WWE/Royal Rumble 2024

On this evening’s WWE Raw, the enduring Intercontinental Champion GUNTHER made a surprising announcement by confirming his participation in the upcoming Royal Rumble 2024.

During a captivating in-ring segment, the Intercontinental titleholder, GUNTHER, expressed his intent to step into the ring at the 2024 Royal Rumble, fueled by his near miss at victory in the 2023 edition.

Having entered at the first position in the 2023 Royal Rumble, GUNTHER showcased his dominance by eliminating five opponents. The Ring General’s impressive performance culminated in a one-hour and ten-minute stint, making history as the longest-standing participant in a Rumble match.

Despite his remarkable feat, GUNTHER faced elimination at the hands of Cody Rhodes, who ultimately went on to headline WWE WrestleMania 39 in a contest against Roman Reigns.

Undeterred by his loss in the Royal Rumble, GUNTHER continued to hold the Intercontinental Championship throughout 2023, securing the record for the lengthiest reign in the history of the title.
