The Ring General added that he wanted to contribute to wrestling by having great matches with young stars.

“Where I wanna get to is to be able to get into that spot, but then wrestle Ilja [Dragunov] in that position. And have great matches with Bron [Breakker] down the line in that position. Have great matches with Oba [Femi]. There’s many more of them. I feel like that’s what I wanna get to. I wanna be the guy that’s gonna be able to wrestle all of them, have great matches with all of them, and contribute that way,” he said.

Gunther talked about retiring WWE legend John Cena

After a year-long retirement tour, John Cena hung up his wrestling boots by tapping out to Gunther at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 13, 2025. This match cemented The Ring General’s name as one of the biggest heels in the company.

During the same edition of Cody Rhodes’ What Do You Wanna Talk About? podcast, Gunther admitted that facing John Cena in his retirement match felt more intense to him than a WrestleMania bout.

“That day, strangely, it felt like… it almost felt like more intense than WrestleMania that day,” he said.

After retiring Cena, The Ring General has retired another WWE legend, AJ Styles. The former WWE World Heavyweight Champion made Styles pass out from the Sleeper Hold at Royal Rumble 2026. It remains to be seen what the Triple H-led creative team has planned for his future.
