10 New Directions For WWE After Survivor Series: WarGames 2023
6. GUNTHER Building To Brock Lesnar
Most of the non-WarGames matches at Survivor Series suffered from the same passive build. GUNTHER vs. The Miz was the best of the bunch in that respect, but even it couldn't elevate beyond fairly forgettable. If that sounds like damning criticism, it's not meant as such. The match was still a fun enough watch bell-to-bell.
GUNTHER craves bigger challenges mind.
The subheading of this entry is definitive, and deliberately so. Brock Lesnar sounds like a "final boss" for the reigning Intercontinental Champion, and Triple H has a key decision to make about the result. Does he stick the belt on Brock for a while and move GUNTHER up the card to World Title status? Or, does he prolong the Imperium leader's impressive reign?
GUNTHER has future blockbusters vs. Cody Rhodes, Seth Rollins, Randy Orton and Lesnar in his future. That's almost a certainty, because he's become undeniable as an act with true upward potential. Main events await. First, one 'Beast' meets another!
