Gunther Does Not Linger On Past Independent Wrestling Matches, Prefers To Be In The Moment

Gunther discusses how he looks at his independent wrestling matches.

Before he signed with WWE and during his initial run in NXT UK Gunther was known as Walter and was one of the top talents in the world when it came to sheer in ring ability. Now, Gunther is on top of the world and nearing the record of becoming the longest reigning Intercontinental Champion of all time in just a couple of weeks.

In a new interview with Fightful, Gunther noted that he doesn’t like to reflect on the past.

“It’s crazy, right. Everything happens so fast. I for myself, I honestly gotta say I don’t feel very different to how I felt during that time professionally. I go out there and do what I do that night to the best of my abilities. Thankfully, I’m a position where that’s what people like to see. I think, like I said, I go step by step. What happened is behind me. What’s in front of me, that’s tomorrow. I’m gonna focus on today. I’m not a person that reminisces a lot about the past or dreams about the future. I try to stay focused on the moment and get the most out of it. But at some point, I think once it’s all said and done with my career or there’s a break or something like that, I’m gonna take time and re-enjoy a lot of those.”
