GUNTHER is the longest reigning Intercontinental Champion in the history of WWE, and Bully Ray can’t wait to see him tussle with the top names in the company.
On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Ray discussed what GUNTHER should be doing in the immediate future now that he has established himself as a dominant champion in WWE. He said,
“What I am looking forward to is the days when GUNTHER has the opportunity to be in the ring with guys that are better than him. If the day ever comes that we get Brock [Lesnar] and Gunther, GUNTHER, get under that learning tree, and soak it all in, brother. A Randy Orton and a GUNTHER, wow. An Edge and GUNTHER. GUNTHER, much like a Charlotte [Flair] doesn’t have anybody that is going to bring him to the next level. GUNTHER and Seth [Rollins], yes, that’ll do it. Seth is excellent at what he does.”
On a recent edition of the “Under The Ring” podcast, Richard Holliday discussed his slow babyface turn since returning to the ring this past June.
Holliday made his return to wrestling after beating cancer in February.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On playing more of a babyface role since his return: “I believe that everybody has layers to their personality. I’m sure, if given the wrong circumstances, you can be a bit of a jerk in a sense. I think anybody could. I think anybody has the ability to be good or bad, it’s all kind of inherent in ourselves. Given the circumstances, right now I’ve been in a good mood.”
On his attitude since his return: “I’ve been so joyful to be back and doing everything that I’m doing. I’m obviously confident in myself as a performer anyway. Any time I get into the ring, whatever mood I may be in that day or that month or that year, whatever mindset I’m in, Richard Holliday is going to give you something special, and you’re gonna go home remembering it.”
