Former WWE personality Matt Camp sees Gunther as a legitimate challenger for Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam, suggesting that their clash could make for an intriguing storyline.
Despite their previous encounters in Royal Rumble matches, they have yet to face off one-on-one in a high-stakes match.
On the Busted Open podcast, Camp highlighted Gunther’s impressive performance in past events, particularly his endurance in the Royal Rumble, as evidence of his potential to challenge Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Title.
He emphasized the buildup of their rivalry over several months, culminating in a showdown at SummerSlam.
Meanwhile, WWE legend Jim Ross expressed his enthusiasm for a potential matchup between Gunther and Rhodes on his Grilling JR podcast.
He praised Gunther’s technical prowess and physicality, suggesting that such a match would offer compelling storytelling and engaging action.
Although Rhodes is currently set to defend his championship against AJ Styles at Backlash France, the prospect of a future showdown with Gunther has garnered significant interest from fans and wrestling personalities alike.
The outcome of their potential matchup remains uncertain, adding an element of intrigue to the WWE.
