Gunther: Logan Paul Is A Great Addition For WWE, I Would Love To Do A Match

Gunther is a fan of Logan Paul. 

Gunther and Logan Paul are champions of their respective brands with Gunther holding the WWE Intercontinental Champion and Paul holding the WWE United States Champion. Gunther is the longest-reigning Intercontinental Champion while Paul has held the United States Championship for a week as of this writing. 

Despite their different paths to get to where they’ve gotten, Gunther respects the work Logan has done. 

“To the match itself, I would love to do the match. I think it would be very exciting. On him, the thing in general with celebrities coming into our business, for a while, I thought it was a bit unnecessary because in a lot of cases it was just somebody coming in and getting paid who would try to take the most out of it for them and then leave again. With celebrities we’ve had recently, like Logan Paul and Bad Bunny, those are guys that are obviously passionate about what we do. They enjoy it, they love it, and they have a high interest in converting to it and not just going in there and taking something out.

“With that being said, I have a very positive opinion of Logan Paul. He helps everybody with wanting to do it because he has astronomical reach on the internet, he’s very respectful, he doesn’t walk around and think he’s a big deal, and the guy has an amazing career outside of WWE already, basically self-made. Now he’s decided to join us and give it a go there. So far, he’s United States Champion, so congratulations. He’s done very well so far and in general is very exciting to watch. Very athletic, he’s quite tall, great body, charismatic, can talk, he’s not afraid of showing off. It’s a great addition for us,” Gunther said in an interview on The Masked Man Show with David Shoemaker and Kazeem Famuyide. 

Gunther is set to defend his WWE Intercontinental Championship against The Miz at WWE Survivor Series.
