Gunther left Jimmy and Jey Uso laid out in one of the most vicious post-match assaults in recent WWE memory—but the London crowd had something to say about it as he made his exit.

After RAW went off the air at London’s O2 Arena, The Dirt Sheets wrestling podcast posted off-air footage of the Intercontinental Champion walking backstage after his sickening attack. In the video, Gunther is seen storming through a side area near the crowd, trailed by WWE officials—and the fans weren’t letting him off easy.

Gunther was showered in loud boos as he made his way to the back, but one voice pierced through the chaos. A heckler leaned over the barricade and screamed, “WANKER!” with brutal emphasis, delivering a chant only the UK crowd could make feel like a finishing move.

This came after Gunther destroyed both Usos in front of a stunned London audience. Jimmy was left unconscious following a sleeper hold and body scissors combo, but the champ didn’t stop there. He zip-tied Jey to the ropes and forced him to watch as Jimmy was powerbombed, belt-whipped, and bloodied in a horrifying beatdown.

At one point, Gunther smeared Jimmy’s blood on his chest while taunting Jey with, “Can you handle the pressure?” Adam Pearce ran out screaming, “What the hell are you doing?” but it was too late—the damage was done.

Now, with the heat turned up to WrestleMania levels, Gunther’s villain arc may have just hit its peak. But it looks like London had the last word—at least for one night.
