Broadcast live from Berlin's Uber Arena, the German crowd - much like on last night's WWE SmackDown - will be electric as Gunther defends his WWE World Heavyweight Championship against the legendary Randy Orton. Of course, that isn't the only top prize on the line at Bash in Berlin, for Kevin Owens looks to dethrone his good friend Cody Rhodes as the WWE Undisputed Champion.
In other title shenanigans, Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn of The Holy Union defend their WWE Women's Tag Team Championships against the powerful duo of Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair. Back at WWE Clash at the Castle in June, it was Cargill and Belair losing those titles to Fyre and Dawn, and now the former champs look to regain the gold.
While there are no titles involved, the rivalry between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre continues to be one of the hottest things in WWE, with the two going to war in a Strap Match in Berlin. Added to that, there's also the small matter of Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest facing Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio. That itself is an extremely heated affair following Ripley and Priest's recent exit from The Judgment Day.

WWE Bash in Berlin 2024 card, predictions and storylines
Hot on the heels of a huge SummerSlam show, WWE last night headed to Berlin, Germany for SmackDown ahead of today's Bash in Berlin - the company's first-ever Premium Live Event to be held in Germany.
From the Uber Arena, Bash in Berlin is headlined by Gunther defending his World Heavyweight Championship against former 14-time World Champion Randy Orton. While he's Austrian, Germany is like a second home for Gunther, with him initially making a name for himself in the country for promotions such as wXw. Much like Ludwig Kaiser on SmackDown, while he's clearly a villainous heel on WWE programming, Gunther will receive a hero's welcome at Bash in Berlin.
In the other big World Title match, Cody Rhodes puts the WWE Undisputed Championship on the line against his long-time friend Kevin Owens. Despite Owens pointing out how his win-loss record doesn't deserve a title shot, the American Nightmare thought differently. Will the pair's friendship still be in place once Bash in Berlin comes to a close, and will Cody Rhodes still be the WWE Undisputed Champion?
Likely even more compelling than those two matches - at least in terms of a wider story - heated rivals CM Punk and Drew McIntyre go to war in a Strap Match. Given the intense nature of this rivalry so far, having a leather strap in play should produce some brutal, bloody results as CM Punk looks to bounce back from his SummerSlam loss to the Scottish Warrior.
As for "heated", Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest seek revenge as they face off against The Judgment Day's Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio. For those who may have missed it, SummerSlam saw Dirty Dom screw over Rhea to join forces with Liv Morgan, while Finn Balor later turned on Damian Priest and cost him the World Heavyweight Championship, leading to Ripley and Priest separating from The Judgment Day.
Rounding out the Bash in Berlin card, Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill are aiming to reclaim the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships from Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn - Fyre and Dawn having taken those titles from Belair and Cargill at Clash at the Castle earlier this summer.
- WWE Women's Tag Team Championship Match: The Unholy Union (Alba Fyre, Isla Dawn) (c) vs. Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill
- Strap Match: CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre
- Mixed Tag Team Match: The Terror Twins (Rhea Ripley, Damian Priest) vs. The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan, Dominik Mysterio)
- WWE Undisputed Championship Match: Cody Rhodes (c) vs. Kevin Owens
