Gunther is considered to be one of the biggest stars in WWE at the moment, with the potential to rise even higher in the coming years. However, there is an issue with him that is hard to point out, according to wrestling veteran Kenny Bolin.
The Ring General is currently the World Heavyweight Champion, holding a title that he certainly deserves. While he has great in-ring capability and mic skills, Kenny still does not consider him to be completely at his peak. Although he admits that Gunther has a sizeable fan base already.
Speaking on UnSKripted, Kenny stated:
“There are some people that think more highly of Gunther than I do, my son is one of them. To me there is something missing with Gunther and I can’t exactly put my finger on what it is. And I am not saying I don’t like him. I am just saying that there is something there that doesn’t make him my number one guy in the company.”

If there is one storyline he can work on in WWE, Shubhajit would book Roman Reigns’ future with The Bloodline following WrestleMania XL, where he lost to Cody Rhodes. He would have Reigns’ stablemates excommunicate him, laying the foundation for a gimmick change for the former. After Reigns’ exit from the faction, Shubhajit would portray him as an anti-hero trying hard to claw his way back up to the top.
