  • Titus yelling call the police had me in tears. šŸ¤£ It's like a wrestling meme now.
  • Imagine if Cesaro was still in the company. Heā€™d have fit right into this match.
  • @LordRaptor
    It's fascinating to see the journey that is Sheamus's career, how he started really green at the very top of the card, reinvented himself which resulted in even more revolt by fans, then reinvented himself again and has become one of the most over acts in the company the last few years, sitting comfortably in the mid-card but having a very defined personality that really connects with the fans.
  • I loved the finish of Gunther flying in with a splash to break up the pin then quickly delivering two big powerbombs to retain the title.
  • @gipsydanger7
    This triple threat match was a real manā€™s match. Grown men going after each other, making each other feel the blows and getting the fans involved. Awesome.
  • Titus yelling This could be IT! THIS COULD BE IT!!! Was gold šŸŖ™
  • @TheLuw1997
    Gunther is the best wrestler in the world in my eyes. It doesn't matter who he's booked with or what the feud is, he finds a way to steal the show & he does it without crazy spots or gimmicks. Just good, smart, hard hitting wrestling.
  • ā€œCall the policeā€ had me hollering, loved this match felt like a 5 minute match i truly believe Gunther is the best wrestler in the world and this year itā€™ll be showcased well
  • @koberino4872
    Hard hitting match, all 3 guys were over with the crowd, fkn crazy! Never seen guys lay their ish in that hard, while at the same time having a great match. One of the best triple threat matches Iā€™ve ever seen
  • @nbrider7235
    When Gunther drew blood on Sheamus' chest with the first slap of the match I knew this was going to be a good jight. My favorite match of Night 2.
  • Sheamus has been one of the best wrestlers of the last two decades. He's been consistent for so long and is FINALLY receiving his flowers
  • Match of the weekend. Guntherā€™s work speaks for itself and you can no longer doubt Drew or Sheamus.
  • @willkenshin
    This match was insanely good. Straight wrestling no goofy shxt. I think Gunther disappearing and popping up at the end was just so you can get that Sheamus vs Drew for a bit instead of getting inference from Gunther. At the start of the match, Gunther signaled for them to fight each other while he stand aside but we saw that didnā€™t happen. They got plenty of time to do everything they needed and this was clearly one of the best triple threats Iā€™ve ever seen
  • @Ted_Bell
    Huge Gunther fan! I'm glad Gunther retained. If Cody won the belt I thought Gunther should have been the one to take it from him eventually. But that's out for now.
  • @sbz88
    That match was incredible. Gunther is gonna be the greatest Intercontinental champion ever.
  • If I were in a real threeway match, i'd disappear and let the two opponents wear each other out.
  • @NYMetsNo1
    Towards the end of the match, you realized that Gunther was nowhere to be found, and pretty much knew the finish before it happened.
