Gunther could be gearing up for a feud with Dominik Mysterio’s Judgment Day stablemate Damian Priest this summer. Ludwig Kaiser, a long-time ally of The Ring General, believes Liv Morgan’s recent kiss with Mysterio could play to the advantage of his fellow Imperium member.
On May 25, Gunther defeated Randy Orton in the King of the Ring final, earning a World Heavyweight Championship opportunity at SummerSlam. Priest currently holds the title and is set to defend it against Drew McIntyre at Clash at the Castle on June 15.
Kaiser told Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Riju Dasgupta that any distractions within The Judgment Day will benefit Gunther’s pursuit of the title.
“Well, man, you gotta be careful, right? Keep your eyes on the prize. Everything that could be a distraction is potentially dangerous. On the other hand, I gotta tell you from my position, or from our position, go ahead, you know, keep your eyes somewhere else because I can tell you at the end of the day you’re gonna shoot yourself in the foot.” [3:09 – 3:30]
Regardless of what happens next with Damian Priest, Dominik Mysterio, and Liv Morgan, Ludwig Kaiser is confident Gunther will become World Heavyweight Champion:
The Ring General is most certainly somebody to not underestimate, as everybody knows, and every little distraction going into this is only gonna be helpful for us. Even though I am very positive that The Ring General is not going to need any distractions from the other side in order to be successful.” [3:30- 3:53]
