GUNTHER is now the longest reigning Intercontinental Champion of the modern era. An impressive feat in itself, do you think he makes it to beat HTM’s reign? Feeling like a triple threat with Sheamus and Drew is the Wrestlemania plan. Does he even make it past that?

He's definitely near the top of my current favorites.
Could see older fan's that haven't watched in a good while being into him.

He awesome he needs to keep the belt to he breaks the record maybe have some really big take it off him. Then let him rest till the next royal rumble maybe 2025 and have him win that then goes for the tittle

I don't see him getting past Mania personally, Sheamus pinning Drew so he can finally mark the IC off his list seems more likely and GUNTHER can still stay strong and be ready to chase after whoever gets the Universal. I've got no idea how close he is to Honky but I would love to be wrong and see him break the record. GUNTHER is a great example of what's changed in the E under Hunter,you can pretty much guarantee we would'nt have gotten this run under Vince.

Is Orton ‘04 second place? Didn’t Santino do a whole shtick of breaking HTM’s record? Or did he end up failing?

Is Orton ‘04 second place? Shelton Benjamin believe or not. Randy Orton was 210 days. What defines the modern era exactly? The Rock had it for 265 days in 1997. I can only assume Gunther will have 20+ more days to pass The Rock anyway, and then it goes to 1990 and earlier for the longest reigns.

The article I seen said he was the longest reigning IC champion in the 21st Century,so I'm guessing that's what's modern era is? The list I seen had GUNTHER 245 days Shelton 244 days Cody 233 days Orton 209 days Nakamura 201 days

HTM (453 days) Pedro Morales (424 days) Macho Man (413 days) Muraco (384 days) Greg Valentine (284 days) Mr Perfect (279 days) Rock (264 days) GUNTHER (245 days) as of today Shelton (244 days)
and I hope he breaks them all before he loses it but not sure he makes it beyond Mania. However I believe we can safely assume that he makes it TO Mania as champ in 50 days which easily puts him in the top 5 of the longest reigning IC champs throughout ALL of history at 295 days and that's a good prize too so I wont be upset if he loses.

What are we around 50 days out to Mania? So at the very least he should move into the top 5 all time,impressive first title reign on the main roster. If my maths right,he's about 7 months away from breaking Honky's record. He'll have to keep it to around the beginning of September,Mania could be his biggest obstacle to get there.

Gunther has made that title important again. Roman made the mid card titles important again Pffft. Reigns held the IC title for 2 months before losing it to THE MIZ.

I think he loses it at Mania to move up to main event to be Cody challenger at some point in the summer.

As much as I'd love to see Sheamus win and complete the grand slam at Mania, I'd rather see Gunther beat HTM's record. He deserves it. Hes everything the Intercontinental title should be.
Getting ahead of myself, but he should also be the man to beat Cody.
