GUNTHER saw a huge moment in his career at Bash in Berlin as he retained the WWE World Heavyweight Championship against Randy Orton. He has a brutal move set, but there is always room to tweak things a bit.
The Undertaker recently shared his thoughts on the reigning WWE World Heavyweight Champion, GUNTHER, during an episode of Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway. GUNTHER, who has held the title for just over a month, has made waves in the WWE with his hard-hitting, old-school style. After one successful title defense, GUNTHER is preparing for his next challenge against Sami Zayn.
While discussing GUNTHERs rise to prominence, The Undertaker praised the champion but also offered some advice. The legendary Deadman emphasized the importance of adding more heel tactics to his repertoire if he wants to avoid an unintended shift in fan perception.
GUNTHER has gained a reputation for his brutal in-ring style, especially with his powerful chops, which resonate with fans as a throwback to a more hard-hitting era of wrestling. However, The Undertakers advice points to the modern-day challenge of keeping fans booing a strong heel who showcases genuine in-ring talent. According to The Undertaker, if GUNTHER doesnt mix in more underhanded tactics, the fans could quickly turn him into a fan favorite, something that could affect his current role as a dominant heel.
The Ring General has a punishing move set, and most of his moves are bangers that could close out any match. Perhaps he may need to alter things a little bit, as The Deadman suggested. Then again, if its not broke, then dont fix it; and GUNTHER is certainly not broken.
As GUNTHERs title reign continues, it remains to be seen whether he will take this legendary advice to heart or continue to rely on his intense, no-nonsense wrestling style.
What do you think about The Undertakers advice to GUNTHER regarding adding more heel tactics to his move set? Should GUNTHER tweak his in-ring approach, or keep doing whats been working for him so far? Let us know your thoughts!
