WWE Officials Hail GUNTHER as “Most Professional Talent” as New Deal Looms

WWE World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER is on the verge of signing a massive multi-year deal to stay with the company long-term and the deal is believed in its final stages, if not already completed.

Behind closed doors, the reaction to GUNTHER’s contributions has been overwhelmingly positive. According to Fightful Select, WWE sources describe him as a standout talent who has exceeded all expectations. “The company has been thrilled with GUNTHER’s performance in the ring and at media obligations,” said one source. Another WWE official went even further, calling GUNTHER “among the most professional talents they had ever worked with.”

GUNTHER’s impact since joining WWE in 2019 has been undeniable. From dominating NXT to elevating the Intercontinental Championship with a record-setting reign, he has continually proven his worth. Now, as World Heavyweight Champion, his reign has been nothing short of remarkable. Most recently, he retained the title against Damian Priest at Survivor Series, despite interference from Finn Balor.

Beyond his achievements, GUNTHER’s attitude and work ethic have made him a favorite among those in WWE. With this new deal nearly finalized, WWE is doubling down on “The Ring General” as a cornerstone of its future. While his potential babyface turn—cemented by a post-match ambush by Finn Balor on RAW—has fans can’t wait to see what’s next.
