GUNTHER Closing in on Honky Tonk Man’s Intercontinental Title Record
September 3, 2022
GUNTHER, the current WWE Intercontinental Champion, is inching closer to breaking the legendary Honky Tonk Man’s record reign. With 444 days under his belt, GUNTHER is just a few days away from surpassing Honky Tonk Man’s WWE Hall of Fame-listed 453-day reign.
“At least for a few more days,” Honky Tonk Man remarked during a virtual signing with Highspots when asked to sign something as the “Greatest Intercontinental Champion of All-Time.”
While Honky Tonk Man acknowledges GUNTHER’s impressive run, he expressed his confusion about the reported 453-day reign. “It’s been interesting. I haven’t really kept up with it,” Honky Tonk Man admitted. “I don’t know where someone is posting this 453 days. They’re shorting me one day, and that’s not fair. I got the 454 days from Howard Finkel, he was the one who told me.”
If GUNTHER successfully defends his title on September 7, he will officially break Honky Tonk Man’s record and solidify his place in WWE history. Fans have been eagerly anticipating this milestone, and Honky Tonk Man’s comments only add fuel to the excitement surrounding GUNTHER’s reign.
