Gunther Hits 100 Days As WWE World Heavyweight Champion

Gunther hits the 100 day mark as WWE World Heavyweight Champion.

The reign of 'The Ring General' began back at SummerSlam, as he defeated Damian Priest to win the championship. Since then, Gunther has defended the belt on two occasions, defeating Randy Orton at Bash In Berlin and Sami Zayn on the October 7 edition of WWE Raw. Guther is now only 18 days from passing Damian Priest as the second longest reigning World Heavyweight Champion in history behind Seth Rollins.

Gunther's reign with the World Heavyweight Championship started just months after his historic reign with the Intercontinental Championship came to an end. That reign lasted 666 days and saw Gunther pick up wins over stars like Drew McIntyre, Sheamus, Ricochet, Braun Strowman, The Miz, Jey Uso, Bronson Reed, Chad Gable, Xaiver Woods, Rey Mysterio, and Shinsuke Nakamura.

Gunther is set to come face-to-face with Damian Priest on the November 11 edition of WWE Raw. Check out the updated lineup for the show by clicking here. Fightful will have full coverage of the show as it airs, beginning at 8 p.m. EST.
