Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's latest edition of UnSKripted, the wrestling veteran explained the risk of having Gunther lose his championship. He did mention the possibility of Drew McIntyre dethroning him.
"I don't wanna see Gunther lose at all, I wanna make this guy unbeatable. Drew McIntyre taking it from him would make sense, you know, big guy vs. big guy. But I don't wanna see Gunther expose as a loser in anything because he went out in that ring with honor," said Apter. [From 12:57 to 13:50]

"Gunther did an awesome job making history. That guy’s gonna be a major, major player here for WWE for a long time and it was my honor to do the favor for him and I’ve seen people, stupid people saying, ‘Booker got jobbed out.’ Let me just say this, Booker got jobbed out by Gunther and I wanna say this publicly just so everybody can hear it. I’d rather be jobbed out by Gunther than Gunther be jobbed out by me any day of the week," Booker said.
