What's Next For Gunther?

[fw91]

Sorry if this a bit redundant, but the Roman thread inspired me. You'd think he make the leap to World title contention, but there doesn't seem to be room for him right now. King Of The Ring?

[Koda, Master Crunchyroller]

I could see him doing one of a few things:

- Kill random guys(like Jey and other midcarders/main eventers not doing anything)
- Go after the Raw tag belts with Imperium(Kaiser or Vinci can eat the pin when they need to lose the belt)
- Take a break(He's more than earned one, good lord)

I feel the WHC scene is currently going to be Drew and Priest with Punk buzzing around the orbit of it like a gnat until he is cleared to have matches again.

So like, I'm thinking there won't be an opening for him until like MitB(oh shit...GUNTHER wins MitB and then stalks both shows' world champs like a horror monster)

[GOTHIC CHARISMA 🧊 🥶❄️FURY]

very selfish of me but i don't want cody to lose the title. objectively i think the right call is gunther taking cody's title at the berlin show but i think we will get a darker and more focused gunther out of this.

he's gonna absolutely destroy people.

[Mayonnaise]

Depends on what they do in the Draft. He could be in line to challenge Cody or they could pick back up Imperium vs Judgment Day with JD as faces.

[Lizuka #BLM]

Wouldn't be surprised if he takes off for a few months, given what a workhorse he's been and the fact he can't work another PPV until August anyway.

[HIM]

I'm not sure when it'll be but I definitely see him in the world title scene either at Summerslam or Wrestlemania 41.

[MolotovMocktail]

You don't need to thrust him into the title picture immediately, but he should be given some high profile feuds against top guys. Cena and Orton are definitely guys who they should consider for him for Summerslam.

[Woo]

Beating Cody.

[eJm]

He’s either winning the belt at SummerSlam and defending at Battle in Berlin or getting the No 1 contendership at SummerSlam and winning the belt at Battle in Berlin. There would need to be a genuinely good reason that doesn’t happen by the end of the summer.

[A Platypus Rave]

I could see him getting into a feud with a random upper midcarder if Sheamus or Drew are actually leaving maybe have him destroy them to send them out of the company.

Then yeah, I think he would take on Cody in like Berlin for the title.

King of the Ring?

MITB

[King Devitt]

MITB, then calls his shot for the Berlin show.

Gunther with MITB sounds weird because Gunter in a ladder seems strange even though he's a wrestler lol..right not just me I hope

but yes if Gunther wins MITB. It fits his character to announce ahead of time.

[tafkaga]

Gunther will go on a tear beating up hobos and homeless dudes across the country looking for Sami Zayn.

Great, now I've got the idea for "Bumfights: Gunther Edition" in my head and it's won't go away.

Only if they start calling him the King General >_>

[Sephiroth]

I think it’s very obviously money in the bank

His 6-month travel ban should be up by May.

[Lance Uppercut]

I think he should face Sami at Montreal. And later finish the feud with Gable. Doesn’t have to be for title, just a personal grudge for taunting his daughter.
