Drew Gulak is a former WWE Cruiserweight Champion and has been signed to WWE since 2016. Prior to signing with the company, Gulak wrestled for Combat Zone Wrestling, Evolve, Pro Wrestling Guerilla, Beyond Wrestling, and Dragon Gate USA on a variety of independent shows.

Gulak made his WWE debut at the first-ever Cruiserweight Classic competition. Gulak would defeat Samir Singh in the first round of the competition before losing to Zack Sabre Jr in the second round. Gulak would team with Tony Neese and Ariya Daivari to form a heel faction. The trio often participated in matches at WWE PPV pre-shows.

In 2019, Gulak would win his first WWE title. Gulak won a Triple Threat Match against Akira Tozawa and former ally Tony Neese. Gulak won the title by pinning Tozawa. Since winning the belt, Gulak has successfully defended his titles against Neese and Money Lorcan, and in a Triple Threat Match against Lince Dorado and Humberto Carrillo.

While Gulak has not seemingly spoken widely about his Jewish heritage, Jewish media outlets like The Forward, and various Israeli publications covered Gulak's Cruiserweight Title victory.

Gulak is currently wrestling for the red brand and is also a seven-time WWE 24/7 champion. He has largely remained a mid-card / lower-mid-card wrestler.
