In one of the strangest plot developments that WWE has booked recently, The Miz was "devoured" by zombies at WrestleMania Backlash. His ally, John Morrison, was also overwhelmed by these supernatural creatures.

But unlike The Miz, Morrison appeared on WWE RAW to exact revenge for his fallen comrade by fighting Damian Priest in a normal Lumberjack match.

Interestingly, Nikki Cross was the only female lumberjack present in the match. WWE made sure to highlight her exuberating ringside presence throughout the bout. Other lumberjacks featured during Morrison and Priest's clash were as follows:

• Erik
• Ivar
• T-Bar
• Mace
• Cedric Alexander
• Mustafa Ali
• Mansoor
• Titus O’Neil
• Cedric Alexander
• Akira Tozawa
• Shelton Benjamin
• Lince Dorado
• Gran Metalik

The Lumberjack match ended with Damian Priest defeating John Morrison inside the squared circle. It seemed as though his feud with The Miz and Morrison had also come to an end.

So after the match, Priest was asked about his future pursuits in WWE. The former NXT star hinted that he could enter the WWE Championship picture. While Priest didn't appear during Bobby Lashley's open challenge in the main event, he should move up the pecking order in some way on RAW.
