#2. Gunther Issues an Open Challenge
When WWE can’t figure out an opponent for a major star, they often turn to surprise opponents and open challenges. Seth “Freakin” Rollins was without an opponent heading into WrestleMania 38, where he ended up facing the returning Cody Rhodes.
More recently, Randy Orton’s Mania match with Kevin Owens was cancelled after KO suffered an untimely injury. The Viper ended up squashing Joe Hendry in a viral moment at The Show of Shows last year. WWE could tease a similar angle for Gunther this year.
The Ring General could head into The Show of Shows without a clear direction and could decide to issue an open challenge in Vegas. As for potential opponents, surprises could range from veterans like Chris Jericho to rising NXT talent like Ricky Saints.
