Damian Priest has been climbing up more and more as a mainstay on WWE TV as of late. It’s a shame that it could all come to a screeching halt due to this news that is just now coming out on Priest. Bobby Lashley ‘Set To Lose’ WWE Title.
Damian Priest and Bad Bunny teamed up at WrestleMania to take on The Miz and John Morrison. That tag team match drew a lot of new eyes because of Bad Bunny’s participation. It was also a make or break situation for Priest as an NXT newcomer…
Sporting News Australia recently spoke to Priest about his imprint that was left on this year’s showing of WrestleMania. He was told by “a lot of people” that if his partnership with Bad Bunny didn’t do well, then he was done for.
Priest said: “A lot of people were honest with me and they told me, ‘Listen, you can’t blow this because if you do, you’re done.’ All I said was you’re giving me the opportunity, I’m going to do everything to my abilities to knock this out of the park. I knew I had put in the work, so give me the opportunity and I will do my end. It goes both ways, and I think we both delivered so we brought our audience a product worthy of them being entertained and being happy to watch.”
That WrestleMania moment ended up making a big splash. Bad Bunny and Damian Priest were featured in headlines everywhere. It’s a good thing that the situation worked out for the best.
