Damian Priest Off Television Due To Undisclosed Reasons

An update on Damian Priest.

Fightful Select reports Damian Priest has been off television due to undisclosed reasons and could be back as early as next week if there are creative plans for him.

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer reported Damian Priest hasn’t been on television due to a back injury and Priest reportedly went into WrestleMania 37 with a bad back, but still managed to team with Bad Bunny against The Miz & John Morrison. Reports of a back injury were denied to Fightful Select.

Priest took on The Miz in a zombie lumberjack match at WrestleMania Backlash and battled Morrison the following night on Raw in a lumberjack match. He hasn’t wrestled since the May 17 episode of WWE Raw.

Priest was called up to the main roster at WWE Royal Rumble and has been a weekly fixture on television up until his back injury, often involved in segments with Bad Bunny as they built their WrestleMania match against The Miz & Morrison.
