Gunther speaks about not wanting to live in the past.
Since making his WWE debut, Gunther has been a phenom across both the NXT UK and WWE main roster. Holding the Intercontinental Championship for over 600 days, Gunther is now the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. However, one of his biggest highlights did come during his reign as Intercontinental Champion.
While speaking on this week's RAW Recap, Gunther was asked if he views his WrestleMania 39 triple threat match with Sheamus and Drew McIntyre as a memorable moment to look back on.
"You know... You guys might not understand that, you are two pundits sitting in a studio. I'm the one that is out here week by week that carries his body out there to the entertainment of the audience. If I live in the past, if I think about the past, if I think about those big moments back then, I'm never going to progress forward. We are a little bit more than a week away from WrestleMania. There's a lot of weight on my shoulders right now. That's where my focus is. I don't want to reminisce about the past. I did what I did. I'm always going to stand for what I did. But that's it. I'm looking forward to fulfilling my duty as the World Heavyweight Champion."
Gunther is currently scheduled to face off with Jey Uso at WrestleMania 41 later this month.
