Triple H Reveals Extent of Damian Priest’s Injury After Botch at Clash at the Castle

Clash at the Castle. a premium live event that took place tonight in Glasgow, Scotland, and featured an amazing main event. The final match of the night was for the World Heavyweight Championship, which the champion Damian Priest put up for grabs against the home hero, Drew McIntyre.

The storyline of the match had its roots in revenge, following the Judgment Day member’s Money in the Bank briefcase at WrestleMania 40 being cashed in on the Scottish Warrior after the latter had won the title minutes earlier. And tonight, the Scottish Warrior had the chance to get his revenge and get the gold.

The match was spectacular, to say the least. However, it wasn’t as flawless as the wrestlers would’ve wanted. In one of the spots, Damian Priest attempted to hit Drew McIntyre with his traditional middle-string suicide dive. This time, unfortunately, it was not performed well by the World Heavyweight Champion, who got stuck with his right foot between the middle and upper ropes, risking a serious injury. And now, Triple H did provide an update as to whether the star did get injured.

Throughout the match, the Judgment Day member was seen feeling discomfort in his leg. Limping and grabbing the leg that was caught. And in the post-show press conference, Triple H shared an update on the injury to the Judgment Day member. The COO of the company revealed that Priest might’ve suffered an injury, but it has yet to be verified by the medical professionals.

Triple H revealed that pro wrestling is not as safe as many believe, and it too has its fair share of pain. And while Priest might not be feeling it right now due to all the adrenaline rushing through his body, it is possible that all might not be well with the leg of the heavyweight champion.

HHH said, “When I saw that happen to Damian, my heart jumped out of my chest. I didn’t see any way that he wasn’t injured. When I got word that he was fine, which adrenaline is a helluva drug. I’m really hoping I will get good news. Because while he is walking around okay now. I’m sure adrenaline is carrying him through that.”

With this win, Priest marked his 69th day with the title since he won it for the first time at WrestleMania. However, unlike his fellow Judgment Day member Rhea Ripley, Priest would not like to vacate his title after an injury. So he and the WWE creatives would be hoping that everything turns out to be fine for the champion. What did you think of the spot? Do you think it could be a major injury? Let us know in the comments.
