Gunther sends demeaning message to 46-year-old former WWE Champion ahead of WWE RAW
Gunther will be in a huge match on this week's episode of WWE RAW. He will be facing former WWE Champion Sheamus in a first-round match of the King of the Ring Tournament. The former Intercontinental Champion took to X (formerly Twitter) to send a demeaning message to The Celtic Warrior ahead of their bout.
The Ring General made his triumphant return to action on WWE RAW last week. He defeated Xavier Woods in a singles match after he was selected as the number one pick on Night Two of the 2024 WWE Draft. The former Intercontinental Champion's presence added star power to the red brand, as he had been MIA since WrestleMania XL after losing his Intercontinental Title to Sami Zayn.
The upcoming match between Gunther and Sheamus will be their third clash in a one-on-one setting. The WWE Universe seems excited about this match and looks forward to seeing The Ring General get back in form. The Imperium Leader took to his social media account to send a message to Sheamus.
"Forever riding on my coattail….." he wrote.
