#3. Damian Priest lands awkwardly following a move over the top rope at SummerSlam

Damian Priest won the United States Championship last night at SummerSlam following Hit The Lights. This was delivered after Priest had already managed to injure himself.

Midway through the match, Sheamus was on the outside of the ring and Priest flipped over the ropes before landing awkwardly on his tail bone. He was able to make contact with Sheamus when he delivered the move, but it was obvious that he hurt himself more than his opponent.

Priest held his back and sold the injury for the rest of the match. The replays made it apparent that this wasn't the landing that the former North American Champion had planned.

Despite obviously struggling throughout the match, Priest was able to make it to the end and deliver Hit The Lights to Sheamus after he had ripped off his protective face mask. Despite the pain he was in, Priest managed to complete his first SummerSlam match successfully.

The United States Championship is Damian Priest's first title win since joining the main roster earlier this year.
