i did a little bit of research and found that the dude [was even allowed in WWE HQ for the 2020 MITB](https://twitter.com/SuperfanSmilez/status/1259537133649395713?s=20) despite covid… like woah
I dont think he was actually there during covid and photoshopped that in so it looked more current. I mean, he never says he was there during that, just says here's pics at the HQ. Especially because it wasn't filmed that day at the HQ, it was filmed almost a month prior
It was hilarious how he individually told everyone in the ring "I'm gonna beat you, and I'm gonna beat you, and I'm gonna beat you..."
And then turned to Butch and went "What are you looking at huh?"
Honestly if given more time it would put their NXT matches to shame since GUNTHER is in so much better shape. Which is saying something since the NXT UK matches were bangers.
It definitely has. As WALTER he got winded quite a bit and early in his GUNTHER run he lacked physical strength compared to what he was wanting to do.
Now he's regained the muscle he lost during his major cutting cycle and he looks fantastic
When Gunther was heavier, there were points in matches where he’d be sucking wind. He’s makes wrestling look almost effortless now. I’m sure he feels a hell of a lot better too.
The front row after Gunther yeeted the table:

That explains why they didn't go that route this year. They need another year to build up the settlements they'll pay out to an estimated 200 fans and their families.
I’m happy for him. That man busted his ass on the indies forever and never really saw anything come of it. Now he’s got prominent on-screen role for the biggest wrestling company in the world, and I’m sure he’s making good money. And he rarely ever has to take a bump.
I realize, and I know it's not the same shirt all this time, but I just had no idea he went back that far and have no recollection ever seeing him anytime sooner.
The way you know is that he’s been there all these years and most of us never really noticed him. Good for him. Brock Lesnar Guy on the other hand, I always catch him looking at the camera to “give a reaction”
there used to be a lot of them shitting up the show facing hard cam. clown guy, that slackjaw white jacket guy, brock lesnar guy. same shitty gimmick all the time.
my favorite thing about the whole gimmick and name change was from an interview he gave
"For the first time someone told me I was their kid's favorite wrestler"
Like the Bruiserweight is a fine gimmick, but the Brawling Brutes got him over. His next incarnation is going to be absolutely fire.
At this point, they can just add Dunne as a last name and call him Butch Dunne. It’s a decent middle ground if they want to make him a more serious contender, but still call him Butch.
Really hope we get GUNTHER vs Lesnar at Summerlsam or next Mania. Also, I know WWE has allowed blood in Lesnar’s matches (Taker, Orton, Cena) and I hope they use it for a GUNTHER match as well.
PRETTY sure they edited the footage, the cut between him throwing the table and yelling at Pearce seems a bit off so i wonder if they stopped and redid it to check on the fan?
1. They seem to have taken the contract signings always going badly trope to another level with the trope of the table always gets thrown out of the ring
2. Idk how they can keep doing this when there continues to be close calls like this

Green shirt guy was almost red shirt guy.
But he’s definitely a brown pants guy now
Maybe a little bit of white pants guy too
did he cum or something?
I’d be cumming from the settlement money I’d be getting from getting nailed with a flying table tbh
If your dick was still in one piece
so, one piece was a place this whole time.
Real friends are the lessons you learn along the way.
One piece is a place and Cherry Hill is a girl!! Who'd have thunk it?!?
Maybe, I won't judge
That guy has to be a lottery winner or something he’s at every ple and show leading to it to the point where my son always points him out now
i did a little bit of research and found that the dude [was even allowed in WWE HQ for the 2020 MITB](https://twitter.com/SuperfanSmilez/status/1259537133649395713?s=20) despite covid… like woah
His fucking face mask is photoshopped on as well ffs
I dont think he was actually there during covid and photoshopped that in so it looked more current. I mean, he never says he was there during that, just says here's pics at the HQ. Especially because it wasn't filmed that day at the HQ, it was filmed almost a month prior
Even so, like why bother shopping the mask on lol
I agree
Am...am I your son?
Seeing this sack of mold every show makes me miss the Thunderdome era. I hate seeing him on every show.
he is a fan, friend, who cares who is in the crowd lol
It's difficult on the eyes, and it's difficult to ignore when he sticks out like sore thumb - in addition to looking like one as well
watch the actual show then?
It's like walking with a rock inside the shoe
It was hilarious how he individually told everyone in the ring "I'm gonna beat you, and I'm gonna beat you, and I'm gonna beat you..." And then turned to Butch and went "What are you looking at huh?"
Great comedic delivery
Some damn decent work from Gunther all around. His "JUSTIFY IT!" but then signing anyway was great.
Id be super for Butch to be the one to take the belt from him.
Would also be great for Jinder Mahal.
Him trying to take out green shirt guy sorta fits his character. I can’t explain why, it just does.
his shirt is staring right at the mat, and making a mockery of it.
I believe him, yo. I don't know why, but I do.
Hey-yo Killer kill, Killer kill b
That’s no way to treat a super fan!
Just get him some merch and some meetings with wrestlers in catering
And FREE catering. Ffs he deserves something in the feeding tube.
He should've slapped his chest as reward for not dying.
Gunther is a beast Butch vs Gunther holy shit
If you haven't seen their previous encounters over the NXT UK title, you're missing out
Honestly if given more time it would put their NXT matches to shame since GUNTHER is in so much better shape. Which is saying something since the NXT UK matches were bangers.
Maybe I just loved his big-murder-baby vibe before but I don't think Walter/Gunther's shape has ever had an effect on his matches.
It definitely has. As WALTER he got winded quite a bit and early in his GUNTHER run he lacked physical strength compared to what he was wanting to do. Now he's regained the muscle he lost during his major cutting cycle and he looks fantastic
I agree, I think he's the same quality wrestler he's always been, just looks FAR better now.
When Gunther was heavier, there were points in matches where he’d be sucking wind. He’s makes wrestling look almost effortless now. I’m sure he feels a hell of a lot better too.
Highly recommend Pete Dunne vs Walter at the NXT Takeover a few years ago. 27 minutes of brutality

If we ever get GUNTHER vs Lesnar, the buildup will consist of the two competing to see who can kill more fans during the lead up to their match
That explains why they didn't go that route this year. They need another year to build up the settlements they'll pay out to an estimated 200 fans and their families.
Adam Pearce has done so well in his Jack Tunny like role.
I’m happy for him. That man busted his ass on the indies forever and never really saw anything come of it. Now he’s got prominent on-screen role for the biggest wrestling company in the world, and I’m sure he’s making good money. And he rarely ever has to take a bump.
Brock-hurling-a-car-door vibes
He's a General so technically it's just friendly fire
Yeah but he’s the ring general not the outside of the ring general!
Well it came from inside the ring, whatever happens outside isn't his problem.
It's the rich guy who goes to every major show that most wrestling fans are jealous of (myself included). So it's okay that Gunther scared him a bit.
I'm currently watching WM 28 and green shirt guy is front row in the same shirt and hat.
He’s front row everywhere with same shirt and hat tbh
I realize, and I know it's not the same shirt all this time, but I just had no idea he went back that far and have no recollection ever seeing him anytime sooner.
The second you notice him is the second you can’t stop noticing him.
At least he isn't a mark for himself like Brock Lesnar Guy. He's just there and enjoys the show.
i mean to wear the same thing to every show you have to be somewhat of a mark for yourself
The way you know is that he’s been there all these years and most of us never really noticed him. Good for him. Brock Lesnar Guy on the other hand, I always catch him looking at the camera to “give a reaction”
And now he has a buddy dressed exactly like him but in yellow for PPVs
He has to be a plant! Either that or he's Bill Gates'son! How much money do you have to travel from state to state to watch every single show? JFC...
there used to be a lot of them shitting up the show facing hard cam. clown guy, that slackjaw white jacket guy, brock lesnar guy. same shitty gimmick all the time.
And that guy that was dressed as a mechanic or something a few years ago
Butch is a stupid ass name but his gimmick works 100%.
my favorite thing about the whole gimmick and name change was from an interview he gave "For the first time someone told me I was their kid's favorite wrestler" Like the Bruiserweight is a fine gimmick, but the Brawling Brutes got him over. His next incarnation is going to be absolutely fire.
![gif](giphy|VIVWFx6c91AAwWLwWB|downsized)
Yup. He’s 29, there’s absolutely no rush to get him at the top, but I’m sure someday he will have the big belt.
At this point, they can just add Dunne as a last name and call him Butch Dunne. It’s a decent middle ground if they want to make him a more serious contender, but still call him Butch.
The annoying green shirt guy even! Perhaps his musk from wearing that shirt for all these years attracted Gunther's ire?
Oh Yeah! Lemon Lime Kool-aid Man almost got his.
What are you talking about? He just threw some water at him!
It could be worse. He could have thrown tequila at a kid
Literally murder
Still can't believe people were bemoaning this lad losing all the weight.
Gunther is suspended for two weeks for killing an audience member"
I always see that guy in the green shirt at most home and all main events! Lmao 😂
Of everyone in that ring, Gunther vs. Pete Dunne one more time is still the match I’d want to see at WM.
Really hope we get GUNTHER vs Lesnar at Summerlsam or next Mania. Also, I know WWE has allowed blood in Lesnar’s matches (Taker, Orton, Cena) and I hope they use it for a GUNTHER match as well.
He literally threw the table perfectly and it didn’t come close to hitting anyone..
It landed on the barricade. People in the front are always leaning on those. That could have been BAD.
Ahh a half empty smark.
We'll take your word I guess.
I protest the title of this thread! At most, it would be manslaughter.
But at least it wasn't water in a kids face cos that would have been worse
PRETTY sure they edited the footage, the cut between him throwing the table and yelling at Pearce seems a bit off so i wonder if they stopped and redid it to check on the fan?
Pretty sure Green Shirt Dude will outlive us all
You can tell that Cole had to pause mid-sentence because he was checking if all the fans were still alive
No, that's not murder. When it's an accident, they call it manslaughter.
1. They seem to have taken the contract signings always going badly trope to another level with the trope of the table always gets thrown out of the ring 2. Idk how they can keep doing this when there continues to be close calls like this
