• During an interview on SHAK Wrestling, WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker praised World Heavyweight Champion Gunther, Jey Uso, and Jacob Fatu.
Here’s what The Phenom said:
“Gunther… that’s my guy. I love that dude. Honestly, everything he does, because he’s so different. He can work with anybody, and he does his style regardless. And he’s not a bunch of flippy-dos and meaningless moves.
Everything he does makes sense. He cuts a great promo. He believes in who he is, and in turn, the audience believes that’s who he is. And I haven’t really seen him ever where he was that far different than what you see on TV, even backstage, which, you know me, I appreciate that more than anything.
I like Gunther obviously. Jey Uso is excellent, Jacob… he hasn’t even scratched the surface, dude.
I love watching Jacob. I mean, he’s got ‘IT’. Like, when he’s on TV, you want to see what he’s doing. And so, again, that’s just… he’s only, again, another one of those who has just scratched the surface of where he has the potential to go.”
