Former NXT Champion Ilja Dragunov is part of this year&#8217;s WWE Draft. Dragunov is also a former NXT United Kingdom Champion, ending the reign of the longest-reigning champion, Gunther, at NXT Takeover 30.



Gunther and Dragunov have battled both in and out of the WWE and, speaking in an interview with Gorilla Position, Gunther gave his thoughts on possibly seeing his long-term rival again.



Some rumors have Dragunov joining Guther’s faction Imperium after the draft. While Gunther was full of praise for Dragunov, he wasn’t as enthusiastic about teaming with him.

“I think Ilja is definitely a better enemy than a friend,” said Gunther.

<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
“Ilja is one of us in the terms of like – Kaiser, Ilja, and I, we all wrestled each other years back. So, I naturally want him to be where I am. And I think he&#8217;s somebody that brings out the best in me and I&#8217;m someone that brings out the best in him. But I think before that can happen, he has his own way to go, wherever he ends up. And further down the line, I think it’s a no-brainer that this has to happen a few times,” he added.

Gunther has just come off another epic title reign, losing the Intercontinental Championship after 666 days to Sami Zayn at WrestleMania 40. Meanwhile, Dragunov dropped the NXT Championship to Trick Williams earlier this week.
