Gunther is all about being a traditionalist in wrestling and, as such, does not give fans a glimpse at his real life. However, the star was caught breaking character recently in a very rare tender moment.

The Ring General is married to Jinny, another pro wrestler and ex-WWE star. They met in the Indies and got married later in April 2023. They had their first child, a boy, on December 27 last year. She retired from wrestling after dealing with a concussion, which led to her deciding that the injury was as far as she wanted it to get. She didn't want to deal with anything worse than that, should she return to a ring.

In a rare tender moment caught on camera, Gunther was spotted breaking his usual character with his son. His wife posted an adorable picture of the two together on her Instagram story. The Ring General reposted it on his social media as well.

This was a very rare instance of him breaking character. As a traditionalist, the World Heavyweight Championship contender usually loathes to do so.

Gunther's match against Damian Priest at WWE SummerSlam is going to see a huge change

Gunther will be wrestling Damian Priest next month at SummerSlam as the former challenges for the World Heavyweight Championship. The star has his work cut out for him, but Priest appears to have taken the route of not using Judgment Day to win his matches despite being the group leader.

It remains to be seen if he will turn face by the time the bout comes along, and if so, will he be able to retain the title against someone as indomitable as the Ring General? Either way, the world title might see a major change in the next month.
