As WrestleMania 40 approaches, the direction for Gunther, the Intercontinental Champion, remains uncertain due to a lack of credible opponents. Speculation is rife that Braun Strowman, a former Universal Champion, might return to WWE to challenge Gunther. Strowman’s recent appearance in Riyadh at The WWE Experience and the subsequent social media post by WWE has sparked rumors of his impending return to the ring.

Braun Strowman, at 40 years of age, has been off WWE television while recovering from an injury. His potential return could be a significant event, especially if he were to challenge Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship. Strowman’s star power makes him a formidable opponent for Gunther, and their matchup could become one of the memorable moments in WrestleMania history. However, there has been no official update on Strowman’s recovery or his possible comeback.

Gunther’s journey to WrestleMania XL has been tumultuous, with several changes to the initial plans for his appearance. Initially, there were talks of him facing Brock Lesnar, but those plans were scrapped. There was also speculation about a match with Bron Breakker following an impressive encounter at the Royal Rumble 2024, but Breakker’s move to SmackDown has seemingly put an end to that possibility. Additionally, rumors swirled about the possibility of Gunther losing his Intercontinental title in a match against Jey Uso on Monday Night RAW, which did not materialize.

With all these twists and turns, fans are left to wonder who will step up to face Gunther at the grand event in Philadelphia. The anticipation builds as the WWE universe contemplates various scenarios and potential opponents for The Ring General. The excitement is palpable, and the speculation will continue until the official announcement is made.
