Gunther mentions Bill Goldberg following his world title victory against Jey Uso on WWE RAW

As seen during the June 9th 2025 edition of WWE RAW, Jey Uso lost the world heavyweight title against Gunther in a rematch from WrestleMania 41. While appearing on the RAW Recap show, Gunther commented on his victory…

“Thank you (for congratulating me on becoming WWE World Heavyweight Champion). Of course I am. You said it caught everybody by surprise. I don’t know what’s surprising about that. I guess going in, it got perceived as a little bit, like, of a nothing match, just a ‘Mania rematch and everybody was speculating like, Seth Rollins is gonna do something with his briefcase, Goldberg is gonna show up to finally kick my ass.”

“The reality is when I was World Heavyweight Champion the first time, all those big names, they stayed away from me, and for a very good reason. Because ever since I arrived in this company, I’ve been the most dominant guy around here, and yes, I lost at WrestleMania and yes, I lost to Jey Uso and you know what? Give him credit for that. But this is a marathon, not a sprint and in that case, nobody matches me. Nobody’s got the mental ability, nobody’s got the confidence, nobody’s got the stamina to last that long. It’s only me. I’m competing in my own class.” (quotes courtesy of Fightful.com)
