It’s official: Damian Priest will get his long-awaited rematch against GUNTHER at Survivor Series: WarGames! Priest outlasted Seth Rollins, Sheamus, Dominik Mysterio, and even Bronson Reed’s chaotic interference to earn his shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, and now he’s locked in for a showdown with “The Ring General” himself.
On WWE Raw, Priest didn’t hold back, entering the ring to throw a few verbal jabs at the champ, pointing out that GUNTHER’s “vibe” has dimmed since being pinned by Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel. Not one to sit quietly, GUNTHER’s right-hand man Ludwig Kaiser stormed in, telling Priest he wasn’t worthy of facing the champ. The tension spiked as Priest decked Kaiser with a right hook and sent him flying out of the ring with a brutal clothesline.
After this explosive encounter, GUNTHER decided that tonight was not the night and backed away with Kaiser in tow. But with Survivor Series now set as the battleground, fans can expect no holds barred when Priest and GUNTHER meet once again. Will Priest redeem himself and reclaim the glory he once held, or will GUNTHER prove he’s the true undisputed powerhouse of WWE?
