There is another WWE star GUNTHER hopes to face in the more immediate future: Brock Lesnar. Earlier in the interview, GUNTHER confirmed that Lesnar was a dream match, and shared his thoughts on “The Beast Incarnate.”

“He’s definitely somebody I looked up to,” GUNTHER stated. “I always admired him for how he handles himself and his business and stuff. For me personally, I think he’s my biggest obstacle at some point in my career. So if there’s a chance that this happens, I would love to do that, of course.”

Like Reigns, the Austrian wrestler is currently on something of a hot streak. GUNTHER has held the Intercontinental Championship since a June 10, 2022 episode of “WWE SmackDown,” where he defeated Ricochet for the title. In the months since, GUNTHER has plowed through opponents including Sami Zayn, Rey Mysterio, Braun Strowman, and both Drew McIntyre and Sheamus at the same time.

Lesnar is currently preparing to face off against Cody Rhodes for the third time, with their next bout scheduled for WWE SummerSlam on August 5. It sounds as though GUNTHER could have his sights set on Lesnar in the near future, regardless of the outcome of his feud with Rhodes.
