Damian Priest Wins World Heavyweight Title In Chaotic Fashion at WrestleMania 40 Night Two – At WWE WrestleMania XL Night Two, Drew McIntyre stepped up to challenge Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship in a highly-anticipated showdown. With CM Punk providing commentary, the stage was set for an intense battle.
Right from the start, McIntyre wasted no time, delivering a thunderous Claymore to Rollins for an early near fall. Despite Rollins’ resilience, McIntyre maintained the pressure, with both competitors pushing themselves to the limit. However, Rollins’ recent knee injury from WrestleMania XL Night One proved to be a hindrance, affecting his performance throughout the match.
As the bout intensified, McIntyre locked eyes with Punk at ringside, adding another layer of tension to the match. Mocking Punk with a “GTS” taunt, McIntyre found himself countered by Rollins, who fought back valiantly despite his injury. But ultimately, McIntyre seized the moment, catching Rollins off guard with a sudden Claymore to secure the victory.
However, McIntyre’s celebration was short-lived as Punk seized the opportunity to confront him. Words turned into action as Punk unleashed an assault on McIntyre, leaving him vulnerable. In a shocking turn of events, Damian Priest capitalized on the chaos, cashing in his Money in the Bank contract to challenge McIntyre for the title.
Priest executed the South of Heaven on McIntyre, claiming the victory and his first-ever world title in WWE. This marked the end of Rollins’ impressive 316-day reign as champion and the beginning of a new era with McIntyre and Priest at the forefront.
