The latest episode of WWE Raw was tremendous. Fans witnessed many shocking moments. However, the show did not go well for Jey Uso. In the main event, he defended the World Heavyweight Championship against Gunthar. It was a hard-fought battle between the two, but in the end, Gunthar emerged victorious and won the title. Jey Uso’s reign lasted 51 days.
Despite this, the company has expressed confidence in “The Ring General.” Fans are now eagerly watching to see who Gunthar’s next challengers will be. Here, we will tell you about three potential rivals who could face WWE’s new World Heavyweight Champion Gunthar.
Goldberg
The buzz about a match between Goldberg and Gunthar has been around since the Bad Blood event last October. At that time, Gunthar insulted the veteran, which almost led to a fight, but officials intervened. Goldberg announced last year that he would have his final WWE match in 2025. Currently, he is training hard in the gym and looks ready to return.
Goldberg’s comeback seems imminent, and it’s likely he will soon challenge Gunthar for the title. The Night of Champions event will be held in Saudi Arabia on June 28, where Goldberg is extremely popular. WWE is rumored to have plans for Goldberg’s final match, and there’s also a strong possibility of a showdown between Goldberg and Gunthar at SummerSlam 2025.
Roman Reigns
At WrestleMania 41, Roman Reigns and CM Punk were betrayed by Paul Heyman, who sided with Seth Rollins. On the first episode of RAW afterward, Rollins, along with Bron Breaker, targeted Reigns. Since then, Roman has not appeared on WWE TV. Many speculate that Reigns will return to seek revenge against Rollins, but the storyline could take a different direction.
Roman Reigns could challenge Gunthar upon his return. Meanwhile, CM Punk has gone his own way and will challenge John Cena for the WWE Championship at Night of Champions. Roman might have a feud with Rollins for a while before targeting the gold. If Roman faces Gunthar, it will be a huge moment for the audience.
Brock Lesnar
It’s unclear what the future holds under Triple H’s leadership, but fans are hopeful as rumors of Brock Lesnar’s return circulate. Lesnar has not appeared on TV since his loss to Kodi Rhodes in 2023. Fans have been eagerly waiting for his comeback.
Everyone is eager to see a dream match between Lesnar and Gunthar. Gunthar himself has mentioned the possibility of a match with Brock multiple times. Now that Gunthar is champion, it might be the perfect time for Brock to return. A blockbuster match could be booked between the two at SummerSlam 2025. It seems Triple H might already be planning this.
