Noam probably f***ed the Heritage Cup. And to mention Noam again. Noam's a good wrestler, but his character work is his strength and he throws his all into it. Noam will be the comedic fool and he excels at it. There's nothing wrong with being a comedy guy and making people laugh, not that I've ever made anyone laugh. Agreed. That's why I make jokes all the time in the Live Chat (that, and I'm just the type of guy to joke around anyway lol). I enjoy trying, and failing miserably lol, to make people laugh on here it makes the live chats more fun too

I would like to hear the audio of Cody saying all of it, if it still exists. It really does seem like there's more to it between them than pizza. Cody was paying tribute to his dad, with some Americana Pizza.

The pizza bit is a classic example of how Cody uses self depreciation to make himself sound credible and likable in his stories. Like how his story about Ted DiBiase botching a finish also includes a few bits about Cody being full of himself. Dude is absolutely brilliant at oral storytelling.

So wait... why is all this coming out now? Is it like, now that he's gone people feel comfortable speaking up about it? Or the Rousey thing caused journalists to ask someone backstage about him for the first time ever? Or they want to poison any perception of him now that he's out the door, for some reason?

Wrestling journalist: got any thoughts on Drew Gulak? Wrestlers: we've got lots, why didn't you ask years ago? Journalist: it's Drew Gulak. Wrestlers: good point, well made.

A bit from column A and a bit from column C. Wouldn’t be the first time it happened for the former or latter after someone’s left.

The second part was when he was busy talking about turning 205/NXT in a no fly zone with his POWER POINT presentations. It's a shame cause I like Gulak. I shouldn't be surprised since Drew was one of hte CHIKARA trainers and there were talks about there being a lot of issues with the Wrestlefactory. Also yeah that slam on the other page Gulak is too good to make a mistake like that, especially since it's not like his opponent was slipping out of his hands or anything he had all the time in the world to make that safer.

My doubt on the last part is that it more specific than usual and a LOL harsher. Usually it's some generic "they had an attitude problem" "they were difficult to work with" Something like "he specifically targeted people's injuries" is another level to that. That sounds like some specific incidents.

I like Gulak with the Powerpoints. I don't like Gulak when he act tough.

Yeah, for me (and I'm assuming it's the same for you, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) Powerpoint Gulak was easily the best Gulak, he still had good matches but he was also actually entertaining. Probably helps that 205 Live wasn't that entertaining as a whole imo outside of heel Neville.

It’s quite possibly a no smoke without fire situation where they have been looking for an excuse to cut him loose but there wasn’t really enough evidence to justify outright firing him (I mean the whole Rousey thing was so bizarre and his explanation made it look even more odd)

The only other example that comes to mind is Disco Inferno. He's gotten better over the last few years but he's said some dumb shit, a lot of it around AEW was starting like comparing Kylie Rae to Bayley, and kinda being an ass for no reason, then he would have to backtrack on Twitter and say he was just joking and thinks Bayley is awesome. The unofficial Ethan Page for Drew Gulak trade will be well worth it for all parties involved. I think Page is meant for WWE and Drew will get an alright push in AEW where he can go back to exchanging rest holds with Brian Danielson. But if the stories are true of him being a bully and getting yelled at by HBK, then it was only a matter of time, pizzas and drawstrings aside.

Imagine getting yelled at by HBK for being unprofessional.

The Ronda stuff is really boneheaded and weird, but nothing irredeemable. I would've been fine with him getting a second chance somewhere else if he wouldn't do anything that inappropriate ever again.
But with all the stuff bullying NXT rookies and videos of him spiking dudes, I don't want to see him in AEW, TNA, or really anywhere else anytime soon.

Don't worry, he'll be MLW world champion by the end of the year and probably end up in a tag team with Riddle called Housewives' Favourites or some shit.

I'm not advocating for the dude's firing by any means, but I've wondered several times how Noam keeps dodging the guillotine. He's been in WWE going on a decade now.
