The WWE has been witnessing a thrilling tale of talent and power, with one of its strongest stars, Gunther, reigning supreme. However, amidst the chaos, a Hall of Famer has thrown a wrench into the mix, stating that Finn Balor, a member of The Judgment Day, could potentially take down the dominant Gunther by the end of the year.

Gunther, known as The Ring General, recently faced Damian Priest at Survivor Series, with the World Heavyweight Title on the line. The match was intense, with both wrestlers displaying impressive skills, but interference from Finn Balor turned the tables, allowing Gunther to retain his title. The aftermath saw Gunther landing a high boot on Balor, signaling a growing rivalry between the two.

Teddy Long, a WWE legend, weighed in on the situation during an exclusive interview on Sportskeeda’s The Wrestling Time Machine. When asked if he thought Balor could win against Gunther, Long exhibited optimism, hoping that Balor would not be wasted in the WWE creative department. “I hope so, I hope they are not just wasting him, you know what I mean. I hope this kind of moves him up in the ranks,” he said.

This sentiment is shared by fans and critics alike, as Gunther’s aura of invincibility has been slightly tarnished by the interference from Balor. The question on everyone’s mind is: can Balor capitalize on this momentum and finally bring down Gunther’s reign of terror?

While Gunther has received praise from another WWE veteran, Dutch Mantell, who defended the creative department, citing their willingness to experiment and try new things, fans remain skeptical about the German’s ability to withstand the pressure. According to Mantell, “when they do these angles, they’re throwing at the wall and they’re gonna see what sticks. So, while this thing may not have stuck, well, they’ll clean the wall off and they’ll throw something new at it the next time out, and we’ll see what we get out of this.”

As the stage is set for a thrilling rematch between Gunther and Balor at the upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event, the question remains: can Balor finally dethrone the powerful Gunther? Only time will tell, but fans are eager to find out.

The WWE universe is filled with unpredictable twists and turns, and the rivalry between Gunther and Balor is no exception. Will Balor be able to channel his inner doubts and overcome the odds to bring down the mighty Gunther, or will Gunther continue to reign supreme? The drama unfolded, and fans are left in a state of hype, waiting with bated breath for the next move.

It is undeniable that Gunther is one of the strongest stars in WWE, with a presence that commands attention. However, Balor’s determination to dethrone him is genuine, and if anyone can do it, he might just be the one. As the clock ticks closer to the highly anticipated rematch, the question remains: can Balor finally dethrone the powerful Gunther? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure – the WWE universe is in for a treat as this rivalry continues to unfold.
