Bash in Berlin takes place on Saturday night.
WWE will take its overseas PLE tour to Germany this weekend for Bash in Berlin, the first major event to take place in the country. 

One of the major matches on the card sees WWE World Heavyweight champion Gunter put his title on the line against Randy Orton, with Orton looking for his 15th world title win. 

Speaking ahead of the clash during the Bash in Berlin kick-off show, 'The Viper' reiterated his desire to be world champion once again, but also revealed he's signed a new long-term deal to stay with WWE. 

He said: "Already I'm in amazing company with Flair, Cena, and then I'm tied at 14 world titles with Triple H. So I'm in very good company.

"I would almost say that after I was given my second chance at in-ring competition, that I was satisfied. But then we had the King of the Ring. Then the finish happened at King of the Ring where my shoulders weren't all the way down and I got an opportunity - an opportunity to face GUNTHER at Bash In Berlin for the world title.

"And I realized, I just signed a five-year extension to my contract. I've got some time left to do this, I feel better than I've felt in over a decade, I want that title, and I want to be a 15-time world champion and then a 16-time world champion, and even a 17-time world champion, and set yet another record here in the WWE."
