Former Nexus Member Wade Barrett Rules Out To Go Against Gunther For A Match

Former Nexus member Wade Barrett praises current Intercontinental Champion, Gunther. “He is an absolute phenomenon, to be honest. I think if he didn’t have the Intercontinental Championship, we’d already be seeing him compete with people like Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns for world titles, but I think he’s on his way. I think he’s in a really good position. I think there is not a single weak point in his game.”

The most impressive thing for me is not the machetes or his tough style, which are great and I love them. He’s not on the technical side of the game about him. Gunther, I think his cardio as a heavyweight is what impresses me the most of all.

Wade Barrett rules out going against Gunther

What we read above are words that Wade Barrett spoke a couple of months ago when he was asked about Gunther’s current success in WWE. The Ring General just became the longest-reigning Intercontinental Champion of all time. More recently, the company’s commentator was asked about the possibility of returning to the ropes to try to dethrone him. On this occasion, the former wrestler who led The Nexus makes it clear that it does not cross his mind to put on his boots again to pursue that feat.

No, I have no surgeries planned in the future. “I feel pretty good,” he says on the Even Stronger podcast with Kazeem Famuyide. Now, of course, is when people start sending me messages: ‘When are you going to get back in the ring? What about Gunther?’ No way! “I’m not going to get into the ring with Gunther, I can assure you that. “Perhaps we could also look at this comment as an indication that although he does not want to return to fight with the monarch, he could do so for another reason because, in reality, it does not guarantee that he will not fight again.

Wade Barrett had his last match on the April 4, 2016 episode of WWE RAW, when The League Of Nations lost to The New Day. Let’s remember that he only won one title during his years as a Superstar and that was precisely the Intercontinental Championship, five times.
