Gunther opened Monday’s WWE RAW to address the audience as World Heavyweight champion for the first time. We quickly learned that his first challenger as the new champion will be WWE legend Randy Orton. The Viper made an unannounced appearance and it was immediately clear what he was there to do. Orton and Gunther went face to face and they will clash in just three weeks in Germany.
The 14-time World Champion told Gunther that he sees greatness in him and is eager to test himself against today’s top dog on WWE Raw:
“It think these fans deserve a modern-day Flair vs Steamboat.”
Randy Orton will challenge Gunther for the World Heavyweight championship at the first WWE Bash in Berlin on Saturday, August 31, 2024 from the Uber Arena in Berlin, Germany.
