During the men's Royal Rumble at WWE Royal Rumble, Brock Lesnar stood face-to-face with WWE Intercontinental Champion Gunther.
The face-off was brief, and Lesnar was quickly eliminated by Bobby Lashley before the action could pick up between Brock and Gunther, but it left many fans wondering what would happen if Lesnar and Gunther battled in the ring.
Speaking on the Rob Brown Show, Gunther was asked about the brief moment with Brock in the Rumble.
"Of course, I wanted to," he said about wanting the moment with Brock in the Rumble. "Brock is a one in a millon guy, one in ten million. I always liked those guys that have stood out from the pack. I stopped watching wrestling for a while when I was a teenager and then I got back into it again when I started training. There was a time when Brock was young and he was wrestling Eddie (Guerrero) and Big Show and Kurt Angle, and the guy was fantastic. I always loved his matches and was very impressed with that and also with the recent years in WWE. I always thought it would a thing for wrestling and my style, that's my end boss. I've been portrayed as the end boss in wrestling for a lot of guys, but I think Brock could be my end boss. I really hope the match goes down at some point."
Gunther is the reigning WWE Intercontinental Champion. He entered the Royal Rumble at number one and finished as the runner up as he was eliminated by Cody Rhodes.
He is not currently booked to compete at WrestleMania 39.
