Gunther On Randy Orton: I Think Wrestling-Wise, We're Not That Far Apart From Each Other

Gunther speaks on Randy Orton moments after the pair's match at WWE Bash In Berlin.

At the Germany Premium Live Event, the two men met for the World Heavyweight Championship in the main event. In a brutal encounter that saw Gunther driven through the German announce table, the champion would rally back and choke out the fourteen time world champion to retain his crown.

While speaking to Gorilla Position in an interview following the show, Gunther was asked about Randy Orton and what makes Randy so special.

"He's more experienced than anyone, and I always think, first of all, a good wrestler stands out. When he enters the room, people turn their hats, and I think Randy is that kind of guy that wherever he is in the world, I think he will stand out and pop out. All that combined with his high-class skill in that ring and understanding efficiency in what we do out there and understanding the meaning of the little things out there. I think that's what makes him stand out. But on the other hand, I also think that's something that makes myself stand out. So I think wrestling-wise, we're not that far apart from each other as we were personally the last weeks. So yeah, there are a lot of guys out there that I can learn something from, but Randy is definitely one of those guys."

Elsewhere in the same interview, Gunther was asked if he believes in TNA's Joe Hendry. You can read more about that here.
