After weeks of teases, former WWE World Champion Damian Priest has officially arrived in AAA, and early signs suggest he is aiming to make an immediate impact.
During the July 4 episode of AAA on Fox, newly appointed general manager Rey Mysterio opened the show and introduced Priest as the newest addition to the roster. The appearance confirmed speculation about Priest’s involvement with the promotion.
Priest took part in the opening segment and delivered a promo in Spanish, outlining his intentions. He made it clear that he did not join AAA just to appear, but to dominate and pursue championships.
Damian Priest AAA Plans and WWE Status
Priest’s arrival raises questions about how his role in AAA will coexist with his current WWE commitments. He is still active on SmackDown, where he holds the WWE Tag Team Championships alongside R-Truth. His dual presence places him in a unique position across two major promotions.
At this stage, there are no confirmed details regarding Priest’s long-term plans in AAA or how frequently he will appear. His in-ring debut for the promotion has also not yet been announced, despite his official introduction.
Rey Mysterio added further intrigue during the segment by teasing a potential appearance from Bad Bunny in AAA, though no timeline or specifics were provided.
Priest, 43, began his professional wrestling career in 2005 and built experience across multiple promotions before joining WWE, where he went on to become a world champion. Despite his extensive career, this marks his first official involvement with AAA.
With Priest declaring his intention to chase titles, attention now turns to how AAA will position him and when he will step into the ring for the promotion. For now, his debut signals a notable addition to the roster, even as questions remain about the scope of his role.
