Price admitted he had struggled during the match and he celebrated with his trademark roar after sealing victory.
Then Gurney mocked his celebration, leading to the fiery coming together.
Price, 40, later cooled tensions between the pair with a funny message on social media.
He wrote: "Have to be careful these days I'm down to light cruiserweight."

The darts star, who has previously claimed he could beat Jake Paul in a boxing bout, has been on a weight loss journey in the past few months.
Price credits his weight loss with his return to the form at the oche, but the Welshman also believes he is now more emotionally intelligent, and that has played a big role too.
Asked if that played a role in his win over Gurney, Price said: "Definitely. If it was five, six, seven years ago, that game probably could have got away from me.
"I've learned to try and keep my emotions intact at key points. I did today. There were two or three legs where I felt like my head was going to blow off — but I just had to keep it in.

"I thought I was struggling throughout the game. But I came off and saw the stats and I averaged around 100, which is decent.
"I felt like I was pretty poor in patches and didn't play particularly well. There's a lot more in the tank."

'I just felt like I needed to keep myself composed. Sometimes I'm forcing not to let my emotions get the best of me, and sometimes that's what happens.
"I can let out the emotions, and then the next leg's not so good. So sometimes I try and control that — and I did in that game."

Luke Littler finishes with a flourish to reach World Matchplay semi-finals

Luke Littler produced an impressive 11-dart leg to seal a 16-14 victory over Andrew Gilding in their Betfred World Matchplay quarter-final. The world champion never went behind and produced a 103.91 average to set up a semi-final against Josh Rock at Blackpool. Littler had a five-leg advantage at one point in the contest, during which he produced 18 maximums. However, Gilding set up a tense finish – with a 160 finish the highlight of a three-leg streak by the former UK Open champion. Rock managed a 104.02 average in his 16-11 win over Gerwyn Price, the fourth quarter-final to be played at the Winter Gardens. Saturday's other best-of-33 leg semi-final sees James Wade face Jonny Clayton.
