Ronda Rousey Accuses Drew Gulak of Inappropriate Behavior During Her WWE Tenure – Ronda Rousey was a recent guest on NewsNation. When asked if she ever experienced any misconduct with Vince McMahon during her time with the company, Rousey said not with McMahon specifically but gave an example of the company culture in WWE.
“One time, I was waiting to go to talk to Triple H in the writer’s room or something,” Ronda Rousey began. “I was standing there with Bruce Prichard and another one of the writers, and God, I forgot his name. Ah, I can’t believe I forgot this guy’s name! It’ll come back to me.
“But I was standing there, and this guy that I was like barely an acquaintance with grabs the string of my sweatpants as I’m walking by. And I wasn’t even looking at him. I looked down the hall, and I was like, I don’t know if I can swear on this. Are you gonna bleep me? It’s a quote, okay? But this guy grabs the string on my sweatpants, and nobody else reacts as if this is abnormal.
“And he starts going down the hall. I’m just like, ‘What the f**k was that? 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.
“Like 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 like what’s happening to these other girls when it’s not in a hallway or something like that? So that really, really put me on edge to not only is this behavior prevalent, but it’s so prevalent that people don’t even realize a problem anymore.”
When asked who the guy was, Rousey initially couldn’t remember his name before remembering that it was Drew Gulak.
“Dude, I swear to God, I know exactly what he looks like. And I completely am blanking on his name. Is this part of my concussion test? Drew Gulak! That’s who it was,” Ronda Rousey said. “Yes. Yeah, 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, you know, I’m editing myself all the swear words out, but we’re gonna have a problem.
“And he was like, no, no, I’m glad that you said something to me. He just really 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 but backstage, especially.”
