WWE Has Big Plans For Damian Priest’s Character

WWE has big plans for Damain Priest, who had a breakout year in 2024 with his cash-in of the Money in the Bank briefcase at WrestleMania 40 to beat Drew McIntyre for the World Heavyweight Title.

Priest defended the title several times before dropping it to GUNTHER at SummerSlam. Since then, Priest has been feuding with Judgment Day and Finn Balor.

During the latest episode of WrestleVotes Radio on SportsKeeda’s Backstage Pass Patreon, it was noted WWE plans to strengthen the Priest character.

“We’ll start with Damian Priest as we left off with him Monday Night Raw wise, we’re told that there are talks to strengthen the Damian Priest character in regards to merchandising and appearance. WWE has discussed priests paying homage to his Puerto Rican culture with him embracing the vejigante mask. Apologies if that’s not pronounced, right. However, that was the research that led to the pronunciation of the vejigante mask. If you recall, Priest has done this mask once before Wrestlemania 40 when he came out with Finn Balor for the tag team match. So we’re told WWE is strongly considering making this part of his character and really turning up his baby face persona.”
