>>18311757>Cawdy got more over with his busted up chest match with Seth.Yes overcoming the odds is 101 wrestling booking and basic storytelling, torn pec was a godsend in that case
>Gunther gets over on his matches.Gunther was IC champ for over a year and still coming out to silence or murmurs until The Miz feud when he actually got a proper feud and a proper gimmick as a typical bully and not some 'muh mat is sacred' geek.
