Gunther added his name to WWE's history books when he became the longest-reigning Intercontinental Champion. However, The Ring General is yet to win the big one, and he recently addressed the chances of feuding with Undisputed Universal Champion Roman Reigns.
Last year, Gunther made his main roster debut on Friday Night SmackDown and immediately started working towards winning the Intercontinental Championship. After capturing his first title on the main roster in less than two months, The Ring General broke several records with the workhorse championship.
Many fans wonder if and when the Imperium leader would pursue the Undisputed Universal Championship. In a chat with Steve Fall, The Ring General discussed the possibility of a rivalry with Roman Reigns in the near future.

"Yeah, this or Brock [Lesnar] is the usual other mention in that question. "We'll see, time will tell. (...) It would be a very interesting match. I think so, yeah, because I think what Roman is to the Universal title now is what I am to the Intercontinental Championship. I think the role and position are very similar to that. But, he's doing his thing now, and I'm doing my thing. (...) Further down the line, that's definitely something interesting to get into." (From 6:52 to 7:40)
