On the latest episode of the Gentlemen's Wrestling Podcast, host Jesse Collings is by himself to talk about Paul Levesque's comments during the Backlash press conference, where Levesque reacted poorly to a question about Drew Gulak, and described both Fightful and ProWrestling Insider as not credible outlets.
