WWE is less than 70 days from WrestleMania 41. The World Heavyweight Championship contest has been confirmed, with Gunther defending against Jey Uso. Last night on RAW, the 2025 Men's Royal Rumble winner chose his champion and received a brutal beatdown. The Austrian star has now offered a troubling preview of what Jey can expect.
The Ring General and Main Event Jey will work their fourth televised singles match on The Grandest Stage of Them All in late April. The red brand stars have only had high-stakes bouts in the past with the World Heavyweight or Intercontinental Championship on the line or the King of the Ring semi-finals, and WrestleMania will be no different.
Gunther attacked Uso during his entrance last night on RAW in the opening segment. The Imperium leader then pulverized the younger Uso as officials rushed out. Jey struggled to recover but made the 'Mania match official. The champion rushed back to the ring, but The YEET Master dropped him and nailed a dive.

The Ring General posted a ringside photo of the attack on Instagram today, previewing how grueling the challenger's next ten weeks will be.
"10 Weeks of Hell #Gunther #RingGeneral #WWE," Gunther wrote with the photo below.
The first Gunther vs. Jey WWE TV match saw the Austrian star retain the Intercontinental Championship on RAW in February 2024. The Ring General then defeated Uso in the KOTR semi-finals on the red brand last May, then retained the World Heavyweight Championship at Saturday Night's Main Event on January 25.
