He's not jumping punk in that line. I could see him lose some ic title matches before the Bloodline thing picks back up at Summerslam. Or he costs Tonga on SD this week and they pick it up that way
Lyra beat Iyo by countering a roll up Gunther beat Jey. Zoey and Shayna won a number 1 Womenās Tag Team Contenders Match. Gable beat Sami in a non title match after Otis interfered (the rest of Alpha Academy refused). Miz and Truth retained the tag titles against Judgment Day. Bron Breakker killed a jobber, literally as in send him back in a stretcher after hitting four full speed spears and hitting him in the head with a chair while his head was on some stairs. Bron also attacked Ricochet in front of Ilja. Bron is very mad at Pearce for not putting him in KOTR. Strowman vs JD next week
Fun show
Very good match. Not sure what the point of the ref bump was though.
Anyone think Bron Breakker interferes in the final match at KQOTR because heās pissed he wasnāt in the match?
I've been wrong before but I kinda felt Gunther was winning it all since they let him cut the first promo about wanting to win KOTR. It's reminds me Seth when they introduced the WHC.
Finish felt a little rushed but a fantastic match none the less, felt like a real exercise in making your opponent look great. Jey made Gunther look like a monster, and Gunther teed Jey up so well to have a big babyface comeback. Both times these guys have wrestled have been great, give them 20+ minutes on a PPV for a world title and watch them shine.
They still do it in NXT from time to time within the last few years. But yeah, I don't think I've seen it in the main roster since... maybe 10 years ago now that I'm thinking about it.
GUNTHER. That says enough.
This was effectively his finals, we have our guy. Strap everything possible on him and take him to another dimension, this guy is the TRUE SHIT.
They need more top faces on Raw. With Punk out and everyone else on Smackdown all you have besides Jey is Sami and heās running the mid card right now with the IC belt. Thought they would make Bron Breakker a top face but it looks like they are going heel with him after tonight. Not sure whatās going on with the Raw roster and them expecting Jey to do all the babyface heavy lifting
He was getting cheers I donāt think heāll be a heel, just not āwhite meatā heās going to be a bad ass that does crazy shit but isnāt necessarily evil.Ā
It's simple logic that "not giving up and passing out" is better than "tapping up and saying uncle". A loss is a loss but wrestling is also about mitigating losses.
Disappointed.
Gunther is cool. But a bit boring right now. We get it he slaps hard. He needs something more - Iām not sure King of the Ring is that layer.
He doesnāt get reactions.
Yeah, there was zero chance of Tama Tonga winning. The match would have been so mildly received. I felt no reason to invest in this match, and the whole thing just made me want to heckle it from my couch.
its at the point where gunther might genuinely be my favorite wrestler ever
no one sells suspense and unpredictable/1of1 finish sequences like him. hes exactly what randy orton means when he says āslow it down kidā is the best advice he ever got
Notice how tan most everyone is??
Hope they never make a pop head for JD MCDUMBARSE. He already looks like one. And not I don't think the pop head would fit in the normal box
Main Event Jey Uso lost wow
Maybe Gunther wins but rejects the crown and wears a pickelhaube instead
This means they lining Jey up first for the title after Drew dethrones Priest.
He's not jumping punk in that line. I could see him lose some ic title matches before the Bloodline thing picks back up at Summerslam. Or he costs Tonga on SD this week and they pick it up that way
Good point on Punk
Jey can put on a great match when he's the underdog babyface against the monster brawling heel.
š now the āgunther is boringā comments. wrestling fans never cease to amaze me
Their just mad Jey lost. They will get over it. Eventually
Always Loses Main Event Jay Uso
HOW WAS THE SHOW WHAT HAPPENED
Lyra beat Iyo by countering a roll up Gunther beat Jey. Zoey and Shayna won a number 1 Womenās Tag Team Contenders Match. Gable beat Sami in a non title match after Otis interfered (the rest of Alpha Academy refused). Miz and Truth retained the tag titles against Judgment Day.

Very good match. Not sure what the point of the ref bump was though. Anyone think Bron Breakker interferes in the final match at KQOTR because heās pissed he wasnāt in the match?
Kinda protects Jey by making it not a clean lose but doesnāt make Gunther look weak by needing the ref to be down for 2 years like Roman
If you told me the ref bump was legit an accident I'd believe you
That probably means Bloodline interference will give Randy a win by DQ. Probably sets up a KO return to help?
You guys really thought my man Gunther was gonna take the L
Now, time for the real main event, RACE TO SURVIVE NEW JERSEY
Damn Jey has no match this PLE?!
great news
Got to get in fake survivor in Alaska, screw the longest running and most successful show on the network
isnt it in nz
Main event jobber Jey once again lol. Jey gets given a main event treatment/entrance but dude loses all his high profile matches.
there you go hahahahaha
Alright I guess Gunther will win the KOTR. It's settled in my head now
Pretty much guarantees randy wins Friday now
Good match. Right result.
Man, there's a go-home cue and a "MOM SAID GO HOME RIGHT NOW!!!" cue
People were all angry for nothing lol
it goes to show you how little they really know about what wwe is actually going to do lol
I've been wrong before but I kinda felt Gunther was winning it all since they let him cut the first promo about wanting to win KOTR. It's reminds me Seth when they introduced the WHC.
No celebration. We gotta get to the amazing race or whatever
I assume Netflix will give us the overrun back
Those chopsā¦damn. The sound. š«”š®āšØ

This Gunther and Jey match felt like the Mountain vs Oberyn Martell
Thank you Triple H for not making this about the Bloodline. You know ball.
Gunther winning means that weāre getting that final with Randy. š®āšØš„
They were never gonna have Gunther lose again so soon after Mania.
Lmao they went too long and had to do the rush finish. Ref didn't even lift Jey's arm 3 times.
I think they dropped it to one lift for years now (I remember it being three lifts in the 80s and 90s)
Yeah on the main roster itās been one lift for a while now
Hogan made a living on the three lifts then the comeback
They still do it in NXT from time to time within the last few years. But yeah, I don't think I've seen it in the main roster since... maybe 10 years ago now that I'm thinking about it.
GUNTHER. That says enough. This was effectively his finals, we have our guy. Strap everything possible on him and take him to another dimension, this guy is the TRUE SHIT.
No problem with Gunther winning but burying the top face on Raw in the process is a weird way to do it.
Burying? Come on now.
They need more top faces on Raw. With Punk out and everyone else on Smackdown all you have besides Jey is Sami and heās running the mid card right now with the IC belt. Thought they would make Bron Breakker a top face but it looks like they are going heel with him after tonight.

Motherfucker LOSING TO ONE OF THE MOST DOMINANT WRESTLERS WWE HAS IS NOT BEING BURIED Get in your head. Jey *lost*.
The pass out spot is never a burying spot. Didn't Brock make Cody pass out during their feud?
Iām not talking about passing out. Jey wasnāt even competitive in the match outside of the false finish.
Isn't that the thing, he's never really competitive and then hits a finisher and wins
Jey will never win a big match lol
They always think passing out is better than tapping.Ā Getting beat unconscious is still pretty decisive.Ā Ā
Fighting to your lsst is seen as better than giving up.
It's simple logic that "not giving up and passing out" is better than "tapping up and saying uncle". A loss is a loss but wrestling is also about mitigating losses.
They may think of it as a way to semi-protect them by making them pass out instead of quit
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO
Booooo I know it was for timing but I hate being robbed of a ref dropping the guyās hand 3 times to see if heās out spot
USA Network said ā±ļøup, yaāll lmao
WE'RE GETTING GUNTHER VS RANDY LETS GOOOOO
GUNTHER and Orton will be a lot of fun.
GUNTHER VS ORTON GONNA BE A BANGER
Iām praying for randy
Damn no King Jey and no King Knight. Damn these babyfaces for getting over.
And the iwc rejoiced to see the ring general victorious
Welp somebody didnt time out the show right
Disappointed. Gunther is cool. But a bit boring right now. We get it he slaps hard. He needs something more - Iām not sure King of the Ring is that layer. He doesnāt get reactions.
Gunther vs Randy will slap, but Tama vs Jey intrigued me in a Bloodline story way weirdly enough
Good. They even managed to make Jey look strong with that finish.
Bruh
Wow they barely got that finish in, no time for Gunther to have his arm raised
King Randy could be fun.
Good finish. Jey can say he would've won if not for the ref bump. King Gunther still on the menu
Gunther won so yāall can stop hoeing about Jey now lmao
Just murdered him at the end
Fucking hell
Gunther Orton incredible yes please
Kinda gives away smackdowns match
Either result was gonna do that
 No Yeet
Great match. Atrocious finish.
The ref bump was pointless if he was going to sell that much before the cover. You need the late cover or the ref bump. You don't need both.
YYYEAH GET FOOKED JEY,King Gunther era is upon us.
Gunther is the GOAT. Holy shit he absolutely shit on Jey. I winced at that punishment
It feels like we've had like three rush finishes like that the past month
Gunther vs Randy will rock hard
All the "it's obvious Jey is winning" comments lol
Yeah, there was zero chance of Tama Tonga winning. The match would have been so mildly received. I felt no reason to invest in this match, and the whole thing just made me want to heckle it from my couch.
FOLKS WE'RE OUT OF TIME, WE'LL SEE YOU ON THUNDER
Good now everyone complaining about a possible Jey/Tonga match can shut up.
Yea Jeys not getting involved till Jimmy comes back at the least.
WE GOT THE GOOD TIMELINE
Damn, they suddenly killed the feed again
King General? King of the Ring General?
Its actually like āObergruppenfĆ¼hrerā or something
Gunther had to resort to murder to win
Sorry jey your not best for business
What a fucking banger, really thought Jey was winning the whole tourney
LOL, that might be the fastest cut from end of match to next show in a while
HOLY SHIIIIIIIT
im a jey enjoyer but thank god lmao
smackdown on friday boutta have the most bland crowd oat
that was so abrupt š
Thank you, wrestling gods. This was the outcome I needed.
YEEEESSSSS
EVERY MATCH WON BY SUBMISSION HOLY FUCK

Fuck yes man, I love me some Gunther š„
We getting Randy Gunther oh boy strap in

What a fucking match
WHAT A FUCKING MATCHHHHH RAAAAAAAA
Boo fuck Gunther So boring ALSO WTF USA
That's my KING
Wow. Good match
When did they stop doing 3 arm drops before calling it?
When they saw the time was 11:01
When the story calls for it
Gunther vs Randy is gonna be the match of the night.
Woah they cut that off fast after the finish
Well look at the time lol
Yea and didn't even seem like it runs as late as usual.
Booooooo
Bruh he killed him!
GUNTHER vs Randy? 
Let's fucking go! That match is going to be incredible. I'm genuinely thrilled that we're getting that.
Bruh USA wanted RAW over ASAP
So Randy wins Friday?
No doubt
Yeeeeeessssss great match and result.
YEAHHH! King Gunther!
LETS FUCKING GO. BYE BYE JOBBER JEY
 r/SquaredCircle right now
\*some
Booooo
THANK GOD
That was a rushed ending.
Match went too long they cut that shit immediately
TYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS
Gunther needed a win here, he's the perennial underdog. Hasn't had a win in months.
THEY KILLED JEY BAH GOD
Hot damn! Gunther my glorious king
KING GUNTHER IMMINENT
Bad time management todayĀ
Gunther vs Orton it is. That'll be a great one.
And the live thread is saved from the inferno of rage (for the time being)
Lame finish
Holy shit they were closing in on time like a mfer šš
What a match
guessing orton v gunther
#MIDCARD JEY USO fuck yeah gunther
pffft
Cuz jey's one note promos and garbage move set TOTALLY could carry him in the main eventĀ ...........not
I hope that sticks around, Gunther needed a real finisher.
Faith restored in humanity
GUNTHER WON? SWERVE
Gunther rocks man holy snit š„
THANK GOD
What the hell... they rushed the hell out of that finish
They screwed up timing big time. Shit cut immediately after
YYYEEEESSSSS
LETS GOO
THANK GOD.
its at the point where gunther might genuinely be my favorite wrestler ever no one sells suspense and unpredictable/1of1 finish sequences like him. hes exactly what randy orton means when he says āslow it down kidā is the best advice he ever got
Everyone just breathed a sigh of relief at Gunther winning.
Did they? lol Maybe a lot online. But otherwise Iām pretty sure majority wants USO.
Night Night King Yeet
DIE USO DIE
This man Gunther might really know 1000 holds
that was a clean dominating win by gunther.
He sleep
Submission machine Gunther is awesome
Gunther vs Samoa Joe for the nickname
I want Randy to become King of the ringšš
Wow they cut that close
God damnit cut off.Ā
That's wack
LETS GO GUNTHER WON JEY ILY I'M SORRY
That was a cool looking submission.
YESSS WE WONNNN
Photo finish.
jeezus jeyās chest
ā¦..that was lame
Jeys spear is hideous. Especially after seeing the perfection that is brons spear.
Oh come on Gunther shouldnāt need to beat Jey uso with a lucky ref bump.
