There’s no respite for Roman Reigns at the moment. At Money In The Bank, The Tribal Chief of The Bloodline was pinned after three years, as he suffered a gutting loss. While his own bloodline left no stone unturned to humiliate the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, they could soon be joined by a 40-year-old wrestler to inflict further pain.

Despite all his successes and a record setting run, Roman Reigns has been subjected to boos from fans due to his in-ring persona. Fans have often criticized him as selfish. Now fans have urged Damian Priest to take on Reigns and strip him off the belt. But before he can look to take on the vulnerable Bloodline leader, Priest has to sort out the infighting that has recently plagued his own stable, The Judgement Day.

Chance goes begging for Damian Priest

Damian Priest is one of the most threatening male stars in WWE at the moment. Well, he’s a threat as he currently possesses the coveted briefcase which he won at Money In The Bank on July 1. The contract-filled briefcase allows him to cash in on any championships and thus, the 40-year-old is a walking threat to his male peers.

Just hours after winning the men’s ladder match and taking the briefcase, Priest appeared with it at ringside during Finn Balor’s match with Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship. When Balor looked to take advantage of a situation, Priest appeared to cash in, distracting his own stable mate and later costing him the bout. This also led to a brief confrontation between Balor and Priest.

On the recent episode of RAW, Priest confronted Rollins and hinted at cashing in on his contract against the champion. He said it could happen at several PLEs, or even during the course of the episode. “Maybe after I’m done beating Shinsuke Nakamura, I go from being Senor Money In The Bank to El Campeón Mundial,” Priest told Rollins.

On the other hand, Rollins and The Judgement Day’s Dominik Mysterio squared off for the main event of the night. After going back and forth, Mysterio egged Priest, who was at the ringside, to cash in his contract. Just when he was about to do it, Balor made a surprise appearance and attacked his archrival.

While Rollins was able to escape with his belt intact, this led to another verbal altercation between the two Judgement Day members. Meanwhile, fans want the 40-year-old to go after Reigns instead.
