"Disgrace" - Gunther reacts to huge WWE Extreme Rules match

WWE Intercontinental Champion Gunther has taken to social media to give his thoughts on last night's Six-Man Donnybrook Match.

The Brawling Brutes took on Imperium to kick off this year's edition of WWE Extreme Rules under the Donnybrook stipulation. The team of Sheamus, Butch, and Ridge Holland defeated Gunther, Kaiser, and Giovanni Vinci, avenging The Celtic Warrior's controversial loss on Friday's SmackDown.

The Ring General has now taken to social media to react to his team's shocking defeat. He shared an image of himself standing among the beer barrels surrounding the ring. The angry-looking Austrian star is also seen hurling a barstool in the snap. Meanwhile, the caption noted that the match was a 'disgrace.'

"DISGRACE," wrote Gunther.

On the most recent edition of Friday Night SmackDown, the Imperium leader defeated Sheamus and retained his Intercontinental Championship under dubious circumstances. Though The Ring General appeared to have tapped out to the Celtic Warrior, it did not count as he only tapped twice.

With the controversy surrounding Sheamus' last Intercontinental Championship shot and the mayhem of the Donnybrook Match, the saga of The Brawling Brutes and Imperium is far from done.
