Ludwig Kaiser Comments On Rumors That Vince McMahon Wasn’t A Fan Of Imperium, Says Vince’s Retirement Was “Unimaginable”

Ludwig Kaiser comments on the the rumors of McMahon souring on the faction as well as his opinion on McMahon’s resignation

Before he stepped down as WWE CEO on July 22, it was rumored that Vince McMahon had lost interest in the Imperium duo despite GUNTHER being involved in a program with Shinsuke Nakamura. Speaking to WAZ, Kaiser was asked about the rumor.

“I don’t know anything about the rumors. It is also usually the case that we don’t let it get to us like that. From our side, we have been at Smackdown, totally satisfied. We were well received there, the feedback was consistently positive from the beginning. We can’t complain about our TV time either. If you look at what we have achieved in the few months, including Gunther’s Intercontinental Championship title, that speaks for itself. Of course, there are always rumors here and there, but many things are not true,”

Kaiser would also discuss Vince’s retirement, remarking that it was unimaginable.

“His resignation was unimaginable. They hadn’t rumored about it before. A blatant thing, he is an absolute revolutionary and a visionary. Especially when it comes to streaming things like the WWE Network, for example. Great for us that we still had the chance to work with him, there has also been close, good cooperation in recent weeks.”

GUNTHER and Kaiser were reunited with Giovanni Vinci (formerly Fabian Aichner) at WWE Clash at the Castle, making Imperium whole again. The faction is set to square off with Brawling Brutes at Extreme Rules.
