Former World Heavyweight Champion Gunther’s suspension is over. In a video message shared by Raw GM Adam Pearce, it was noted that Gunther’s suspension was lifted in time for him to appear on tonight’s episode. Further to that, a face-to-face confrontation between Gunther and commentator Pat McAfee was announced and Pearce will moderate the exchange.
Gunther was suspended after losing his cool with WWE Raw commentator Michael Cole, but it was McAfee who stepped up to defend Cole but was subsequently beat up.
“I can confirm that the Ring General Gunther’s suspension as of this morning has been officially lifted,” Pearce said. “He will be here tonight in Omaha on Monday Night Raw as I will moderate a face-to-face. Pat McAfee and Gunther in the ring at the same time, and I can guarantee you we will not see a repeat of what happened two weeks ago.”
