After Bronson Reed, another 300-pound WWE star could face Gunther in a first-time-ever match

The latest WWE RAW episode saw a hard-hitting title match between Gunther and "Big" Bronson Reed. Going by his recent tweet, it seems like Ivar might be next in line for a shot at the Intercontinental title!

After Erik's absence due to injury, Ivar of the Viking Raiders has rejuvenated his career of late by getting an unlikely singles push. The company has historically written tag teams off TV if one of the members gets hurt. However, they have made an exception in the Viking Raiders' case.

Ivar, fka Hanson, picked up a significant singles win over Kofi Kingston on the October 9th episode of RAW, and backstage sources have also confirmed the promotion's plans to utilize him as a solo talent, with Valhalla (Sarah Logan) by his side.

Shortly after Gunther's successful title defense over Bronson Reed in an evenly-contested showdown, Ivar put out an intriguing tweet, teasing that he could challenge Gunther next.

The Imperium Leader has never faced a Viking Raider in WWE, but it looks like Ivar is clearly setting himself up for a massive championship opportunity.
