Moreover, this update fuels the reports of Punk going up against Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship at the event. Besides, this has been a dream match for many fans, making it an appropriate bout to headline a show like Survivor Series. In fact, it would also allow WWE to capitalize on the red-hot momentum of both stars in the company.

Furthermore, WWE has already laid the foundation for a feud between Gunther and Punk. At Bash in Berlin, the latter called out The Ring General, making it known that he is coming after him. That being said, Survivor Series might become an important PLE for The Straight Edge Superstar, who is on a mission to become a six-time World Champion.

On the Busted Open Radio, Ray said that he liked the way Punk was limping throughout his appearance on Raw. He said that it made the wreckage at Bad Blood look legit. The legend added that it is something that the upcoming talent needs to learn from the veteran, and that is to sell the story as much as possible.

I loved the limp. I loved the Band-Aids on the face. I loved the grabbing of the ribs. It tells me that the match is legitimate. Young wrestlers take note. Sell, sell, sell, and when you’re done selling, sell some more. And that’s not from Uncle Bully, that’s from Uncle Dusty [Rhodes]. Uncle Bully just learned it.

Moreover, he even claimed that the promo by The Straight Edge Superstar on Raw might be the reason this story would live on for generations. In addition to that, the 53-year-old praised both Punk and McIntyre for putting their bodies on the line and redefining professional wrestling.
