Damian Priest fired warnings to Gunther and Bronson Reed after his big win on Raw.
The former World Heavyweight Champion beat Dominik Mysterio, Seth Rollins and Sheamus in a four-way number one contender match. He earned a shot at Gunther’s World Heavyweight Championship, pinning former teammate Dominik Mysterio to pick up the victory.
During the bout, Bronson Reed ran in to attack the Archer of Infamy as well as the other wrestlers in the match. He mainly focused on Seth Rollins, who he put through a table and took him out of the match. However, he did hit Priest with a Death Valley Driver and Tsunami combination, something he is not likely to forget any time soon.
Damian Priest spoke with Cathy Kelley after Raw on Twitter and was asked about how it felt pinning Dominik Mysterio.
The former World Heavyweight Champion revealed that it felt “really good”, but is focusing on beating Gunther for the title he lost at Summerslam. Damian Priest also sent out a warning for Bronson Reed after his actions on Monday Night Raw.
“It does feel good. It feels really good getting the win over that little prick. But let’s focus on what’s important. I’m the number one contender. Gunther, one way or another, I’m becoming a champion again. And Bronson Reed, don’t for one second think I’m gonna let slide what happened out there. When I’m done and become the World Heavyweight Champion once again a receipt is coming for you.”

Damian Priest Names His Mount Rushmore Of ‘Big Boys’
Damian Priest has named his four favorite tall wrestlers in history.
He spoke with Buster on YouTube, and was asked to name his Mount Rushmore of “Tall Big Boys in Wrestling”.
“Number one is always easy. It’s The Undertaker. And again, this doesn’t mean that, you know, but I always get ridiculed anytime I put out a top list. Because it’s just an opinion, right? It’s just my opinion, my favorites. It has nothing to do with who was better, it’s just my favorite wrestlers. Undertaker’s there. Kevin Nash is there. Yeah, Scott Hall’s there. Scott Hall was a big boy, taller than me. Scott Hall was a giant really, he was 6’7” and jacked. So yeah, as someone who’s bigger than me, he’s gotta be on the list.
One more…this one’s always harder. I know everyone’s gonna say Andre, but Andre was before my time. You know what? I’m going to go with Sid, specifically that iteration of him as ‘Sycho Sid.’ I remember cheering for him at the Garden in ‘96 to win the title. His intensity was crazy. So yeah, I was a Psycho Sid guy until he came up against Undertaker, and that was different.”
