Gunther vs. Damian Priest World Heavyweight title match added to WWE Survivor Series
The World Heavyweight title match for Survivor Series is official.
It was confirmed on Monday’s Raw that Damian Priest will be challenging Gunther for the title on November 30 in Vancouver. This follows a confrontation between the two that took place on Monday night after Priest won a four-way match last week to become the new number-one contender.
During their face-to-face, Priest told Gunther that although at first he wasn’t sure if he could beat Gunther, he now knows that if it wasn’t for Finn Balor turning on him, he would have retained the title at SummerSlam. He told Gunther that his vibe as a killer has faded, and dared him to take a swing. Ludwig Kaiser came out and called Priest street trash, causing Priest to lay him out. Gunther acted like he was going to retaliate, but instead backed off when Priest turned around to face him. Priest would later go on to defeat Kaiser in a singles match.
The lineup to this point for WWE Survivor Series WarGames set for Saturday, November 30 in Vancouver:
- WarGames match: OG Bloodline (Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso & Sami Zayn) & TBA vs. The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa) & TBA
- World Heavyweight title: Gunther defends against Damian Priest
