Controversial endings sees two winners declared in match to determine Gunther's WrestleMania challenger

On the latest edition of SmackDown, five of the biggest superstars in WWE collided in a Fatal 5-Way qualifying match for a shot at Gunther's Intercontinental Championship.

The competitors were Sheamus, Drew McIntyre, LA Knight, Karrion Kross, and Xavier Woods. A title match against The Ring General at WrestleMania 39 was on the line.

The Fatal 5-Way was the opening match of the WWE SmackDown this week. After the bell rang, McIntyre and Sheamus had a stare-down, but they were both attacked by Kross and Knight. The two heels formed a short-term alliance against the three babyfaces during the bout.

After LA went for the cover, The Doomwalker broke the pin and began hitting each other. Woods then hit Knight with a flying elbow and went for the cover, but everybody else broke it up just in time. IMPERIUM, including Gunther, then appeared on the entrance ramp to observe the bout.

McIntyre sent Knight across the ring with a belly-to-belly suplex and went for the Future Shock DDT, but the latter avoided it. Sheamus then hit Woods, Karrion Kross, and LA Knight with the Ten Beats of the Bodhran.

The Celtic Warrior caught Xavier with a big boot off the top rope, and The Scottish Warrior hit LA Knight with a Claymore. The two former WWE Champions pinned the two stars simultaneously to end the match. It's currently unclear who the winner of the match is and who Gunther's opponent will be.
