WWE’s World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest wrapped up his groundbreaking WrestleMania weekend with a significant move, reportedly signing a new contract, but not just with WWE.
After a mixed start at WrestleMania 40, Priest seized the title by cashing in his Money in the Bank contract on Drew McIntyre.
Following this triumph, he revealed he’s penned a fresh deal, not only with WWE but also with top agency Paradigm.
This full-service entertainment agency will now represent Priest across various platforms, including acting, literature, marketing, and more.
Priest’s first challenge as champion will come from Jey Uso, who earned the #1 contender spot after a Fatal Four-Way match victory on RAW.
The wrestler expressed gratitude to his family for their support during the monumental win.
He shared heartfelt moments with his loved ones at Lincoln Financial Field and celebrated with his Judgment Day stablemates backstage.
Looking ahead, there’s speculation about Priest defending his title against Uso at the upcoming Backlash France Premium Live Event.
Additionally, rumors suggest another Judgment Day title defense, with Rhea Ripley possibly facing Liv Morgan for the Women’s World Championship.
As Priest’s career expands beyond the ring, fans eagerly anticipate his next moves both inside and outside the WWE arena.
