Gunther, the WWE Intercontinental Champion, was absent from the Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia.

Gunther's visa issues have prevented him from participating in events outside the US, including the upcoming Elimination Chamber in Australia.

Recent reports indicate that Gunther is restricted from leaving the US for the next six months due to visa limitations.

Despite the setback, Gunther remains committed to resuming his international appearances by April or May.
