WWE Intercontinental Champion Gunther recently confirmed his participation in the upcoming Royal Rumble match. For those unaware, the Ring General returned from a brief hiatus on the latest episode of Monday Night RAW, where he also expressed his desire to win the 30-man battle royale, besides reminding everyone about his Iron Man performance last year.
Besides this, he also shared a segment with Ludwig Kaiser which led to many believing that the company might be planning for a feud between the Imperium members.
This potential belief arose after the Intercontinental Champion praised Kaiser on Monday Night RAW for showing his brutal side by injuring Kofi Kingston. The tension between these two was visible when Xavier Woods mentioned Gunther as Kaiser's "Daddy."

Further, Gunther hugged the two-time NXT Tag Champion after the latter efficiently dealt with Woods in a singles' match. However, this segment seems to be planting seeds for a future showdown between Gunther and Ludwig Kaiser.
The potential scenario could see the Imperium member eliminating the Ring General in the traditional match and shattering his dream in the process. However, in the aftermath, Gunther might confront Ludwig to lay the platform for their showdown at WrestleMania 40.
Overall, it will be interesting to see how things unfold when Gunther enters the traditional Rumble match.
