If Vince McMahon had continued to oversee WWE main roster creative instead of Triple H, things may have turned out very differently for Gunther in the second half of 2022.
WrestleVotes has added more information to its original story from earlier this year claiming that after Gunther’s segment with R-Truth on the July 4th episode of Monday Night RAW, McMahon had lost interest in him and had planned to bury him on television. The veteran wrestler was hosting an Independence Day skit when the Intercontinental Champion entered and defeated him in a non-title match.
While speaking with GiveMeSport, WrestleVotes provided more details:
“I know that Vince McMahon just didn’t like what he saw on Raw and was over him, like legitimately wanted to bury him, go back to NXT, that type of stuff.”
Gunther is considered by Triple H to be capable of main eventing WWE events. The Intercontinental Champion’s bout with Sheamus at Clash at the Castle is credited with significantly improving that perception.
