As the WrestleMania XL fever grips the WWE Universe, anticipation is high for the upcoming episode of Monday Night RAW, with several contenders vying for their spot on the grandest stage of them all.
The highlight of the red brand’s episode will be a thrilling six-man Gauntlet Match, featuring a lineup packed with talent including Sami Zayn, Ricochet, Chad Gable, Bronson Reed, JD McDonagh, and Shinsuke Nakamura.
The stakes couldn’t be higher, as the victor of this intense contest earns the opportunity to challenge The Ring General for the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania XL.
In a recent video shared on WWE’s official Instagram handle, Gunther delivered a chilling message to his potential challengers, making it clear that whoever steps into the ring with him at WrestleMania XL will suffer humiliation at his hands.
“Have a good look [at] what every man in the Gauntlet Match will be fighting for tomorrow. It’s to get humiliated and outclassed by me at WrestleMania. It takes a lot to be in my position. I really hope you put it all on the line tomorrow,”
Gunther asserted.
With his eyes set on the prize, The Ring General will undoubtedly be closely observing the Gauntlet Match to craft his strategy for his WrestleMania XL adversary.
Meanwhile, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray weighed in on potential matchups for WrestleMania XL during a recent episode of the Busted Open Radio podcast.
While acknowledging the potential of a showdown between Sami Zayn and Gunther, Bully Ray expressed his desire to witness Chad Gable locking horns with The Ring General once more, given their history and Gable’s near-victory in their previous encounters.
“Coming out of last night, we have Sami Zayn’s storyline of how this is his final opportunity to get to WrestleMania. I think Sami and Gunther would be a quality Intercontinental Championship match,”
Bully Ray opined.
“However, a part of me wants to see [Chad] Gable-Gunther three, because Gable and Gunther has been really good. And Gable is that underdog who’s come close [to beating Gunther].”
With fan anticipation building for potential matchups, the stage is set for an electrifying showdown at WrestleMania XL, where dreams will clash and champions will rise.
