Damian Priest emerged as the winner in the Money in the Bank ladder match last year, securing the highly sought-after contract in July. However, despite his persistent attempts, he has been unsuccessful in cashing in the contract. Recently, Priest faced backlash from fans on social media after he chose not to proceed with cashing in at the opportune moment. Now, the Judgment Day member has revealed the reason behind his decision.
In an interview, Damian Priest discussed his strategy regarding the Money in the Bank contract. He explained that he cannot cash in at the moment due to the current champion, Seth Rollins, being medically unavailable. Therefore, he has decided to wait until Rollins is cleared to compete before making his move.
Priest emphasized the importance of caution, stating that he would rather wait for the right opportunity instead of risking a failed cash-in. He expressed confidence in his eventual rise to a major title, whether it be on Raw or SmackDown, and highlighted WrestleMania as a potential turning point in his pursuit of championship glory.
Considering the current landscape and ongoing storylines in WWE, it seems that Damian Priest’s cash-in opportunity may not come to fruition until WrestleMania. With Seth Rollins out of action and uncertainty surrounding Roman Reigns’ appearances, the timing for a successful cash-in remains uncertain.
Damian Priest and his partner have proven themselves as formidable champions, holding the Undisputed Tag Team Titles for an impressive 115 days and counting. Throughout their reign, they have faced and overcome various challenges, establishing their dominance in the tag team division. However, the emergence of new threats poses perhaps their toughest challenge yet.
In a series of intense qualifying matches featuring multiple tag teams from both Raw and SmackDown, two teams emerged as the top contenders: #DIY and the team of Dunne and Bate. Their clash on a recent episode of SmackDown showcased the intensity and determination of both teams, thrilling the fans. Ultimately, Dunne secured the victory for his team with a brutal move called the Bitter End.
With this win, Dunne and Bate have earned the right to challenge Judgment Day for the Undisputed Tag Team Championships at the upcoming PLE event in Perth, Australia. As anticipation builds for this highly anticipated showdown, fans are eager to see if Balor and Priest can continue their dominant reign or if the newly reformed team will dethrone them and usher in a new era in the tag team division.
