GUNTHER successfully defended his World Heavyweight Championship against Randy Orton at Bash In Berlin, following their previous encounter in the King of the Ring finals. This rematch gave GUNTHER another opportunity to work with the experienced Orton, which former WCW executive Eric Bischoff believes was highly beneficial for the champion’s development.

On his podcast, Bischoff praised Randy Orton’s in-ring skills, particularly his ability to pace matches, engage the audience, and sell moves convincingly. He emphasized that working with Orton provides invaluable learning experiences for GUNTHER, exposing him to different situations and crowd interactions that will help him grow as a performer. Bischoff also drew parallels between GUNTHER and Jade Cargill, noting how both newer talents have benefited from working with established stars in high-profile events.

Additionally, Bischoff commended GUNTHER’s physical transformation, viewing it as a sign of the champion’s dedication to improving his overall presentation on WWE television. This commitment, coupled with the experience gained from working with veterans like Orton, is seen as crucial for GUNTHER’s continued growth and success in the wrestling industry.
