- Sam Roberts joins Dave LaGreca on SiriusXM’s Busted Open to interview Gunther at Summerslam about his reign as Intercontinental champion, his philosophy on performing, growing up watching Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart, and a lot more.
Everything about his reign is perfect. His promos, his name, his theme music, his aesthetic, his angles. He will go down as one of the greatest ever.
Remember when Keith Lee tweeted "Poor Walter"? What a tool. Gunther is killing it!
Meanwhile Lee went to AEW and all he's done is won a tag title and aged 20 years
Keith Who?
What’s wrong with saying poor people Walter lol
@@Myleslambeth because he meant it in a negative way like as if that was step 1 of Gunther being ruined on the main roster
@@KingSilly yeah but maybe he thought it was going to go in the wrong direction, obviously, no one knew what Gunther was going to become. I think it’s a dumb reason to use this comment section to trash Keith Lee.
I love his ability to look like a legit badass while making other people look good at the same time.
Gunther is great, was not sure at the start but after all these matches and this reign gained a new fan here, the brutal beat downs and dominance is what we as fans respect the longest reigning IC champ of all time it’s awesome to witness !
Such a likable dude... I'd like to see a babyface Gunther run eventualy
Nah screw that, Gunther should never turn babyface! a tweener is fine I guess
Anti-hero who you love to respect is the style of babyface he could do very well. He's already had incredible matches where his character proved himself with zero help or cheating.
I mean if depends
He went from being a guy I didn't want to see break tonk's record to being a guy I want to see hold it 1000 days plus and blow the record out of the water pretty quickly this year. What he's been doing is crazy, if they do have him drop it at some point I hope it leads to a main event push, he's good.
Gunther is a unique heel, since he doesn’t act too cowardly, while putting on good matches.
I personally think he is the best wrestler in the WWE today. His matches are all master class art.
Gunther is total class.
Without a doubt the best in the world right now. Incredible in the ring, professional, well spoken, and seemingly very down to earth and humble. I can't wait to see how far he goes.
Gunther is the Nikola Jokic of pro wrestling
Actual facts, he has the Arnold charm, I can see him going to Hollywood
What an incredible comparison. They are pure to the core of what their respective professions require, and very humble in their greatness!
I love Gunther
Same here I love Gunther as well
@@Youngjas17 yes he is the man
@@UMBRA7ZZZ yup I agree
@@Youngjas17 do you think he will break the IC record
@@UMBRA7ZZZ yup I think he will
"I'm in the longest reign with those guys, and I'm doing it my way". That speaks on a whole different level when you realize (or watched) how The Honky Tonk Man held the title for the longest reign up to this point.
Gunther brings respect and dignity and is what professional wrestling is all about
It took me a long time to warm up to him but I now love Gunther. The reason I love wrestlers like Gunther (and Rhea Ripley as well) is theyre just very basic pro wrestling which to me is timeless. You could take him and put him in a 70s with Sammartino or an 80s ring with Steamboat or a 90s ring with Hart and it would still work (could say the same with Ripley though womens wrestling is more hit and miss but she wouldve been an attraction as a manager).
I hope he is put up on the world title scene soon, Gunther is always good on the mic, does a good storyline and is amazing in the ring.
I love Gunther hes the Greatest Intercontinental Champion wwe ever had in my book n the only heel that never cheats when he wrestles he Gives the loudest n Best chops ever
Gunther from what I’m seeing is a stud. Elevated a title that lost a lot of meaning over the years. He seems very candid with how he speaks like that from wrestlers during interviews straight forward and appreciative of the time of the interviewers give and vice versa
Very true! He tells his stories from bell to bell. Something I really miss in Wrestling.
Gunther maybe a legitimate technical destroyer in the ring but what an absolute refined gentleman for sure 🙏🇦🇹👑, so happy he made history in the Carolinas last night with gable.
The entire reason I started paying attention to Gunther is because of he’s in ring performance…he’s an amazing wrestler
I love when someone in the wrestling business talks about making money.
Gunther
🆚️
Brock Lesnar
=🏟💰
At the end of the day, I think Gunther is my favorite wrestler.
You can love or hate him but its a bit nuts that in the span of 1 yeat HHH made 4 new legit stars. Cody, Gunther, Knight and Sami.
Not only are you on the list of greatest IC Champs ever, I think it's very likely you will be the best when this title reign does finally end. You have an incredible career ahead of you brother, I'm so glad to have started watching again the last few years and seeing this run! I've only known you as Gunther and I think it's got a better ring to it as Walter is a name too attached to Walter White at this point in pop culture.
Best wrestler in WWE.
Great Champion, holding high the great Otto Wanz!!!
debuted as getting eliminated like 5 seconds in a survivor series match at one point
God Gunther would look so much better with the classic white Intercontinental Championship👏🔥
They could test the waters with a table match with Gunther or Money in the Bank. Something that is a little fun but still entertaining.
That belt looks so good on that table😢😢😢
They need to bring back the Golden Era/New Generation WWF Intercontinental Title. This new version looks like belongs in a boxing ring.
Gunther is the Best "Wrestler " in the world today!
Bring back the old Intercontinental Championship Title...
Getting your shirt to match the chair is rare air 😎
How has"The Ring General" Gunther not had a interview on @notsamwrestling ?
I wanna see Wayne come out for an appearance. Have him get in Gunther's face, wanting a match to try to stop Gunther from beating his record.
Wayne? Just say Honky Tonk Man. Nothing more markish then calling a wrestler by their government name.
@@KingSilly except for the fact that 1- I've been in the business since I was a teenager & 2- he told me to call him Wayne, so....
@@QCS_AdamCole gross imagine pretending to be Adam Cole. Bro out here with less subs than me trying to fool people he's Adam Cole 🤡 this conversation is over due to you proving you're not working with a full deck of cards
@@KingSilly you think I don't have proof? Me, Adam Cole, pro debut in 1998, trained by Nelson Royal & Dory Funk. Fast forward to 2009 & a buddy in FL called & put me on the line with Austin Jenkins, the man who was just getting started & we joked about him using my name.
@@QCS_AdamCole interesting, I'm listening 👂 tell me more.
We need more wrestlers like this guy, Sheamus, McIntyre, Reigns, Brock, etc. Practically 80% of the wrestlers now are overly inked-up high-flyers or brawlers who either look like a superhero, or an average joe. We need more wrestlers who actually wrestle. I miss the good ol' days when at least half the roster were physically imposing beasts. They don't have to look ripped. They just gotta look intimidating and convincing in the ring.
The man's hands are lethal weapons.
Let’s go
hes a great ic champion one of the best top 5 but for me hes another brock lesnar where he doesnt need to talk on the mic to cut a story or promo becuase he does that all in the ring without no mic brock was the same in that sense thats why i want to hopefully see them both fight at wm40 where brock retires as rumored
Greatest ic champion ever. They can’t turn him jobber when he loses it as a matter of fact after he breaks the record he can lose it in a ladder match or something where he remains undefeated and then make a world title run
Absolutely, he will undoubtedly remain in that top card position or very near it for the rest of his career. I imagine he will even have a true face run as well but, maybe his German accent will hold him from doing that as world champ. Either way he will definitely be a top heel world champion at some point and stay there for a while.
Did he just give props to DDT? Damn Jim Cornette's fave giving props to his loathed promotion.
Hey Sam what color is your shirt?
He will always go as Walter to me great interview 🔥
He needs to fight Brock !
To me, the intercontinental belt always look like garbage. They never put any thought into it. That's an intercontinental belt to be proud of
So glad HTM Will not be associated with the Work Horse Belt anymore.
One thing I'm super disappointed about this man: He hasn't brought back the Honk-A-Meter!!!
Bring back the Honk-A-Meter!!!
Prime bret hart vs gunther,who wins
Bret Hart he is more technical and has so many technique than Gunther
@@Cyberorcwell gunther has the power advantage
@@haziqizuddin8133 Goldberg was Stronger and powerful than Gunther but Bret hart beat him because of his technique and submission that's all with his he would beat Gunther
Keith Lee isn’t exactly moving the needle much in AEW. lol
🖤🖤🖤🖤☕️
Is he German ?
Never been a chopper like Gunther since Chris Benoit and both not Americans
Love Gunther, but that belt is hideous. They should just go back to the classic belt design.
I love Gunther but I think he should work on his English and speaking if he wants to connect more with the crowd.
Did you even listen to the interview?
Dave, you love aew, don't give me this old school wrestling nonsense 😅😅
2:30-2:45 ask Hitler
Gunther has to beat honky tonks record. He looses a day before the record honky tonk has serious dirt on someone and this is WWE. Thats scary
FIRST
Last!
That belt is so ugly
Cap
@@SupaTheEpic It could be better
I love it
I would have said the same, until Gunther started carrying it. His whole gimmick is that he hates the flashy entertainment side of wrestling. The belt is very plain & simple which compliments his character perfectly.
@@skydonkey900 it's the Mattel logo and you know it
SECOND
Sounds like a young Arnold Schwarzenegger…should he go Hollywood they should co-star
