In an interview with the Cheap Heat podcast, Gunther talked about the possibility of holding a match with Cody Rhodes. Gunther believes that in the near future they will find themselves face-to-face in the ring. “I do understand why he’s the man right now.
He carries himself in a great way. He’s an absolute professional, I think his backstory is phenomenal. I wish him all the best in whatever he does now, but in the end, I think we’re gonna cross paths again and I’m excited for that”.
- GUNTHER said, as quoted by pwmania.comWrestleMania 39
Gunther is looking forward to WrestleMania 39. His goal as a boy was to become a wrestler, and it can be said that he exceeded his dreams. “That’s definitely exciting.
I think as I said before, I never started wrestling because it was my goal like, I gotta make it to WWE or I gotta make it to WrestleMania. I always just wanted to be a wrestler and make a living off of that, but the ball got rolling and now I’m there.
I can’t wait. I’m excited for it. That’s got to be the biggest opportunity for me in my career to show what I can do on that stage. I think I did my part that, also deservedly, there’s gonna be an Intercontinental Championship match at WrestleMania, and yeah, I’m excited.
I can’t wait to put on a match that people are going to remember”. He is ready to face Brock Lesnar as well. “I think that moment that we had in the Rumble was because that was all I needed out of it. It was basically like a real life confirmation that the audience is up for that.
They want to see it. When I watched him when he started with WWE, he was always the most impressive guy to me, an absolute beast. Then I saw his stuff in Japan, the UFC, and then he came back and has been on top since then. One of the best wrestlers to ever do it in my mind. Just for that reason, I want to be able to prove myself against him”.
