Damian Priest makes a sudden change in stipulation for Seth Rollins after beating him; face turn teased again
Damian Priest has proved to be an incredible, top-tier world champion. In an almost unprecedented move, he changed the stipulation of things for Seth Rollins in a backstage segment, teasing a face turn again.
Tonight on RAW, Seth Rollins went up to The Judgment Day so he could speak to Damian Priest. While giving Priest his flowers, he said that the World Heavyweight Champion would have to do much more at SummerSlam to retain his title, alluding to the interferences that led to Priest retaining Money in the Bank. Giving his word on the gentleman's agreement, Rollins assured him he wouldn't challenge for his World Title.
As he was going, Damian Priest stopped him and threw the gentleman's agreement out the window. He assured Rollins that once he beats Gunther at SummerSlam, he will run it back with The Architect:
This was a continuous tease of a face turn - something that has been happening for months. Despite Priest's title defenses coming by way of interference, it's interference he never asked for.
As a champion, Priest has been top tier. What was also interesting post-this interaction was that somebody called The Archer of Infamy and said they were at the arena.
It seems like things are going to be shaken up.
