Gunther was recently compared to Randy Orton because of his intentional actions in the ring, which he found flattering. The WWE Intercontinental Champion, who successfully defended his title last night at SummerSlam against Drew McIntyre, made an appearance on Busted Open Radio. When compared to Randy Orton on Busted Open Radio, he remarked that every move they make in the ring is significant. “Thank you for that comparison. I think Randy’s one of the best ever, so it’s very charming.” 

Unorthodox Style 

“If you think back like Santino Marella got a hand in his sock over. It was a deadly weapon back then. If you look at Sami Zayn’s match with the Jackass crew, he just used whatever the Jackass crew had to offer. He just treated it as like, ‘Okay, that’s their offense.’” Expressed Gunther. 

Defending the Intercontinental Title

In the following match, Gunther faced up against Drew McIntyre to defend the Intercontinental Championship. There was more at stake for The Ring General than just his belt. Additionally, he was striving to extend his nearly record-breaking reign until he outlasted The Honky Tonk Man. Before locking up, the two formidable opponents locked eyes for a considerable period of time. Gunther made sure to take note of McIntyre’s first knockdown. He answered by putting the opponent in a headlock and taking him down.

They took some time to start throwing chops, but once they did, they were swinging for the fences. Each blow had a distinct sound, and you could almost feel the welt rising on the Scot’s chest. This was a fierce fight from the off between two guys who take great pride in their physical prowess. Both put forth a lot of effort to jolt the crowd to life. After Gunther recovered from his Claymore kick, he struck McIntyre with a few strong attacks and a powerbomb for a clean victory and to keep his title.
