Although the win won’t last long, after an attack from CM Punk, Damien Priest would capitalize on the momentum and cash in his briefcase. However, what caught fan’s eyes the most was Seth Rollins’ emotional words to The Scottish Psychopath.

As the camera panned on The Visionary, it would catch him getting very emotional and whisper a few words to Drew McIntyre. A teary eyed Rollins would look at McIntyre and whisper, “You f***ing deserve it man”. 

The Former Messiah of Monday Night RAW would break character to compliment McIntyre and then make his way out.

A huge moment for McIntyre, but it won’t last long, as ego would come in his way. Post winning the World title, The Scott would parade around the ring, and then turn to mock CM Punk, who would not take the insults lightly.

This would then mark the start of Damien Priest’s rise.

Damien Priest breaks 50-year-old record against Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania XL

After CM Punk left Drew McIntyre gasping for breath, Damien Priest would enter the arena and put McIntyre down with a South of Heaven. He would then proceed to pin him and win his first World Title in WWE.

The 41-year-old would in turn break a 50-year-old record set by Pedro Morales. Morales was the first Puerto Rican Wrestler to win a WWE World Championship, and Priest now became the second one. Fans will now wait and see what unfolds for both of these stalwarts post WrestleMania.

It is heavily rumored that Rollins might go on a hiatus, while Priest might begin his single’s run. WWE is also returning to the UK at Clash at the Castle, and McIntyre might win back his title in his home country of Scotland.
