Gunther Vs Randy Orton Set for WWE Bash at Berlin – Gunther’s first title defense as WWE World Heavyweight Champion has been set for WWE Bash at Berlin on August 31.
The challenger, Randy Orton, confronted Gunther on the August 5 episode of WWE Raw and reminded him of their controversial encounter in the King of the Ring tournament finals, where Orton’s shoulders were notably up during the finish. Orton’s call for a rematch was backed by his belief that fans deserved a match akin to the classic Ric Flair vs. Ricky Steamboat bouts. Orton challenged Gunther to prove he could deliver a match of that caliber.
Gunther, accepting the challenge, dismissed the idea that Orton’s claims or any doubts about his reign mattered. He vowed that his championship reign would mirror the historic 666-day reign he had with the WWE Intercontinental Title, asserting his place as greatness personified.
Gunther earned his title shot by defeating Orton in the King of the Ring finals, a match that saw controversy due to the position of Orton’s shoulders. Triple H later confirmed that the referee’s decision was final but hinted at a potential rematch, which has now been scheduled for Bash at Berlin.
