Folks, WWE’s Ring General is heading home, and he’s not coming alone. WWE Deutschland just dropped a bombshell—Gunther is set to obliterate two of WWE’s biggest stars inside steel cages during the upcoming European tour. Because let’s be real, regular matches are for mortals.
Gunther vs. Seth Rollins: Germany’s Got Carnage
On March 15 in Dortmund and March 16 in Hannover, Seth Rollins will step into the cage with Gunther. Which is great, because if there’s anything Seth loves, it’s wrestling bangers and making bad decisions about his knees.
Historically, Rollins hasn’t had the best luck against Gunther. The last time they had a singles match? It ended with Imperium jumping Seth faster than Twitter jumps on bad booking decisions. But hey, maybe this time the cage will actually keep Gunther’s goons out. (Spoiler: It won’t.)
Gunther vs. CM Punk: Homecoming Havoc in Vienna
Then, on March 29, Gunther will get the ultimate hometown hero treatment when he demolishes—I mean, competes against—CM Punk inside a steel cage in Vienna, Austria.
Now, let’s talk about the real question here: Why does CM Punk keep signing up for matches that involve getting chopped into another dimension? First, he stood toe-to-toe with Gunther at the 2024 Royal Rumble, where his chest turned the same shade of red as an overcooked bratwurst. Then, they ran it back at a WWE live event in Punk’s hometown of Chicago. And now? They’re putting these two inside a cage, where Punk will have zero escape routes and Gunther will have infinite chest-slapping opportunities.
CM Punk’s ribs? They had a good run.
WrestleMania Looms: Gunther vs. Jey Uso
After his European chop-fest, Gunther will head to WrestleMania 41 to defend his World Heavyweight Championship against Jey Uso—because when you win the Royal Rumble, your reward is apparently getting beaten up by a European tank.
Will Jey be the one to dethrone Gunther? Or will Gunther simply use Main Event Jey as another notch on his title reign belt? One thing is certain: Somebody’s chest is getting caved in.
