James Gunn Declares Eagly Better Than Krypto, and Reveals Who'd Win in a Fight — GeekTyrant
James Gunn brought the laughs and some lighthearted DC Universe debates to San Diego Comic-Con, and fans got a clear answer to a fun but fierce question… who's the ultimate DC super pet: Eagly or Krypto? During his busy Comic-Con schedule, Gunn made appearances at the Peacemaker Season 2 panel and the fan-packed Peacefest event. Fresh off the promotional tour for Superman , this was Gunn's first public outing since the film's release, and he seemed ready to have a little fun with the crowd. When the inevitable question came up about who's the better super pet, John Cena and Gunn didn't hesitate. Both backed Peacemaker's winged MVP. 'Eagly,.' Gunn said Eagly 'is better behaved than Krypto.' Eagly's lovable antics and loyalty turned him into a breakout star in Season 1. He's the kind of pet who brings you dead rodents as tokens of affection and dishes out bear-hug levels of love, basically a bald eagle channeling golden retriever energy. But while Eagly wins the 'good boy' award, Gunn had no illusions about what would happen in an all-out brawl. 'Krypto would win in a fight because he's super strong.' Superman 's version of Krypto is a wild ball of chaos. He's destructive, playful, and just a little out of control. From wrecking parts of the Fortress of Solitude to nipping at Superman's heels, Krypto is a powered-up pet tornado with a cute face and a lot of attitude. Still, Gunn's got a knack for turning unexpected characters into fan favorites, whether it's a raccoon with a rocket launcher, a monosyllabic tree, or a hug-happy eagle. His love for his animal co-stars is clear, and they've become crucial pieces in the worlds he builds, both in Marvel and DC. So sure, Krypto might take the win in a fight, but Eagly's got something better… Gunn's heart. Peacemaker Season 2 premieres August 21st on HBO Max.

Top WWE Superstar Is Holding Out Hope For John Cena Match
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. WWE World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER has expressed his desire to face his SmackDown counterpart, Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena, in a dream match. In a new interview, "The Ring General" praised Cena's ongoing farewell tour and left the door open for a potential clash before the legend retires. With both men currently holding their brand's top championship, a potential match would be a colossal, first-time-ever encounter. GUNTHER shared his thoughts on the possibility in a recent interview with RadioTimes. A Chance For A Dream Match While speaking about John Cena's year-long retirement tour, GUNTHER was respectful and complimentary. He then stated that he hopes their paths will cross in the ring before Cena's career is over. "I have not interacted with him or seen him much because he's on SmackDown mostly," GUNTHER said. "But who knows, there's still a long time left, so maybe there's a chance to get in there with him before he hangs it up." A Tale Of Two Champions A match between GUNTHER and John Cena would be a fascinating clash of styles and characters. GUNTHER is the dominant, no-nonsense leader of Imperium and is revered for his brutally realistic, hard-hitting in-ring style. His historic 666-day reign as Intercontinental Champion was universally acclaimed for restoring prestige to the title, and he has continued that dominance as the World Heavyweight Champion on Raw. Rapper Travis Scott (L) is greeted by John Cena during his Undisputed WWE Championship match against Cody Rhodes during WrestleMania 41 at Allegiant Stadium on April 20, 2025 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Photo byJohn Cena, conversely, is in the midst of a shocking heel run on SmackDown. After winning his record-breaking 17th world title at WrestleMania 41, he has become an arrogant, manipulative villain for the first time in two decades. The dynamic of the respected "Ring General" against the dishonorable, all-time great would create a compelling story. A Classy Farewell GUNTHER also had high praise for Cena's decision to dedicate a full year to a retirement tour. He acknowledged that with Cena's massive success in Hollywood, he doesn't need to be wrestling, which makes his commitment all the more respectable. More news: WWE Superstar Announces Retirement Match "He doesn't need to do it," GUNTHER stated. "He's financially got bigger fish to fry with his movies and he's a made man already... but he decided to invest a whole year into this. It's a very classy way for someone like him to go out and have this one year of giving back and do it one more time." Both champions are currently focused on their title defenses at SummerSlam this weekend. GUNTHER will defend his World Heavyweight Championship against CM Punk, while John Cena will defend his Undisputed WWE Championship against Cody Rhodes in a Street Fight.
