In an appearance on The Rich Eisen Show, Gunther discussed his upcoming match against John Cena at Saturday Night's Main Event. The Ring General plans to end Cena's career with a defeat by making him tap out for the first time in more than 20 years.

"The last chapter will be written on Saturday. The question: is this going to be a happy end or is it going to be a heartbreak? I’m going to do everything in my power that it’s going to be a heartbreak... I’m looking for him to give up, to admit he can’t go no more. It’s what I’m going to go for, and I think that’s where the drama is as well in that match," Gunther said. [H/T Newsweek.com]

The last star to make Cena tap was Kurt Angle, who used his patented Ankle Lock. Saturday Night's Main Event will be held at the Capital One Center in Washington, D.C.
