As one of the WWE’s most prominent figures, Gunther recently shared his thoughts on a seismic event that has reverberated throughout the industry: the highly anticipated return of The Rock.
Set to defend his Intercontinental Championship against Sami Zayn at WrestleMania XL, Gunther finds himself at the center of attention as he prepares for his second consecutive appearance at the prestigious event.
In a conversation with talkSPORT, the Intercontinental Champion expressed his astonishment at The Rock’s unexpected return to headline Night One of WrestleMania XL, emphasizing the dynamic nature of the wrestling business and the excitement it generates.
“It’s crazy and shows you how much our business can change over the last five years of a time window, it’s absolutely crazy, what a rollercoaster. It’s exciting and interesting. There are so many things unfolding that people didn’t see coming before,”
Gunther remarked.
Acknowledging the significance of The Great One’s presence in WWE, Gunther highlighted the profound impact it has had on the company’s reach and the buzz surrounding its events.
“Having The Rock along in the mix, basically out of nowhere, it’s absolutely crazy for the company’s reach and the buzz around it.”
As Gunther prepares to defend his title at The Show of Shows, speculation abounds regarding the potential outcomes of his match against Zayn.
With an impressive track record as Intercontinental Champion, Gunther aims to further solidify his reign and extend his dominance in the ring.
While Zayn poses a formidable challenge, Gunther’s attention may also turn to potential future contenders for his title.
Chad Gable, the only WWE main roster competitor to have defeated Gunther in a one-on-one match, looms as a potential challenger post-WrestleMania XL.
Whether it’s a rematch with Gable or a new rivalry sparked by unforeseen circumstances at WrestleMania XL, Gunther remains focused on maintaining his supremacy as Intercontinental Champion in the ever-evolving WWE.
