From the opening bell, Balor asserted his dominance, showcasing his signature aerial maneuvers and relentless intensity. He repeatedly targeted GUNTHER’s injured left arm, but the champion’s size and power proved to be too much.

As the match reached its climax, Priest emerged from the crowd and attacked Balor, sending him crashing through the announce table. Ripley, who was at ringside as the captain of Team Bianca, ordered the assault to protect her stablemate, GUNTHER.

Despite Balor’s courageous effort, GUNTHER seized the opportunity to hit his signature powerbomb and secure the victory. After the match, GUNTHER stood tall in the ring, his title held high, while Balor was left to wonder what might have been.

“GUNTHER’s victory was a testament to his incredible resilience,” said former WWE Champion Bobby Lashley. “He was able to withstand Balor’s relentless attack and capitalize on Priest’s interference.”

The outcome of the match sets the stage for potential feuds between GUNTHER and Balor, as well as Priest and Balor. It also raises questions about Rhea Ripley’s motives and her role in the Judgment Day’s actions.

GUNTHER’s title retention at Survivor Series adds another chapter to his impressive reign as Intercontinental Champion. The interference from Damian Priest has injected a new layer of intrigue into the Raw roster, and the potential outcomes of these storylines will undoubtedly captivate WWE fans for months to come.
