Gunther’s growing reputation has left a trail of fallen legends, and now the former World Heavyweight Champion is hinting that another name could soon be added to the list.
Over the past year, Gunther has embraced the moniker “The Career Killer” after high-profile victories over Goldberg, John Cena, and AJ Styles, each bout marking the end of an era. But with momentum firmly on his side, attention has already turned to who might be next.
Appearing on The Morning Shift, The Ring General was asked directly which career he plans to end next. Rather than immediately naming a target, he turned the question back on the hosts. When Brock Lesnar’s name was suggested, the Austrian Superstar appeared intrigued.
What Gunther Said About Retiring Brock Lesnar
“That’s a good one, right? We’ll see,” Gunther responded. “I think there are a bunch of examples of people who overstay their welcome, who just hang on a little bit too much, who chase one moment too much. It seems like there is a big amount of people to choose from.”
The timing of the exchange has only intensified speculation, with Brock Lesnar scheduled to appear on tonight’s episode of WWE Raw.
Whether Gunther’s comments were calculated or coincidental, the possibility of a collision between the dominant champion and “The Beast Incarnate” has suddenly become a talking point. If history is any indication, The Ring General would not hesitate to add another iconic name to his growing list.
