Gunther put The Miz on notice ahead of their match at WWE Survivor Series 2023
The Miz recently won a Fatal-4 Way Match to become the number one contender for the Intercontinental Championship.
Speaking on WWE's The Bump, Gunther put The A-Lister on notice by claiming that he would make the latter realize that it is time for him to step away as a professional wrestler.
Gunther said:
"I'm looking forward to it. He looked very excited, he looked very into the moment. But he has to face his reality now, and his reality is that he has to face me at Survivor Series. I'm very intrigued about that match because he is one of the greatest this company has ever produced. One of the greatest sports entertainers that this company has ever produced, but, he is definitely in the fall of his career, and maybe being in the ring with me will make him realize that it is time to step away maybe, and make room for the people that matter now."
Gunther has held the WWE Intercontinental Championship for over 500 days. He has successfully defended the title against Drew McIntyre, Sheamus, and other top superstars.
