Gunther Couldn’t Care Less About WWE’s Celebrity Visitors

Gunther WWE

Gunther has an interesting take on celebrity visitors in WWE.

Celebrity visitors and matches are quite common for the company’s top premium live events.

Recently, music artist Jelly Roll was a part of SummerSlam 2025. He teamed up with Randy Orton for a tag team match against Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre, but did not secure the victory.

Gunther does not want to have conversations with celebrities

While speaking on Six Feet Under, The Ring General explained that, although he respects their act and might even think they are cool, he has never been the type of person who seeks out photographs with famous people.

In fact, even backstage, he is open to having a brief conversation with a celebrity if it’s for the company. However, if its for personal reasons, Gunther usually recommends the company choose someone else.

No, not really. I never had that. Yeah, I could never, I could never really… I don’t know, follow that. I wasn’t… Obviously there are people you look up to and be like, ‘They’re cool, maybe I can learn something.’

But also, like, I’m usually that kind of guy—when I don’t know, somebody’s backstage, like somebody famous is a visitor and stuff—and they look for people like, ‘Hey, can you meet him?’

I’m like, ‘Please ask somebody else.’ I can do it for the company, like have a little chit-chat and blah blah blah, of course. But if it’s personal to me, it’s like… maybe take somebody that would enjoy it. [h/t: Ringside News]

Gunther was dethroned as the World Heavyweight Champion at SummerSlam 2025 by CM Punk. His next feud is yet to reveal itself.
