I get bringing in new creative, I get bringing in new talent. I don’t get calling him Gunther. I just don’t get it. It’s worse that the full trademarked name is a literal Nazi name. Whoever did this should legit be fired. Inexcusable.

You beat me to the punch.
I hope Vince doesn't remember he changed his name next week and it's like the small 6 second snippet didn't happen

Is he going to cut a promo next week about how his grandpa fell out of a guard tower?

The only way this makes any sense is if they wouldn't let him use WALTER if he was fired for trademark reasons, so he got a WWE name to protect his assets.
Otherwise no, this makes zero sense, and it's a severe downgrade from WALTER imo in every way
If this run is a sink or swim for his WWE future, they're already sinking it

He wanted orange, but WWE's only going to give him lemon-lime.

He totally did say GUNTHER but also y'all thought he was gonna be Von Wagner like 6 months ago so I don't trust anyone here on German affairs

I saw something, earlier, about them trademarking the name “Gunther Stark”. Which was the name of a Nazi U-boat Captain. Yeah…

In the past, when people got stupid names, I say who cares it's just a name. It's not important. Not this time. This is horrible. Vince McMahon needs to lay off of NXT. He just ruined the career of the longest reigning Champion in the WWE's Modern Era. WALTER & everyone else needs to open up their mouths and say something or they should all quit.

That is the FIRST thing that comes up on Google when you type in that name. Two minutes tops.
I will enjoy seeing the WrestleTalk people tear this apart (they love WALTER) at least.

Adam Cole got out while he still could. So did Kyle, so did Gargano And I don't think they'll be the last.

Well they might not be "quitting", but there have certainly been a bevy of talents not eager to re-sign, and they are giving them a lot of reasons to not reconsider that thinking and go elsewhere.

10 bucks says he’s released in two months or that he asks for his release in two months. I find it amusing the dude waited so long to finally move across the pond, and come to WWE proper, and this is what was waiting for him. He would've been better served coming over years ago in HHH's NXT. Hell dude should've just went to the main roster with the rest of Imperium.
