Transcript

00:00Damage control is going to go one-on-one with Sonya DeVitt.

00:05Adam Pearce making good decisions tonight.

00:09Rarity, but still awesome.

00:12Can't wait for next week on SyFy.

00:14Can't wait for this weekend. It all gets underway Friday.

00:17SummerSlam, of course, Damian Priest live at noon.

00:19Pat and I host the kickoff at 5 Eastern, then SmackDown, Sami Zayn.

00:22And then Saturday, of course, The Undertaker.

00:251 o'clock Eastern with his one dead man show.

00:28Pat and I part of Countdown to SummerSlam, and then SummerSlam, of course, at 7 Eastern,

00:32followed by the SummerSlam post-show.

00:34You gotta wonder if this man's gonna be on the post-show,

00:36if he's gonna win his first major championship here in WWE

00:40as he battles for the World Heavyweight title.

00:42And his opponent, representing The Judgment Game,

00:59from Bray County, Wicklow, Ireland,

01:01he is one half of the World Tag Team Champion,

01:06Finn Balor!

01:11So again, the question is, when we get to Monday Night Raw next week,

01:15in Baltimore, Maryland, who's gonna be the world champ?

01:18Will it be Damian Priest of Judgment Day,

01:20or will Gunther be the new world champion?

01:25You know, for Finn Balor, Pat, SummerSlam means a lot to this man.

01:29A number of years ago, he became the first-ever Universal Champion at SummerSlam

01:35before having to relinquish the title a day later because of injury.

01:40His words were to soften up Gunther before the matchup on Saturday.

01:46Obviously, he's the Tag Team Champion right now,

01:48alongside just dumb McDonough.

01:52J.D. McDonough.

01:53Yep, sorry, J.D. McDonough.

01:56But Finn Balor's been all around the world, he's been champion.

02:00And what's interesting about that, Pat, is that Gunther and Finn Balor

02:04have battled all around the world before they came to WWE,

02:09and independent promotions throughout Europe, overseas, Far East.

02:15But Balor and Gunther have never met one-on-one.

02:17This is the first time they've ever been in a one-on-one matchup

02:20at any point in their career, and it happens here tonight on Monday Night Raw.

02:23I speak for every wrestling fan on Earth.

02:25It is an honor to be here and to watch these two do their thing.

02:29Nice side headlock takedown by Finn Balor.

02:32Tries to do it again, but Gunther able to block this time around.

02:35The man who won the Intercontinental Championship

02:37and held the title for 666 days.

02:41Both of these men, NXT legends, obviously.

02:45Much like yourself.

02:47Thank you. You said it, not me.

02:50We're talking about world-class in front of our eyes.

02:54Gunther went for the chop.

02:55Finn ducked underneath it, delivers a chop of his own,

02:58and that just seemed to anger the ring general.

03:02Oh, goodness!

03:06And Gunther looking for a powerbomb, but Balor able to block.

03:10It's showing off a little bit of his power here with a backdrop.

03:13Gunther the roll through. There's the basement dropkick by Finn.

03:17Gunther spikes Finn Balor like a beach volleyball in front of the Eiffel Tower.

03:21And Balor with a kick right to the ribs.

03:24And now Finn Balor stomping away on Gunther.

03:27Eiffel Tower over 1,000 feet tall, created by a man named Berger, Eiffel.

03:34If you ever get into jeopardy...

03:38Oh, goodness! Boot to the face. Gunther is dominating.

03:46Take the fight to the king of the ring.

03:50Gunther winning that tournament, which culminated in Saudi Arabia at the end of May,

03:54by knocking off Sheamus, Kofi Kingston, Jey Uso, and Randy Orton.

04:00And a kick out by Balor.

04:03Virtual all-star team, Gunther knocked off to win the king of the ring.

04:09I appreciate the fact that you become the king, you get a shot at the title.

04:13Just like the queen, Nia Jax earned her opportunity at Baylor.

04:18WWE Women's Champion Saturday at SummerSlam.

04:22Boston Crabbe now locked in by Gunther.

04:26Center of the ring, Balor's got nowhere to go. Submission move here.

04:34Balor trying to drag himself to the bottom rope and force a play.

04:38Fingertip away, and he finally grabs it. Gunther's gonna have to break the hold.

04:41Phenomenal core strength from Finn Balor to be able to get to the lower rope there.

04:46I thought Gunther was about to snap him in half like an Auntie Anne's pretzel.

04:52Right to the back.

04:56Forearm shot to the back of the neck.

05:00Just a little wasted motion by Gunther. Everything he does has purpose.

05:05Punish the opponent, wear them down.

05:09Pretty much beat the will out of him like he's doing here.

05:14That chop was heard all the way in Minneapolis, Colt.

05:19Been waiting all night for that.

05:21And here, Gunther with Balor.

05:24Up on the top rope.

05:27Oh, Balor turned it around.

05:30Balor was able to shift his balance, and he landed heavily on Gunther.

05:35Now an opportunity for Balor.

05:39Watch this counter by Finn here, Pat.

05:41Body control, use of leverage, you name it.

05:45Gunther was going for a superplex, and Balor able to turn it around.

05:50Great, a splash out of nothing.

05:52Now Gunther misses wildly, flailing wildly as Balor unloads to the rights and lefts.

05:57And Finn Balor now, who'd love to knock off Gunther.

06:00And quell his momentum before the matchup with Damian Priest.

06:03On Saturday, cover by Balor.

06:06Hook to the leg, Gunther's got a kick at two.

06:10Finn Balor wants the Judgment Day to keep all of the titles that they have.

06:15Need Damian Priest to win.

06:18Feet down, going through a little bit, obviously that would help.

06:23Gunther slowly making his back to his feet.

06:26Remember, Balor, uh-oh, Gunther sidestep.

06:29And now sleeper hold knocked in on Balor.

06:33Gunther looking to wear Balor down.

06:35Balor with nowhere to go.

06:39Balor, nice reversal.

06:41Oh, what a chop!

06:44And again into the sleeper.

06:47Chest of Finn Balor's.

06:51Deep red from the chops.

06:53And now, speaking of deep, a rear naked choke under the Irish chin of Finn.

07:00Thought he was out there, like Patty Pimblitt had old buddy this weekend.

07:05Finn Balor turns things around with the DDT.

07:13Balor in the clothesline trying to drive Gunther back into the corner.

07:16Building some momentum.

07:17Oh, ran right into a clothesline again.

07:19Gunther crawls to the cover.

07:21Hooks the leg now on Balor and a kick out.

07:27What a match here.

07:29Can you imagine how physical the match is going to be Saturday?

07:32Those two big bruisers, Gunther and Priest going at it.

07:36World Heavyweight Championship on the line.

07:39Priest with a chip on his shoulder.

07:41Something to prove.

07:44Upset over the fact that Gunther called him and his Judgment Day brethren

07:48nothing but street trash.

07:52Gunther wants to return the prestige to the World Heavyweight title in his mind.

07:58Balor, the wily veteran, as tough as they come.

08:02Bringing the fight to Gunther now.

08:04Oh, Gunther with an uppercut.

08:07Now lifting Balor up, lands on his feet.

08:10Now Balor looking to use his quickness.

08:12Sling blade!

08:15We've seen this from Finn before.

08:19You think he's down, you think he's out.

08:22Sling blade!

08:24Sling blade!

08:26Oh, Gunther once again into the sleeper.

08:31Balor able to roll through, stomp to the chest.

08:35And Balor giving Gunther everything he can handle and move.

08:38A better Finn Balor with a double leg kick down and yet another stomp.

08:44Chest match here between Gunther and Finn.

08:47One upping each other.

08:49Enforcing each other.

08:51Finn's chest on one massive welt.

08:54The chops of Gunther in this matchup.

08:58Serious XM, that thing is busted open.

09:01That's Gunther wrestling.

09:03Driving Gunther into the corner.

09:05Gunther's in the drop zone.

09:06Balor realizes it.

09:07Balor's got an opportunity.

09:09Gunther's in trouble.

09:10Balor's going to climb up top.

09:13Finn Balor from the top rope.

09:15Oui, oui, bonjour.

09:18Gunther able to roll out of harm's way and again locks in a sleeper.

09:24Sleeper a few different times for Finn.

09:26At what point is Finn just going to have to tap out?

09:30Or maybe pass out.

09:32This is the deepest that Gunther's had it locked up.

09:36And Finn Balor starting to fade, or at least it looked like he was.

09:39Now he's trying to make it back to a vertical base.

09:41St. Paul is powering him back up.

09:43Gunther turns it around with a powerbomb.

09:45Stacks up Balor.

09:46Shoulders down.

09:47Balor kicks it too.

09:50Entire body weight of Gunther was on top of Finn.

09:53And now Gunther again.

09:56Overpowering Balor here.

10:05Balor's fading.

10:06Center of the ring.

10:07Nowhere to go.

10:08Official Chad Patton right there.

10:10Balor looking for one last rally perhaps.

10:19Balor trying to break the massive grip of Gunther.

10:24Gunther again just rag-dolling Balor.

10:30Both of these men have superb stamina, but at some point you're going to have to want...

10:36Yeah, it's out.

10:37Gunther's got it.

10:38Finally locked it in.

10:39Balor fading.

10:41And it's over.

10:42Gunther puts Balor away.

10:45Here is your winner, the 2024 King of the Ring,

10:51Gunningtonator, Gunther!

10:57And look at Gunther now once again locking in the...

11:00Not even a sleeper.

11:02They're going to make a joke now.

11:04Balor, who's barely moved, was just coming to when Gunther went back on the attack.

11:10Balor's consciousness made a decision for his body by just passing out and not being able to continue to fight.

11:18And that'll bring the world champ to the ring, Damian Priest.

11:23And here we go, Priest and Gunther brawling five nights away from SummerSlam.

11:30Damian's connected.

11:32Priest with the right hand. Gunther rolls out of the ring.

11:35And the brawl is underway again.

11:37These two men have been beating the hell out of each other in recent weeks.

11:41Disrespect has been through the roof.

11:46And our champion was sick of seeing Gunther do what he was doing to Finn Balor.

11:51Comes out here and just starts throwing bombs at Gunther.

11:54And now Gunther sent right over our announce table.

11:57By Damian Priest, the world champion now.

12:01Taking the fight to Gunther.

12:06SummerSlam has come early.

12:08Priest unloading.

12:10Priest the proud world champion.
