WWE Intercontinental Champion Gunther would like to face Brock Lesnar.
In an interview with Gorilla Position ahead of WWE Clash at the Castle, Gunther was asked about a potential match with Brock Lesnar at a stadium show in Vienna, the capital of his homeland, Austria. He initially responded by noting that he hopes to see WWE hold a major show in Europe every year.
“I hope so. I hope anyway, this is successful now, and it becomes a little of a tradition. In Europe overall, they come back once a year or something like that with an event like that," Gunther said.
When again asked about potentially facing Lesnar, he replied, “It would be great. I think he’s a fantastic wrestler and I hope to get in the ring with him."
Lesnar last appeared on WWE programming at SummerSlam, where he unsuccessfully challenged Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship in a Last Man Standing match.
Gunther will defend the WWE Intercontinental Championship against Sheamus at WWE Clash at the Castle. Check out the full card here.
