Gunther is in the middle of a fantastic run in WWE. The Ring General continues to dominate the competition and that’s unlikely to change anytime soon. That said, it appears he recently joined a club that features Roman Reigns.
The Ring General won the WWE Intercontinental Championship in June 2022 and has since defended it several times already. With each win, Gunther’s stock continues to rise and he becomes more and more dominating.
Gunther can match Honky Tonk Man’s long-standing record in September. Judging by how dominant he has been as the champion, it is all but confirmed that he will break the record.
Gunther also crossed 400 days as Intercontinental Champion, which is definitely impressive. According to Wrestling Stats & Info, only three WWE Superstars in history have managed to have 400+ day reigns with two different title belts. Among them is now Gunther, who had long reigns with the NXT UK and now the intercontinental Championship.
Drew McIntyre made his return during the Money In The Bank Premium Live Event and confronted Gunther before laying him out. We’ll have to wait and see how WWE will book their feud in the coming weeks.
What do you think of this achievement? Is Gunther the greatest Intercontinental Champion of all time already? Sound off in the comments!
