Drew Gulak spoke in an interview with Newsweek about his Intercontinental title match with AJ Styles on tonight’s episode of Friday Night Smackdown, although WWE is no longer advertising the match.
Here is what he had to say about the title:
“I think the Intercontinental Championship represents hard work over everything. People sometimes say it’s a midcard championship, but it’s been defended on all parts of the wrestling card throughout its history. I just look at it as much more than a launchpad. It’s kind of like a foundation, that’s how I see it. It’s not just a springboard that will propel me into the heavyweight title scene. This is a very prestigious championship that many talented wrestlers regardless of weight class, background, their experience level have competed for. You know what the Intercontinental Championship is if you’re a WWE fan. It hits you just for its legacy alone. This is an extremely prestigious championship and I’m honored to be able to battle for it on SmackDown.”
