GUNTHER Responds to Rollins and Goldberg Rumors After RAW Title Win – After reclaiming the World Heavyweight Championship from Jey Uso on the June 9 episode of RAW, GUNTHER had strong words for fans and critics who doubted his return to dominance. Speaking on the official RAW Recap podcast, the now two-time champion made it clear that he was never surprised by the outcome—and that no one else should be either.
“I don’t know what’s surprising about that,” GUNTHER said, brushing off the chatter surrounding his title win. “I guess going in, it got perceived as a little bit of a nothing match, just a ‘Mania rematch and everybody was speculating like, Seth Rollins is gonna do something with his briefcase, Goldberg is gonna show up to finally kick my ass.”
In the weeks leading up to the match, rumors circulated online suggesting Seth Rollins might attempt a Money in the Bank cash-in, while others predicted a Goldberg return that would cost GUNTHER the title, setting up a potential clash at the rumored Saturday Night’s Main Event. Neither happened, and GUNTHER walked out of Phoenix with the gold once again around his waist.
“The reality is when I was World Heavyweight Champion the first time, all those big names, they stayed away from me, and for a very good reason,” he added, asserting that his dominance kept major threats at bay then—and will continue to do so now.
GUNTHER’s confident post-match remarks only reinforce the message he delivered in the ring: this title reign will be no fluke. With challengers looming and speculation swirling, GUNTHER remains unfazed—and firmly in control.
