“Sheamus Isn’t Gonna Get Away With It” – Damian Priest Sends a Strong Warning After WWE Raw

On Monday Night Raw: July 26th, 2021, Damian Priest defeated Sheamus to earn an opportunity to battle for the United States Championship title. He defeated the champion in a non-title match but WWE referred to the match as the contenders’ match.

The premise of Damian Priest and Sheamus’ feud is that the champion is a bully. And Priest will not let him continue his reign of bullying within WWE. Therefore, after defeating Sheamus on Monday Night Raw, Priest explained why he will not allow the champion to constantly attack others and why he intends to put a stop to this.

“I didn’t grow up with much, right? I am from the Bronx and growing up we had to literally scratch and crawl for anything we had. And there was always somebody trying to get whatever they could by doing things behind your back and I know that feeling. For me, I don’t let that fly. If I can do something about it, I am no hero. But, if I can do something about it, and teach somebody a lesson, and maybe getting something for myself being that he’s the United States Champion, then be it. Sheamus isn’t gonna get away with that, not around me.”

“Ever since I came to Monday Night aw, one goal, do what I have to do for my name to stand the test of time, for it to live forever. And I feel this is the first good step. WrestleMania was awesome but now I need to establish something that I hold, that is something that I could brag on day after day. And I think winning a championship gets me there. So yeah, man, this is good times.”

“That crowd was electric. It was so good. It felt really good to finally have a match on Monday Night Raw in front of the WWE Universe, stocked, I love their energy! I vibe off of that. So for me, this was, man, I am on cloud nine.”

Only time will tell if Damian Priest will become the new United States Champion!
