At the Nottingham live event, the World Heavyweight Champion teamed up with Solo Sikoa for the very first time in his career. The two top heels wrestled the dream team of CM Punk and Cody Rhodes.
The final moments of the match saw Gunther accidentally chopping Sikoa, and the latter wasn't happy one bit. He then hit a Samoan Spike on his unsuspecting tag team partner to a loud pop from the fans. Mere seconds later, the babyfaces picked up a win over the heels. Check out the footage of Solo's attack on Gunther below:

The Ring General is mere weeks away from taking on the ever-popular Jey Uso in a World Heavyweight Title match at WrestleMania 41. The buildup to the contest has been underwhelming, to say the least. Many fans believe Jey Uso isn't a main event level star and doesn't deserve to headline 'Mania when there are way bigger stars on the roster at the moment. Jey will look to win the top prize at The Show of Shows, but it certainly won't be an easy task.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
