Below are some top WWE news stories of the day, involving The Undertaker and Shane McMahon.
• On his Six Feet Under podcast, WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker said he’s really impressed by Intercontinental Champion Gunther’s work.
Here’s what The Deadman said:
“I really like him; I think the sky’s the limit for him; I think he’s a little bit of a throwback to a different era, but has the ability to work and tell stories.
I mean, he just had that match with Dom Mysterio, which is tough, a heel versus a heel is a tough match when somebody doesn’t turn.
He kept Dominik a heel and he kept himself a heel, and I’m really, really high on him. But, yeah, we would probably fistfight about two chops in.”
Gunther will defend the Intercontinental Title against Sami Zayn at WrestleMania 40.

• Shane McMahon made his return to WWE programming at WrestleMania 39 last year.
He faced The Miz in an impromptu match, but ended up tearing his quad just a few seconds into the match.
During an interview with Developmentally Speaking in October 2023, Declan McMahon gave the following update on his father:
“His rehab is going very, very well. He’s gotten back to jogging, squatting, and he’s starting to work out again. It’s getting kind of difficult for him to bend side to side. But his rehab is going really, really well. He’s making phenomenal progress.
So the doctor said all the time that he’s healing quicker than they thought, and when he tore it, he completely tore his quad tendon. That’s a very long, hard recovery, but he’s been crushing rehab. He’s been doing his thing. And he hopefully will get back soon.
And obviously, you want to see your dad be able to do what they love. My dad loves wrestling.”
It looks like Shane O’Mac is back to 100%. Below is a new photo of him:
