Gunther broke character to praise Jey Uso after his win on WWE RAW
Gunther broke character to speak about his win over Jey Uso on this week's WWE RAW. On RAW Recap, The Ring General claimed that the former champion stepped up to the challenge despite being viewed as the "underdog." He believed Jey met the expectations of many in the WWE Universe with his performance.
"[Did you feel like you were beating a World Heavyweight Champion?] Oh yeah, for sure. I've said it before; I've got to give it to Jey Uso. I think everybody that is heading into a match with me is considered the underdog, especially Jey before WrestleMania 41, because I've beaten him three-four times before that (...) And I've got to give it to him; I think he stepped up. I think he fulfilled a lot of hopes and expectations that people had in him."
Gunther and Jey have crossed paths on multiple occasions. They began feuding when the Austrian was the Intercontinental Champion. It remains to be seen what WWE has in store for the newly crowned world champion.
