WWE Superstar Gunther spoke about his decision to move from Europe to the United States and become a full-time member of the WWE main roster.

Previously, the man named WALTER preferred to stay in Europe as part of the NXT UK brand and still working with the likes of PROGRESS and wXw.

This changed due to personal reasons, and now the renamed Gunther is part of the SmackDown roster alongside Ludwig Kaiser/Marcel Barthel.

Speaking to Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp, the Austrian Superstar revealed why he decided to wait this long to make a move to the States.

“I waited it out for a while. I really like living in Europe because it’s nice for all Europeans. It has its upsides” he began.

“Business-wise it was smart not to. My whole career I never did that, just jump for things right away. But it was the right time now to do it” the former PROGRESS Champion concluded.
