Alright, alright, let’s talk about this Damian Priest fella, the one they say is a big shot wrestler on that there TV. I don’t know much about wrestlin’, mind you, but my grandkid, he’s always yellin’ about it. So, I figured, what the heck, let’s see what all the fuss is about.
Now, they’re sayin’ this Damian Priest, his real name is somethin’ like Luis Martinez, somethin’ fancy like that. Born way back in 1982, makes him, what, older than my prize-winning rooster? He’s one of them Puerto Rican-American fellas, and strong as an ox, I reckon. They got him on that Raw show, whatever that is.
This fella, he’s a champ, they say. World Heavyweight Champion, that’s what they call it. Means he’s the toughest, I guess. And rich too! Two million dollars they say he’s got. Lordy, that’s a lot of hay. They pay him three hundred thousand dollars just for showin’ up, and then he gets more money from sellin’ them little toys and shirts with his face on ’em. Smart fella, makin’ money like that.
My grandkid told me somethin’ about him bein’ a “face” and then a “heel.” Sounded like gibberish to me, but I think it means he was a good guy and then turned bad or somethin’. He won some titles as a good guy, then joined up with this “Judgement Day” group, and then he was a bad guy, a “heel,” and won some more titles with a partner. This wrestlin’ stuff is confusing, I tell ya.
- First he was a good guy.
- Then he was a bad guy.
- Then he won a bunch of belts.
Just recently, my grandkid was jumpin’ up and down ’cause Damian Priest, he went and won that big belt again. At somethin’ called WrestleMania 40. He had this “Money in the Bank” thing, which sounds like he robbed a bank, but I guess it’s just a way to get a chance at the title. He beat some fella named Drew McIntyre, quick as a chicken snatchin’ a worm. Now he’s the champ again.
Folks are talkin’ about him bein’ real talented, one of the best. I wouldn’t know, but he seems to be doin’ alright for himself. There was this other fella, Gunther, I think his name was, that Damian Priest had to fight. Big ol’ fella, looked meaner than a hornet. But Damian, he beat him too, eventually, to get where he is now. My grandkid says he had to fight real hard to win that belt though. This wrestling thing seems like hard work, let me tell ya!
They say he had to win some kind of crazy four-way match to even get the chance at the title. Sounded like a real barn burner. Folks was interferin’ and whatnot, but Damian, he come out on top. Guess that’s why he’s the champ.
So, there you have it. That’s the lowdown on this Damian Priest fella, as far as I can tell. He’s a wrestler, a champion, and he’s got more money than I’ll ever see in my life. Good for him, I say. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed them chickens.
And you know, they got all this news about him all over the place. Every time you turn around, there’s somethin’ new about Damian Priest. Who he’s fightin’, what he’s winnin’, what he’s eatin’ for breakfast, probably. It’s hard to keep up, but I guess that’s what makes him a star.
He’s defended his title since WrestleMania too, they said. Guess that means he’s still the top dog, at least for now. This wrestling world, it changes faster than the weather, so who knows what’ll happen next. But for now, Damian Priest, he’s the man.
Anyway, that’s all I got on this Damian fella. He seems like a tough cookie, and he’s made a name for himself. More than I can say for most folks around here, that’s for sure.
