What is next for Gunther?

The current Intercontinental Champion has had a dominant run holding the title. He defeated Ricochet and Shinsuke Nakamura during his run. The Ring General has also defeated the then-longest reigning NXT UK Champion Pete Dunne.

During a recent interview with Witty Whittier, the Ring General said that he doesn't have a list of superstars that he wants to face. But expressed his interest in facing the current Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns.

"I don't have a list for that, but let's say it's Roman Reigns. Yes," the Ring General said.

Though the Austrian wants to face the Tribal Chief, he still has unfinished business with Drew McIntyre. Some fans also want to see the two superstars have a full-fledged one-on-one match.
