WWE legend Rey Mysterio has vowed to jump at the chance to take on The Ring’s General Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship.
Gunther’s next opponent for the Intercontinental Championship will be determined on the next episode of WWE SmackDown. Tonight in the blue brand, there will be a Fatal Four-Way Match, which will feature Karrion Kross, Santos Escobar, Rey Mysterio and Madcap Moss.
