Gunther’s remarkable journey in NXT UK marked just the beginning of his WWE career. Following a successful stint in NXT, he was called up to the main roster, where he has blossomed into a bona fide star. However, Gunther is taking a patient approach when it comes to dethroning Roman Reigns.
As the current WWE Intercontinental Champion, Gunther captured the title in June 2022 and has since defended it with impressive victories. Each win has elevated Gunther’s status and showcased his dominant presence.
In this year’s WWE Draft, Gunther was drafted to Monday Night RAW, prompting fans to speculate whether a showdown with Roman Reigns is on the horizon. In a conversation with Mike Jones on DC101, Gunther shed some light on the possibility of facing Reigns in the future. He made it clear that he was not in a rush to step into the ring with the Tribal Chief and take his throne.
“I think there’s no rush with that. I think he’s doing his thing right now, and I’m very focused on doing my thing. I didn’t have the urge to seek out that confrontation yet, but it’s one of the matches fans are looking forward to.
The timing of Gunther’s clash with Roman Reigns remains uncertain, but when it eventually happens, it will undoubtedly be a marquee feud at the main event level. Gunther may be the one to finally dethrone Roman Reigns and etch his name in WWE history.
