The transformation of WWE's Roman Reigns from being the most hated babyface to the much-loved heel is perhaps the company's greatest achievement of the modern era.

After Damian Priest's impeccable performance against Bad Bunny in the San Juan Street Fight at Backlash, fans have voiced their love for the Judgment Day star on Twitter. It is clear a majority of fans would love to see him promoted to a main event status, much like Roman Reigns himself.

It has also been reported that Priest has received a ton of praise backstage.

Damian Priest on advice WWE legend gave him that in turn was from The Undertaker

Priest shared an anecdote during WrestleMania 39 week, detailing how Triple H and Shawn Michaels finally viewed him as a credible star. In the process, he revealed that The Game once gave him a piece of advice that he did not understand at the time:

"He [Triple H] just goes, 'Look, I'm gonna give you the same advice that Undertaker told me. When you figure out how you're gonna be yourself in front of the camera, then you're gonna make a lot of money in the business.' And then I just stood there, I was like, thank you, and he said, 'I know you have no idea what I'm saying right now.' And I was like, nope! [laughs]."

The Judgment Day star then reflected on his persona at the time, stating that he was pretending to be a version of himself and what he thought people wanted to see.

"I didn't get it at the time. It wasn't until my match with Finn Balor that it clicked, and when I went to the back he [Triple H] goes, 'That's the guy I was looking for.' He goes, 'From now on, only be that guy.' And Shawn was right there too. Shawn Michaels was like, 'I don't ever want to see you revert backwards. Like this and forward.' And I said, 'Okay. You got it boss!'" said Damian Priest. (H/T Sportskeeda Wrestling)

After losing a triple threat match for the World Heavyweight Championship contendership, it remains to be seen what Damian Priest will be up to in the coming weeks for WWE's next Saudi event.
