Male ex-WWE champion wants to win the World Tag Team Titles with Rhea Ripley

Damian Priest has been riding a massive wave of success having recently won the World Heavyweight Title at WWE WrestleMania 40. After a brief reign, Finn Balor betrayed him at SummerSlam 2024, costing him the title against Gunther.

Priest wasn’t the only one backstabbed; Rhea Ripley was also betrayed by Dominik Mysterio. The two joined forces to punish their former faction mates, and at Bash in Berlin, they defeated Morgan and Mysterio.

At Bad Blood 2024, following his win over Balor, Priest announced his split from Ripley to focus on his singles career. However, it looks like The Terror Twins might reunite and capture gold together soon.

During a recent interview on Casual Conversations with The Classic, the 42-year-old star discussed the possibility of teaming up with Ripley to capture tag team gold. He noted that if creative allows it, they would be an unstoppable force, capable of winning titles together.

"Yeah, it's very possible. If they allow Rhea (Ripley) to be my partner for the world tag team titles, that's 100% possible we can beat anybody. I just don't think... there's nobody right now in WWE that I feel like I can't stand toe-to-toe with and I know she (Rhea Ripley) thinks the same way. So if you put us together in a team. I mean you saw how we wiped the floor with Dom and Liv. That was cake work. Now you put us against the tag team champs, I am not saying it will be cake work but we will get it done. So that's on Pearce and the office people at the company to decide," said Damian. [12:07 to 12:45]

What’s next for former WWE world champion Damian Priest?

Former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest has once again earned his way back to the top of the RAW men's division by securing his place as the number one contender for Gunther’s title.

Shortly after the main event of RAW this past week, Gunther and Damian had a brief face-off. The rematch between these two giants is definitely going to be a war. It will be interesting to see if The Archer of Infamy will be able to recapture his lost title or if The Ring General is going to overpower him just like he did at SummerSlam 2024.
