GUNTHER just made history againand this time, he did it by choking out Jey Uso in the main event of WWE RAW.
On June 9, 2025, WWE RAW went down at the PHX Arena in Phoenix, Arizona, and the World Heavyweight Championship was up for grabs. Jey Uso earned the title shot after making GUNTHER tap out at WrestleMania 41, but the Ring General didnt waste any time clawing his way back into the title picture. And this week, he got his revenge in brutal fashion.
The match closed the show, and Alicia Taylors intense ring introductions gave it a real main event feel. Jey walked in with taped ribs after Bronson Reeds attack at Money in the Bank, and GUNTHER zeroed in on the injury, ripping off the tape mid-match to continue the punishment.
The two brawled on the outside, where GUNTHER nailed a release German suplex on Jey Uso, sending him crashing hard to the mat. Both men made it back into the ring before the countout, and the assault didnt slow down from there. Inside the ropes, GUNTHER chopped Jey mercilessly while keeping the upper hand during a commercial break.
Uso showed heart, fighting back with a dive to the floor, a huge spear, and an Uso Splash for a close two-count. GUNTHER fired back with a powerbomb, then a spear of his own, each for a near fall. In the end, it came down to a sleeper hold war.
GUNTHER cinched it in. Jey tried to escape. Then he locked one in himself. But GUNTHER powered out, turned the tables, and put the hold back on until Jey Uso passed out cold.
Then Jey Uso passed out and GUNTHER won the title.
With that, GUNTHER reclaimed the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in a dramatic, physical showdown that left fans stunned.
Jey Uso may have lost the title, but he proved once again that he can hang with anyone in the main event. And GUNTHER just proved that no setback will keep him down for long.
