10 Biggest WWE Success Stories Of 2023

The unstoppable GUNTHER had already grown into one of the most formidable and magnificent stars on the roster before 2023 began.

But it's the way the Intercontinental Champion has masterfully fooled folks into thinking his incredible reign at the top of the mid-card is coming to an end time and time again over the course of this year that has really cemented 'The Ring General' as one of WWE's undisputed top talents.

And this one-time NXT UK Champion hasn't just elevated those he's stepped in the ring with during his always captivating spell holding the IC gold; he's also managed to turn his faction into one of the biggest success stories of the year, too.

Before 2023, Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci had both just happily stood behind and supported their powerful leader.

However, since moving to the red show during the Draft, Kaiser in particular has developed into one of the most engaging performers on the product, demanding fans' attention with his distinct delivery on the mic and leaving them begging for someone to thump his rather punchable face.

Vinci has also shone in-between the ropes when called upon, with the Imperium lads now reminding folks each and every week exactly why Vince McMahon was a mad man for wanting to bury the group's leader a year ago.
