Damian Priest clarifies rumors about upcoming WWE show

WWE has built Damian Priest into one of the biggest superstars in the company. The World Heavyweight Champion is set to have a big SummerSlam Weekend in and out of the ring. However, he was forced to clear up some speculation this week following an announcement.

The Archer of Infamy's first-ever WWE 24 documentary was recently announced for August. Officials then announced this week that Damian Priest Live will take place on Friday, August 2, at The Agora Cleveland during SummerSlam Weekend. The world premiere screening for Priest's documentary will also feature a panel discussion with Priest, Rhea Ripley, and Dominik Mysterio.

Members of the WWE Universe were under the impression that Priest would be performing stand-up comedy or a one-man show, like we've seen with The Undertaker and Sami Zayn. The 19-year veteran took to X today to clear up some of the confusion. It's interesting how he named Ripley and a surprise guest for the panel after the official announcement listed Rhea and Dominik.

"This is the premire for the 24 @WWE documentary. I'm not doing stand up but there is a Q&A after with myself, Rhea Ripley and really cool surprise guest. I'm pretty excited about this. Ticket in on pic. #LiveForever," Damian Priest wrote with the graphic below.

El Campeón announced after WrestleMania that he signed a new contract with World Wrestling Entertainment. It was then revealed that Priest inked a deal with award-winning full-service entertainment agency Paradigm, which is representing him in acting, books, marketing, and unscripted projects, among other areas.

Preview for WWE 24: Damian Priest

World Wrestling Entertainment's first-ever documentary on Damian Priest is set to premiere during SummerSlam Weekend. Priest will defend his World Heavyweight Championship against Gunther at the big event on August 3.

Officials have confirmed that the documentary will feature new interviews with Priest and his family, Triple H, The Undertaker, Paul Heyman, members of The Judgment Day, and other superstars. The trailer can be seen below.

Priest's documentary was touted as "an intimate, behind-the-scenes look at the long, obstacle-filled journey" that he took on the way to becoming the World Heavyweight Champion. The 41-year-old became champion during Night 2 of WrestleMania XL by cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase on Drew McIntyre, who had just dethroned Seth Rollins.
