WWE Intercontinental Champion “The Ring General” GUNTHER recently appeared on an episode of the Battleground Podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including “newly-signed” SmackDown star Bron Breakker making his main roster in-ring debut in the 2024 Men’s Royal Rumble Match.
GUNTHER said, “I mean, good on him. I would have done the same. First of all, it was his big first appearance on the main roster, and as he should, he made the most out of it. He went in there with all this energy and all the power he has, and I think just athletically, he’s somebody that’s superior over a lot of the guys on the main roster. But that was the Royal Rumble, he was in there for a few minutes. It’s gonna show if he can uphold it in a one-on-one situation.”
He also talked about Breakker possibly being his opponent at WrestleMania 40.
“If I would face him at WrestleMania, I would be confident because my advantage towards him is an almost 20-year career, and he’s still very young and inexperienced at that. I think he has all the potential in the world. If he’s the one for WrestleMania, I’m here to take on the challenge, and I think it’s gonna be a very exciting match.”
