Gunther makes his way to the ring.

Michael Cole mentions that the next two weeks of Raw will air on Syfy, due to the Olympics.

Gunther says he knows but then he stops speaking.  He says he wants to explain himself.  He says he took some time to reflect on what he said to Damian Priest last week and he says he agrees.  Gunther says let's skip it and he says he meant everything he said last week.  Everyone in this building is a bum.  What is at stake is what is clearest and dearest to him.  The reputation, prestige, and honor of this great sport.  The World Championship.  Why did they send him out first and not Priest?

Everyone knows that Priest does not live up to it.  That cute little sob story about fighting from the streets does not cover up that Priest is a pretender and a wannabe.  There is a saying where he comes from.  Show me your friends and I show you who you are.  He knows Priest's friends, THE Judgment Day.  Today, they will be judged by him.  You are all street trash.  He tells Priest he will make this offer one more time.  Take the weight off your shoulders and hand Gunther his championship.

He tells Priest he can go home to the trailer park.
