Gunther ne cache pas son admiration pour Paul “Triple H” Levesque… et ses sentiments négatifs à l’endroit de Vince McMahon.
En entrevue pour Gorilla Position, l’ex-champion intercontinental de la WWE avoue qu’il ne souhaitait pas faire carrière aux États-Unis à cause du produit offert par Vince McMahon.
“I don’t know, but it was one of the reasons why, for a long time I didn’t want to go to the US. The product before Triple H was not what I enjoyed. I just didn’t want to be part of that. I am who I am and that’s what I can do best. A big part of that is I need to have my time in the ring and have that time to put on the matches I can put on. That chance would not be there under the old regime.”
Gunther est reconnaissant à l’endroit de Triple H, qui a vu beaucoup de bonnes choses en lui.
“With Triple H, he always saw that in me, and he always had that vision for me. I got lucky that a lot of things in my career took place at the right time. It was a little bit of a leap of faith when I first made the move over. Everything worked out in the end.”
