And still: Damian Priest Transitional title like a car with a lease? So say some. Punishment Mar disagrees. Comes to the ring, got the belt when he leaves. Keeps, by any means. Ask Drew Mac, But the South of Heaven ain’t the best move in his tool bag. ‘Cause when the ref stops watching, CM Punk’s his top option. Let’s get it poppin’ My name is AO Baker and this episode’s signature move: CM Punk. Yes, you heard that correctly: the man Phil Brooks is a maneuver. Doesn’t seem like Damian Priest has anything else that can beat Drew McIntyre. WrestleMania 40. Money in the Bank briefcase cashed in…AND NEW world heavyweight champ. But it wasn’t the South of Heaven that did the damage. It was CM Punk. Fast forward. Clash at the Castle. Drew hits the Claymore Kick but there’s no ref. Punk runs down in a ref shirt. Hits the Shane McMahon Special two-count-double-bird. Then a low blow. AND STILL world heavyweight champ….Damian Priest. Thanks to CM Punk Fast forward again. Money in the Bank. Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Priest defending against Seth Rollins. Drew cashes in his newly won briefcase and now we have a no-disqualification triple threat match. With Seth Rollins watching from outside the ring, Damian defeated Drew…after Phil Brooks, a steel chair and 15 pounds of gold put Drew down. AND STILL world heavyweight champ…Damian Priest. Thanks to CM Punk. On August 3rd, Damian Priest defends his title against Gunther. The longest reigning Intercontinental Champion ever. But more importantly, at least in this case, a man that CM Punk doesn’t have a problem with so there won’t be any CM Punk interference for Damian Priest to rely on. A lot of people have been calling Damian Priest a transitional champion. If he cares to silence those critics, he’ll have to beat Gunther on his own. No Judgement Day. No ref bumps. And no CM Punk. If he fails, his reign will soon be forgotten and the only person going “south of heaven” will be Damian Priest, himself. + Connect with me: https://madebyaobaker.com/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@iamaobaker IG: https://www.instagram.com/iamaobaker/ X: https://x.com/iamaobaker
