Damian Priest Feared WWE Release

In an interview with SI.com, WWE star Damian Priest reflected on the moment when he and Rhea Ripley learned that Edge (Adam Copeland) was being removed from The Judgment Day faction in 2022.

“We’d just had a major moment joining together, forming The Judgment Day. It felt like no time had passed, and then it was Edge who told me that he was being taken out of the group. He waited to tell me after TV one night when we were on the road. I thought we were done. I was so upset. When Rhea found out, she was even more mad than me.”

Priest went on to share that Edge himself was also upset: “Edge was mad, too. I still speak with him—he was one of our biggest backers. When he told me, I remember him saying, ‘All of this, for nothing.’ And I repeated that—‘for nothing.’ That’s the way it felt at the time. I was waiting for the phone call to get released. Obviously, it worked out a lot differently.”
