Gunther sends one-word warning following WWE RAW
Gunther has delivered a one-word warning following this past Monday's edition of WWE RAW in Indianapolis. The promotion is currently on the road to Money in the Bank on July 6.
Damian Priest will be defending his World Heavyweight Championship against Seth Rollins at the premium live event. Gunther interrupted Rollins and Priest on Monday's episode of WWE RAW and warned that he will be taking the championship at SummerSlam. The leader of Imperium has already earned a title shot on August 3 by winning the King of the Ring Tournament last month.
The Ring General took to social media today to share a reminder that he will be walking out of SummerSlam as the new World Heavyweight Champion.
"Reminder!" he wrote.
Rollins and Priest also have a gentlemen's agreement in place for the match. If The Visionary loses, he can never challenge for the title again as long as Damian is the champion. If El Campeon loses, he will be forced to leave The Judgment Day.
WWE personality believes 38-year-old could win Money in the Bank and cash in on Gunther
Sam Roberts believes Jey Uso could win the Money in the Bank Ladder match and go on to cash in on Gunther following SummerSlam.
Jey Uso qualified for Money in the Bank last Monday night ahead of the Wyatt Sicks debut. The former Bloodline member hilariously noted after the show that he wanted nothing to do with the faction and they could have the fireflies back.
Speaking on his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts suggested Jey Uso could cash in on Gunther down the line due to their history against each other.
"We are seeing the rise of Damian Priest. Let Gunther ruin the rise of Damian Priest. And then coming off that, Gunther is the World [Heavyweight] Champion, Damian Priest can get victories over other people, Seth Rollins can get victories over other people, and if Jey Uso wins the Money in the Bank, within a year, Jey Uso is the guy who could beat Gunther because Gunther has beaten him twice, don't forget. Intercontinental Title and King of the Ring qualifiers," Sam Roberts said. [From 01:14:24 to 01:14:50]

Gunther held the Intercontinental Championship for 666 days before dropping it to Sami Zayn earlier this year at WrestleMania XL. Only time will tell if he can capture the World Heavyweight Championship at WWE SummerSlam in August.
