GUNTHER is days away from making his latest title defense as the WWE Intercontinental Champion. GUNTHER is slated to defend the Intercontinental Title against The Miz at this Saturday’s Survivor Series.
GUNTHER’s journey
This comes during his historic reign as the IC Champion in addition to a strong body of work in the company that has spanned across from NXT UK, NXT, and the main roster.
While speaking with Sports Illustrated, GUNTHER talked about the unique match with Miz, who has been criticized for years due to his in-ring work despite his strong microphone work. GUNTHER explained in this interview why he’s excited about the bout.
The bout
“I’m not a typical WWE guy,” said Gunther. “I established and developed myself far away from WWE. Miz is different. He went through the WWE system, and he’s living proof of how effective the system is. He’s one of the most decorated wrestlers they’ve ever had. So it will be a clash of styles.”
GUNTHER did note that he plans to be at the Bash in Berlin premium live event next August, as his green card issues should be cleared up by then. He currently can’t travel outside of the US until the issue is resolved.
