Someone is trying to get on Damian Priest‘s good side and it appears they’re on the right track.
On Monday night’s episode of WWE Raw, JD McDonagh who’s been lingering around The Judgment Day because of his Irish blood brother Finn Balor, aimed to mend fences with Priest by presenting him with not just a new Money In The Bank briefcase, but a personalized one.
Priest and Balor are fresh off of WWE Payback by defeating Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens for the WWE Undisputed Tag Team Titles, but McDonagh made sure Priest, who he’s shared plenty of tension with over the last several weeks, had additional new hardware.
McDonagh pulled a fast one on Priest and the fans by telling him “that briefcase needs to go” but instead of meaning giving up ownership he meant an upgrade, presenting a new briefcase in The Judgment Day purple with “Señor Money In The Bank” labeled on it.

Damian Priest Continues To Be On The Rise
With the fact that Priest is donning gold and a World Title cash-in, WWE has clearly been behind the former Punishment Martinez. Ever since his Backlash battle against Bad Bunny, Damian Priest has given WWE the confidence to move forward with him as a rising star. All of The Judgment Day have gold for themselves and Rhea Ripley even went to claim on tonight’s episode of Raw that their faction is superior to The Bloodline as that family is fractured. Priest is a big part of it, and plenty seeds have been planted for him to break out as a top singles star.
