Gunther Says Ludwig Kaiser Could Succeed In Hollywood Thanks To His Charisma

Gunther believes Ludwig Kaiser has the kind of talent that could eventually take him beyond the wrestling ring.

During the latest episode of What Do You Wanna Talk About?, the WWE World Heavyweight Champion spoke with Cody Rhodes about Kaiser and didn’t hold back in praising his longtime friend and former Imperium ally. Gunther said Kaiser’s charisma and communication skills stand out, even in a locker room filled with strong personalities.

According to Gunther, Kaiser’s ability to connect with people and his talent for languages make him someone who could realistically explore acting opportunities one day.

“Yeah, 100 percent,” Gunther responded when Cody Rhodes asked if he thinks Kaiser is capable of big things. “I think he’s underratedly charismatic and he’s a really good talker.”

Gunther went even further, suggesting Kaiser may eventually want to test himself outside of wrestling altogether. In his view, the WWE Superstar has the kind of presence that could translate naturally to acting.

“Like, I always tell him, it’s like, you need to go to Hollywood at some point, because he’s got something for the whole acting thing. Like, I always tell him, I think he would have been an amazing, like, theater actor or something like that. Because he’s very talented with languages, too.”

Gunther continued by praising Kaiser’s overall skill set, making it clear he sees major potential both inside and outside the squared circle.

“So, yeah, very, very, very talented person. When it comes to the wrestling side, yeah, of course.”

Rhodes admitted he doesn’t know Kaiser personally on the same level as Gunther, but said he enjoys watching him perform and agreed that the former Imperium member has significant upside in WWE.

Gunther also noted that Kaiser plays an important role in his personal life by helping keep him grounded. He added that veteran manager Paul Heyman has also given him valuable advice about the broader picture of the wrestling business.

Although Gunther and Kaiser were once aligned as part of Imperium, the two are currently separated on WWE television. Kaiser has been portraying the El Grande Americano character and is involved in a feud with the original El Grande Americano, Chad Gable. Kaiser has also appeared in Lucha Libre AAA using the Americano persona.
