This would rule.

Reigning Intercontinental Champion, Gunther recently appeared on My Love Letter to Wrestling with Mark Andrews. Gunther discussed his Royal Rumble showdown with Brock Lesnar:

“That moment with Brock was all I needed. I don't think we needed to have lots of action going on with him, get into a little scuffle and stuff, just the moment and the crowd reaction for that, it was all I needed. Just see how people...on the internet, you read stuff and people get easily excited, but often, the hype from online doesn't translate to the venue. When that happened, I was like, compared to the US, especially in England, people understand competition. They tend to look at the match and take it as a competition and then emotionally react to it, rather than expecting the fireworks right away”.

In relation to facing Lesnar in the UK, Gunther added:

“I hope. The thing is, who knows. We had great success as Clash at the Castle, and now coming back with Money in the Bank, I'm hoping this is something that becomes a tradition where they venture out to Europe for the big events. The response is great and we get the chance more often”.

H/T – Fightful.
