Cody Rhodes names WWE star (not Roman Reigns or The Rock) he wants to test himself against

This weekend, Cody Rhodes is determined to claim the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship from Roman Reigns and The Rock, along with all members of The Bloodline. However, he also revealed that he has a strong desire to face off against Gunther and challenge himself even further.

The Ring General is slated to compete in a match on Saturday night at The Grandest Stage of Them All. He will be putting his Intercontinental Championship on the line against Sami Zayn.

During his appearance on The MMA Hour, Cody Rhodes mentioned the previously mentioned match as one of the two that he is eagerly anticipating at WrestleMania XL. He proceeded to discuss how much he has been impressed by the Austrian Anomaly over the past year.

“Gunther is the type of wrestler that I want to wrestle and test myself against. I’m at all times impressed by his continued growth because you think he’s like amazing now, he’s only getting better.”

The American Nightmare referred to Gunther as a “bruiser”who is progressively becoming more aggressive with each passing day. When their match is ultimately scheduled, it is safe to say that the WWE Universe will be in for an exciting spectacle.

The Ring General recently chose not to comment on the outcome of the WrestleMania XL match between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes. He emphasized that ultimately, only a select few are chosen to receive the highest honor, regardless of who may deserve it.

A new era begins: Cody Rhodes’s WrestleMania debut against Gunther

After a brief hiatus for personal reasons, Gunther reappeared on WWE programming in January. By confronting Seth Rollins, he hinted that he may have his sights set on the World Heavyweight Championship. This could potentially foreshadow events that will unfold later in the year.

As of this writing, the main question remains whether The Ring General will lose his historic reign to Sami Zayn on The Grandest Stage Saturday night. Is Sami Zayn the appropriate contender to defeat Gunther and will this defeat need to occur at WrestleMania XL for Gunther to advance to the world title picture?

Despite being a WWE star, Cody Rhodes has made it known that this upcoming weekend holds immense significance for him. In fact, he has even contemplated the possibility of changing career paths if he is unable to defeat Roman Reigns in the main event of WrestleMania XL on Sunday night.
