Undertaker has recently had positive things to say about Gunther, believing the sky's the limit for the former WWE Intercontinental Champion. Now, Gunther is getting a chance to respond.

Well speaking with Keith Whittier on the Witty Whittier podcast, Gunther says Undertaker has always been complimentary towards him and says he's not too surprised by it since he believed they work similar styles in the ring.

"I mean, that's great, obviously," he began. "Like you said, the feedback of the fans is what dictates our journey, how successful that's going to be, but I guess for every professional, it's always something else when it comes from up here or a colleague. It's nice to hear those nice things and I chat with him sometimes when we run into each other at a WrestleMania or something.

"The style he worked for his career, I think it's not that far off that he would be positive towards me because I think it's somewhat similar," he added.

Gunther has accomplished two things in his career that The Undertaker never could having won the King of the Ring tournament and the WWE Intercontinental Championship.

Now Gunther awaits WWE SummerSlam, where he will challenge the World Heavyweight Champion, whomever that may be, for the title in the Monday Night Raw brand's main event of the show.
