Seth Rollins CONFRONT Gunther & Attacked By CM Punk & LA Knight!

The June 30, 2025, episode of WWE Monday Night RAW, broadcast live from Pittsburgh’s PPG Paints Arena, delivered a chaotic opening segment that set the wrestling world abuzz. Fans were treated to a fiery confrontation involving World Heavyweight Champion Gunther, Mr. Money in the Bank Seth Rollins, CM Punk, and a returning LA Knight. The segment, which spiraled into an all-out brawl, has ignited speculation about new rivalries, potential title challenges, and the road to WWE’s upcoming premium live events, including Saturday Night’s Main Event on July 12 in Atlanta, Georgia.

The segment kicked off with Gunther addressing the WWE Universe, exuding his trademark confidence as he spoke about his upcoming World Heavyweight Championship defense against Goldberg at Saturday Night’s Main Event. The Ring General, known for his dominant reign and no-nonsense demeanor, mocked Goldberg’s storied career, asserting that the wrestling legend “never had it” and would fail to dethrone him. As the crowd chanted, questioning whether Goldberg still had the fire to compete, Gunther shifted gears, boldly asking who would dare challenge him next once he dispatched the WCW icon. The answer came swiftly as Seth Rollins’ music hit, and the self-proclaimed Visionary strutted to the ring, accompanied by Paul Heyman, who carried a newly customized Money in the Bank briefcase.

Rollins, the 2025 Men’s Money in the Bank winner, wasted no time making his intentions clear. He teased a potential cash-in on Gunther’s World Heavyweight Championship, referencing his recent antics at Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia. There, Rollins had interrupted the Undisputed WWE Championship match between John Cena and CM Punk, delivering a Curb Stomp to Punk to ensure the latter didn’t walk away with the title. On RAW, Rollins clarified that his goal wasn’t to cash in on Cena but to prevent Punk from becoming champion, a mission he vowed to continue “as long as I have breath in my body.” Gunther, quick to respond, jabbed at Rollins’ Logan Paul cash-in attempt, reminding him that he “went all the way to Saudi Arabia to achieve absolutely nothing.”

The verbal sparring took a physical turn when CM Punk’s music blared through the arena. The Voice of the Voiceless stormed the ring, eyes locked on Rollins, seeking revenge for the Night of Champions interference. A brief but intense brawl ensued, with Punk landing a flurry of punches before Rollins, ever the tactician, slipped out of the ring and fled through the crowd. Punk, climbing the ropes to taunt Rollins as a “coward,” was met with thunderous “CM Punk” chants from the Pittsburgh faithful. However, the drama escalated when Gunther, still in the ring, grabbed Punk’s arm, seemingly to calm the situation. Punk, in no mood for interference, shoved the World Heavyweight Champion to the mat, a shocking moment that left Gunther stunned and the crowd buzzing. Punk warned Gunther to “stay out of my way,” planting the seeds for a potential blockbuster feud.

As if the chaos wasn’t enough, the segment took another wild turn in the arena’s concourse area. Rollins, laughing and mocking Punk from the crowd, was blindsided by a returning LA Knight. The Megastar, who had been sidelined after an attack by Rollins’ allies, Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker, on a recent SmackDown, emerged with a bag of popcorn in hand before launching a vicious assault on Rollins. The two brawled through the concession stands, with Rollins throwing beer in Knight’s face and the pair trading blows near a bar area. The intense skirmish culminated in WWE announcing a grudge match between Rollins and LA Knight for Saturday Night’s Main Event, adding another marquee bout to an already stacked card headlined by Gunther vs. Goldberg.

Backstage, the drama continued as Punk and Knight crossed paths. Punk, still seething, told Knight to “get back in line” and wait his turn to settle scores with Rollins, to which Knight fired back, asserting he’d deal with Rollins at Saturday Night’s Main Event before addressing Punk. This tense exchange hinted at yet another potential rivalry, with fans speculating that Punk could interfere in the Rollins-Knight match, possibly to cost Rollins or even to spark a feud with Knight.

The fallout from this segment has set the stage for multiple storylines heading into SummerSlam and beyond. Punk’s aggression toward Gunther suggests a World Heavyweight Championship match could be on the horizon, especially if Gunther retains against Goldberg. Meanwhile, Rollins’ Money in the Bank briefcase keeps him a constant threat to both Gunther’s title and the Undisputed WWE Championship. LA Knight’s return adds another layer of unpredictability, with his popularity and brash attitude making him a fan favorite to upend Rollins’ plans. Social media posts on X captured the excitement, with fans buzzing about Punk shoving Gunther and Knight’s surprise attack on Rollins.

This chaotic RAW segment showcased WWE’s ability to weave intricate, interconnected storylines, delivering high-stakes drama and physicality. As Saturday Night’s Main Event approaches, the wrestling world is left wondering: Will Punk target Gunther’s title? Can Knight overcome Rollins? And what’s next for The Visionary’s cash-in plans? One thing is certain—WWE is firing on all cylinders, and the road to SummerSlam promises to be a wild ride.
