Gunther Expresses Interest in Two Accomplished Women Wrestlers for Imperium
Highlights
- Gunther, the leader of Imperium, expressed his hesitation to expanding the group, but potentially adding female members to their stable.
- Gunther made his choices due to their in-ring ability and potential to enhance Imperium's dominance.
- Adding a female member to Imperium could change the landscape of the women's division in WWE and solidify the group as one of the most dominant factions in professional wrestling.
In a recent interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling, WWE Superstar Gunther, the formidable leader of the Imperium stable, opened up about the potential expansion of his group. Imperium, known for its dominance on Monday Night Raw, used to be a four-person stable in NXT. The group currently consists of Gunther, Ludwig Kaiser, and Giovanni Vinci, and Gunther likes the makeup of the stable. But, if he had to pick, he knows who he'd like.
Gunther chose two talented members from the women's division to join their ranks. He noted, "I think now we're good how we are, but I think if we had to choose someone it would be either IYO [SKY] or Charlotte [Flair] I would think."
While neither necessarily fits with the current cultural makeup of the trio, Gunther seems to be leaning towards their respective in-ring ability and wrestling style to make his choice. Flair, a 14-time women's world champion, has consistently proved her prowess inside the squared circle. She is easily one of the top female competitors in WWE history. She's got a big match coming up at SummerSlam as she steps into a high-stakes Triple Threat Match for the WWE Women's Championship. Alongside Bianca Belair, Flair will be challenging the current titleholder, Asuka, in what promises to be an electrifying encounter.
His selection of Iyo Sky shouldn't come as a shock either, simply because she might be the female competitor in WWE with the most potential. She's on the rise and her star is just about to shine. Clearly, "The Ring General" knows that she's one of the fastest-rising female stars WWE has. She would help Imperium become even more dominant.

The conversation provided a glimpse into the thoughts and aspirations of the leader of Imperium, giving fans a rare insight into his vision for the group's future. He's obviously not looking to change the makeup of the group, but he's not shy about saying who he thinks would fit, assuming WWE ever wanted to expand the trio.
Will Imperium Ever Add A Female Member?
That Gunther mentioned two women as his choices speak to the fact he'd like a different element in the group. Perhaps he's thinking about having a member who can battle for championship gold in the women's division. As the landscape of WWE continues to evolve, aligning the group with a top female star could be a game-changer, altering the course of the women's division and solidifying Imperium's status as one of the most dominant factions in professional wrestling.
