With Gunther on track to break HTM’s record…

[fg]

…I can’t believe that Vince wanted to bury the guy.

Shows you how much Vince has lost his touch.

[fw91]

he did?

Anyway, in the age of marking for work rate, I understand why people like him. However I'm still not sold on the guy. Not sure he'll generate enough of a crowd response to be the center of a tv show as world champion. I don't think people will be interested enough for him to be the center of a tv show as world champ.

[avenger]

Buried? He lost by countout to extend a program and build to a PPV match. He's been on the main roster and hasn't been pinned or submitted.

[HIM]

I heard that Vince the guy who changed his opinion on him. Sure be might have disliked him in the beginning but he came around.

[Legion]

I thought this was going to suggest you couldnt believe they haven't had HTM come in for a segment.

I know I can't anyway

[Main Event Mark]

And how long was his NXT UK reign?

[krozor]

Given's Vince's love for hosses, foreign heels, and his reputation as a secret workrate mark (who just doesn't think fans will pay for it on top), I assume he loves Gunther.

Agreed on it being weird that HTM hasn't really shown up yet. I'd have expected Elias and Boogz to have shown up by now as presumed proxies for Honky Tonk Man trying to stop Gunther from beating the record, only for the swerve to be Giovanni Vinci repacked with an Italo-Disco gimmick as HTM's real new protege and everyone makes a billion dollars off Disco Vinci.

Vince wanted him to lose weight, and he did. That most assuredly got him way the f*** over with him.

I’m hoping that Honky runs in on the last night of the record for the old El Kabong before getting annihilated.

That would actually be an awesome segment with Honky trying to stop the record. Vinci can take the guitar shot haha

[tirtefaa]

If anyone should have broken the record, it was Santino in 2009.

Gunther should just chop the guitar and shatter it that way.

Gunther is a throwback to the era that Vince grew up with. Vince was always going to love him.

This is the picture of Dr Jerry Graham on the WWE website. Graham was Vince's favourite wrestler growing up. Remind you of anyone?

[A Little Doo Doo]

Well, you see, it's GUNTHER's fault for not getting over right away on the main roster. /s

Hunter, please hand booking duties over to this man.

[sarkerpolseng]

Are you referring to that Survivor Series match where he jobberd out right away?

I am choosing to live in kayfabe and in my world Billy Gunn returns with HTM as Rockabilly (he put his boots down in AEW) as his muscle to stop this blatant record theft...Can't believe I didn't see the writing before



(i dont really want this over him returning at Wembley mind you haha)

...Chris Hero?

[Lizuka #BLM]

Remember when his entire deal was just treating Kaiser like trash and you were apparently supposed to care?

[KingPooper]

then can Sheamus finally win it...
