Gunther prepares to defend the World Heavyweight Championship against Jey Uso at Saturday Night’s Main Event on January 25, 2025. Sources indicate Logan Paul is among potential WrestleMania opponents for Gunther, alongside John Cena and CM Punk.
Former WWE head writer Vince Russo addressed the speculation on Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Legion of RAW.
Yeah, that just sounds horrible, man! Speaking of Gunther, they do absolutely nothing with him. Absolutely nothing! Zero, bro. What a waste!
Russo discussed the effects of Gunther’s loss to Sami Zayn at WrestleMania 40.
Because they had Sami beat him and when you look at that right now, from the moment Sami beat him to right now, his trajectory has gone straight down and Sami is in the same exact place. So, you sacrificed a heel that was over and part of him being over was that winning streak and you did not elevate Sami whatsoever in the process.
Gunther captured the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam 2024 and defends the title against Jey Uso at Saturday Night’s Main Event.
