Gunther had a match on WWE RAW

Earlier this month, Gunther disrespected Jey Uso following his WWE Royal Rumble 2025 win. Later, The Ring General blindsided Main Event Jey, which led to him choosing to fight the 37-year-old for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 41.

Regardless of Gunther's wishes, The Ring General has a date with Jey Uso in Las Vegas. However, he promised to make Main Event Jey's life a living nightmare before the event. On the latest edition of WWE RAW, the champion crossed paths with the Alpha Babes, particularly Akira Tozawa. He then demanded to meet the Alpha Academy member in the ring.

During the segment, the World Heavyweight Champion insulted Akira Tozawa for his actions and alliance on Monday Night RAW. This led to a one-on-one match, which The Ring General won.

After the match, Gunther attacked Tozawa and Otis as a helpless Maxxin Dupri watched, only for Jey Uso to show up and save the day.
