In a spectacular showdown at Money in the Bank this past Saturday, WWE Intercontinental Champion GUNTHER successfully defended his title against the formidable Matt Riddle. However, what happened after the match stole the spotlight as Drew McIntyre made an explosive comeback after his absence since April? The Scottish Warrior left an indelible mark by launching a surprise attack on the champion, delivering a thunderous Glasgow Kiss and a devastating Claymore.

Asserting his intentions, McIntyre made it crystal clear—he was back, and he hungered for the Intercontinental Championship. As the dust settled and the WWE Universe buzzed with anticipation, GUNTHER took to social media on Sunday afternoon to directly confront his returning challenger with a simple yet powerful question: "When?" McIntyre remains silent, leaving fans eagerly awaiting his response and the prospect of an epic showdown.

GUNTHER Defends Intercontinental Championship

The last time these two fierce competitors locked horns was on the grand stage of WrestleMania 39, on April 2. In a high-stakes battle, GUNTHER overcame McIntyre and Sheamus, successfully retaining his Intercontinental Championship.

The victory marked another milestone for GUNTHER, who has held the prestigious title since he triumphed over Ricochet on the June 10, 2022, episode of "WWE SmackDown." On the other hand, McIntyre boasts a storied history with the Intercontinental Championship during his initial tenure with the company.

His first and only reign, thus far, began on December 13, 2009, and concluded on May 23, 2010, leaving an enduring legacy that fuels his burning desire to reclaim the coveted title. With WWE's next major spectacle on the horizon, the electrifying SummerSlam, all eyes turn toward the Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan, on August 5.

The card for this blockbuster event remains shrouded in mystery, with no matches announced. Yet, the tantalizing prospect of witnessing GUNTHER defending his Intercontinental Championship against the resurgent McIntyre looms large, potentially stealing the show and leaving the WWE Universe on the edge of their seats.

The anticipation continues to mount as the WWE Universe eagerly awaits the clash between GUNTHER and McIntyre. Will McIntyre rise to reclaim former glory? Or will GUNTHER's reign prevail against this formidable challenger? Only time will tell as the stage is set for an epic showdown at SummerSlam, where legends are made and careers are defined.
