Gunther is a huge fan of Lesnar’s and even quoted him as the final boss, in his WWE conquest. The 297 Lbs star recently made history in the Royal Rumble as the record-time holder. Moreover, his reign as the longest intercontinental champion of the 21 century in WWE speaks for itself. Therefore, fans are speculating his Wrestlemania opponent to be among Brock Lesnar, Sheamus, and Drew McIntyre.

However, The WWE can suddenly flip the table on our heads and confirm the match-up between the two, at the last moment. Therefore, there are still hopes of a Gunther vs Lesnar match-up to be on the cards.

Teddy Long spoke about The Conqueror’s last dance

Recently, former WWE referee Teddy Long gave his take on Brock Lesnar’s retirement. When American Journalist Bill Apter suggested NXT champion, Bron Breakker should be the one to retire the legend. Moreover, Long himself agreed with Apter and reflected that he was the perfect candidate to carry out the task.

Long said in an interview “Steiner’s kid has got a great-looking body. That kid looks really good and he’s a good worker. I’ve seen him work in the ring, so yeah, that’s not a bad idea”. Therefore, Long felt that would be the perfect match for Lesnar to part from his wrestling family.
