The Ring General can now reign over his new home.
Gunther defeated Ricochet to win the Intercontinental Championship on the June 10 edition of SmackDown.
This marks the first championship gold for the former NXT UK Champion on the WWE main roster.
Gunther has been quite impressive since getting called up, but he has barely scratched the surface on the competitors he could clash with on the blue brand.
With a new champion crowned, here are six potential challengers for the new Intercontinental Champion Gunther.
