“Holy F**K”: Damian Priest’s Incredible Cash in at WrestleMania XL on Drew McIntyre Leaves Fans in Shock

WrestleMania is often regarded as the ‘Grandest Stage of them all’. And this year, Damien Priest was able to stand tall at the start of the show. The first match of the night saw Drew McIntyre take on an injured and battered-up Seth Rollins.

Rollins and Cody Rhodes fought The Rock and Roman Reigns in the Night 1 main event of WrestleMania XL, only to lose in the end. After entering his World Title match in a bruised-up condition, McIntyre would take all the advantage he could, and leave Rollins withering in pain. However, what happened next would lead to a 9-year-old history repeating itself.

WrestleMania 31 saw Seth Rollins steal the ‘Heist of the century’ with his money in the bank cash-in. Similarly, this year, Priest would wait for the perfect moment before capitalizing. After winning the gold, Drew McIntyre would get in CM Punk’s face, before being attacked by the Second City Saint.

This attack would prompt Priest to enter the arena, and successfully cash in his briefcase. A wonderful moment for The Archer of Infamy, and his first World Title win, fans need to wait and see what this means for The Judgment Day, and Drew McIntyre.

The entire faction would come to lead Priest out of the arena with his World Title, and the internet would react in a similar way.

A much-deserved moment for former ‘Senor Money in the Bank’. At 41-years-old Priest broke a 50-year-old record, last held by Pedro Morales. After a successful cash-in, he became the second Puerto Rican heritage World Champion.

This win now leads to several branches of storylines coming up, and fans now need to wait and see what might unfold at the end of this year’s WrestleMania season.
