In a podcast session with Fouad Abiad, Iain Valliere & Mike Van Wyck, Priest talked about the present wave of bodybuilders who often copy the older generation.

Priest then went on to reply with a snarly comment. He said, “That’s pretty cool even the tren twins are copying my arm workout so if the younger kids can remember an old f**k like me who’s turning 52, I find it a compliment.” The bodybuilding experts then went on to speculate how Sam Sulek had photoshopped a picture of him in place of Lee Priest in a photo with the Quadfather, Tom Platz.
Although Sam Sulek has pulled such a stunt as photoshopping his face and replacing it with Lee Priest, the latter still came up to defend him when others were criticizing Sam Sulek in numbers.
