Gunther was impressed by The Miz's efforts on November 6 but looks forward to giving him a reality check at WWE Survivor Series 2023.
The Miz defeated Ricochet, Bronson Reed, and Ivar on Monday, November 6 to earn the right to face Gunther for the WWE Intercontinental Championship at WWE Survivor Series. Gunther watched the match and was actually impressed by what the former eight-time WWE Intercontinental Champion was able to do in order to earn his impending championship match.
Speaking with Byron Saxton after the November 6 Monday Night Raw, Gunther joked that The Miz "sports entertained" everyone with his victory and even managed to wrestle a little bit.
"I saw what happened out there tonight, and I gotta say, all my respects to The Miz. He put on a stellar performance. I would even say he sports entertained everybody out there tonight and he even wrestled a little bit. This man has capabilities that I wasn't aware of," Gunther joked. "Also, he has to face his reality now. You're right, at Survivor Series. The Miz is the rightful challenger to what's rightfully mine, the WWE Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship."
Ludwig Kaiser took the opportunity to jump in and boast about how people like The Miz, Tommaso Ciampa, and Johnny Gargano are not at the level of Imperium. Kaiser even made a joke about the stature of Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa.
"You see, Byron, some people are just better than others. Like The Miz, for example. The Miz, Tommaso Ciampa, Johnny Gargano; they're just not up to Imperium's standards. Get it? They're not up to our standards because they're short. What I'm trying to say is, that is exactly the reason why I'm. Is the most dominant force on Monday Night Raw and that is exactly what we are going to keep doing," said Kaiser.
