board mod. i have never found a single thing drew gulak did to be entertaining or enjoying. the guy is bland as white rice. you're only allowed to have opinions here if it falls in line with what the majority thinks. otherwise, you're wrong I think it was more of the wording than the actual opinion. Saying, “I don’t care much about Drew Gulak” or “I don’t find Drew Gulak entertaining” is different than just saying he sucks. I’m all for people having different opinions and liking different wrestlers, but just because you don’t like a wrestler doesn’t mean they automatically suck. With that said, I have no dog in this fight.

Just trying to explain why it might’ve upset some people. Not taking a stance on either side, just playing devil’s advocate. Get off your pedestal, pal.

B: Never called him wrong C: Never expressed my own opinion, so how do you know it doesn’t fall in line with his? But yes, I proved your point for you. Good job.

Good job. you're correct, you never said any of that. so by default, you aren't who i was referring to. now for the part that was connected to you. what i was saying was that it doesn't matter what his wording was. in his opinion, drew gulak sucked. and once he stated that opinion, he was told that he was wrong by the people who, in their opinion, do not think drew gulak sucks. basically, it was another example of a trend thats been showing up hard lately. "agree, or be wrong"

"agree, or be wrong" the more likely trend is just an increase in sensitivity. herd mentality has if anything slowed down on this forum. you can have an opinion. if you state it, people may disagree with you. if it’s a really crapty one, you may have several people criticizing your position. this is the way the forum has legitimately always been.

I'm guessing more money, but I have no clue. lol As much as some people try to make the narrative that WWE is awful, everyone but the top guys want to leave, there are a lot of guys, that want to be there. Hell look at Drake Maverick, the video of how crushed he was when he got released. I think Drew was finally getting to showcase the talent he has, thanks in part to Daniel Bryan going to bat for him. The asking for more money wasn't a ploy to try and get out of the contract, it was him believing he had earned it. And the one thing I've seen a bit, when it was first announced he was gone, and for even a lot of the releases, the 'oh who cares, he'll never be a top guy in WWE or any where else. So what? Not everyone is going to be a top guy, but promotions need more than just top guys on their rosters. They need guys like Gulak who can make up a mid card for a promotion, can put on good matches, and at times, be there to help others look good.

The reason I say that is because everything I was hearing was that they were renegotiating a deal and he wanted a raise. They said no and his contract ran out. I'm not owed an explanation or anything. lol Just curious as to what changed.
