World Heavyweight Championship Triple-Threat Match: Gunther(c) vs Finn Balor vs Damian Priest

The WWE Tag Team Champions--Finn Balor, wearing a black hood, and JD McDonagh--are out first. JD eventually heads to the back. Out next is his former the Judgment Day brother, Damian Priest. Speaking of hermanos, shoutout to mi hermano Bruce. The World Heavyweight Champion, Gunther, is out last and we get our bell at 8:55pm. All three men go at it, and Cole reminds us that Gunther can lose the title without being pinned (that's my pick, "hometown" boy wins it, just a guess though.) Priest takes an early upper hand after sending both competitors outside and we head to a break at 8:56pm. We return at 9:00pm and find Gunther firmly in control. Gunther stomps away at Priest then locks in a Boston Crab. Finn Balor breaks the hold with a chop to Gunther, that mostly seems to insult the Ring General.
