Gunther wasn't even told to lose weight, dude just was smart enough to understand that if you want to work in WWE and get a push, you need to be in shape.
Keith didn't, I remember when he first started in NXT and they didn't really use him or push him because they told him to lose weight. He lost some weight, then he started getting a push.
On the main roster, he gained all the weight back and still tried to work like a Jr Heavyweight.
