dou bash in Berlin results grades and Analysis Thun Cody rhods retain Ria Ripley Damien priest win WWE's first premium live event in Germany featured five matches with three championships at stake WWE's bash in Berlin was the company's first ever premium live event to take place in Germany the event continued a string of successful WBA Ventures on foreign soil in 2024 being hailed by the company as the highest grossing arena show ever it was a strong card that featured three Championship matches and paid off two of the more enthralling WWE story lines this year asterisk the World Heavyweight Championship an absolutely amazing match to open the show roads and Owens combined excellent in ring action with impeccable story retelling we were able to see just how serious Owens was taking this opportunity thanks to his perfectly timed counters of Road's signature moves and we saw a viciousness from the former Champion that has seemingly been missing recently ATI knee injury was the main factor in the finish here with Owens refusing to attack rh's weak point during the match ultimately costing him the Undisputed we key championship there were subtle hints after the match that Owens might be on his way toward a heel turn and we again saw a less than dominant title defense from roads there's a chance we see this match again very soon possibly as a main event on the USA Network's tiet episode of SmackDown in a couple of weeks Che cargel and Bianca belir defeat isodon and Alpa fire in 124 to win the WWE women's t Team Championship asterisk analysis Carill and Belair are undoubtedly the bigger Stars here and were never pinned to lose the titles initially so the outcome here makes sense belir has been among the best talents on the roster over the past several years and Cargill is being built into an Unstoppable Force so I still believe their future is brighter as singles competitors than in a tag team hopefully there's a meaningful Feud for them moving forward perhaps against the faction of Zoe Stark Sonia Deville and Shaina Bassler the rules of the match were a bit convoluted with Michael Cole having to explain the lights on the turnbuckles repeatedly otherwise the animosity of this Feud was manifested in the physical nature of the match and we were able to see CM pun pick up his first win in WWE in more than a decade from here we are certainly going to see a Trilogy match between the two potentially at bad blood or even Survivor Series the winner of which likely Falls in line behind Damien priest and Seth Rollins for a shot at Gunther's World Heavyweight Championship this match played out perfectly with the physically imposing pair of priest and Ripley consistently having the upper hand early naturally the heel team of Morgan and Mysterio used underhanded tactics to gain an advantage and the Judgment Day got involved but ultimately the right pair won with this business finished priest can challenge Gunther and Ripley can challenge Morgan for their respective championships in SummerSlam rematches Beyond Mysterio nuclear heat his in ring skill is really very strong and he remains one of the somewhat underrated talents on the WWE a roster unfortunately this match did not reach the same Heights that their confrontation in the King of the Ring final did the crowd was red hot for the duration even with their relatively plotting Pace there was excellent ring psychology on display with Gunther focusing on Orton's neck and Orton focusing on Gunther's arm and the physicality was certainly there with moments like Orton's superplex and Gunther's power bombs unlike their King of the Ring final match Orton lost clean here and the two men shook hands after the match so this is likely the last we see of these two squaring off for a long time Gunther has no shortage of Challengers for his championship and Orton is a draw no matter who he is lined up across
