Damian Priest on Judgment Day, switching his finisher.
Added 2022-08-26 02:11:45 +0000 UTCFightful spoke to Damian Priest for a new interview.
Priest told us that he was happy that the company showed so much trust in him when he made the move to the main roster. He was also thrilled to join Judgment Day, because when he was growing up, it was a golden era of wrestling stables. Shortly before the debut, he would hear names being pitched and mentioned as possible being added to the group. Considering Rhea Ripley is a close friend, he was glad to have her involved. He called Finn Balor one of his "all-time favorites." The chemistry with Balor has worked out great.
Priest claims that briefly switching away from Reckoning as a finisher wasn't because of Cody Rhodes coming in, but did indicate that's why he no longer uses it. Priest said he wanted to establish a bunch of different finishers that he could use and get different reactions for.
The full interview will be out Friday

I like that he goes with the flow and utilizes different moves; he's a bigger guy so it's cool (at least to me) that he can best you down but also fly at the same time
