This is what is so interesting about everybody like who's ever watched wrestling thinks that they've got Gunter all figured out.
Well, I know what this character is.
I know how he operates.
He's going to do this.
He's going to be a killer.
He's going to end this career.
He's going to do that.
And it's like Gunter is such a unique figure.
force in the world of pro wrestling because everybody that's ever existed like Gunther their whole thing is that they go in there and they dominate people and they can't be stopped until somebody stops them and then they're stopped except Gunther's so different every match that Gunther's ever in if it's a big match his opponent always gets a ton of offense in John Cena got a ton of offense in like Gunther never gets out of a match unscathed
It's just his ability to survive, his ability to not really be there to care to put on a show, but to be there to simply win the match at any cost, and then to have the result be in his favor is what makes Gunther absolutely amazing.
He crushes dreams, not humans.
Yes.
He crushes souls.
Yeah, because he'll just lock on that sleeper or he'll lock on a power bomb or he'll do something dastardly.
And you'll go, wait, what?
And you'll go, yeah, no, that's fine.
Yes.
Yes.
Like there's this moment in this match where AJ Styles has Gunther in that calf crusher.
And we saw it from the same angle that the referee saw it on television where all of a sudden Gunther is released.
