Damian Priest has fired a warning to Finn Balor and Gunther ahead of Saturday Night’s Main Event.
At the show, Gunther was set to defend the World Heavyweight Championship against Finn Balor in a singles match. However, after attacking both men on Raw, Damian Priest was added to make the match a triple threat. Priest already attempted to take the title back from Gunther at Bad Blood, but was foiled by a run-in from Finn Balor and the Judgement Day.
After Raw, Damian Priest spoke with Cathy Kelley on Twitter about the upcoming match at Saturday Night’s Main Event. He called the Judgement Day “stupid” and revealed how pissed off he was at the whole situation.
He claimed Gunther could not beat him, despite losing to him twice, and vowed to walk out of Saturday’s show as the new World Heavyweight Champion.
“Cathy, The Judgement Day can try to take me out again and again and again, but clearly, they are too stupid to realize that by now they can’t get the job done.”
“So how am I feeling? I’m feeling pissed off. And that sucks for everybody in The Judgement Day, and that sucks if your name is Gunther. Gunther knows one-on-one he can’t beat me. He needs help. And Finn Balor? Well, he just likes getting beat up by me, so I’ll just continue to do that.”
“At Saturday Night’s Main Event, the Street King will rise. And Campeón is back.”
Damian Priest Shares The Best Advice The Undertaker Has Given Him
Damian Priest spoke with The Wrestling Classic and was asked what advice he was given by The Undertaker. He explained how it wasn’t just one piece of advice. Instead, constant criticism on how to do better that has made him a better wrestler.
“I guess if there’s one piece of advice he’s given me that stands out, it’s to be yourself and turn up the volume. We’ve all heard that in different ways, but hearing it from him firsthand means something else. When you’re out there, he says, ‘Where’s this guy? Where’s who you are?’ He’s always simplifying things about who I am, how to present myself, and what not to do. You don’t have to beg the crowd for acceptance. Just be yourself, and they’ll either follow or they won’t, but don’t beg for it.”
“He’s so good at articulating these things, and I’m very grateful to have the Undertaker giving me advice on how to carry myself, how to be a WWE Superstar, a leader, all of it. He’s really been good to me, and I’m forever grateful.”
