WWE World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest recently appeared in a vlog for the company, where he talked about a number of topics including the crowd’s reaction to his World Title win.

Priest said, โ€œStill the crowd, Philadelphia, I mean that was one of the most special things Iโ€™ve ever done in my life, the way they erupted and the entire run down, I mean I felt that energy like literally pumped through my veins. So special shoutout and thank you to that crowd man because they made this moment extra special and Iโ€™m eternally grateful.โ€

On his long journey to the title:

โ€œEvery sacrifice, every little bit of it, everything that bad came with this journey, Iโ€™d do it all over again it was 100% worth it. This moment, I knew it would be special. I still canโ€™t put into words how this feels, it over-exceeded my expectations of what it is to be the guy, be a champion here. Humbled.โ€

On the Judgment Day supporting him:

โ€œMy Judgment Day family has supported me this entire run. The moment I won that briefcase, even before then, theyโ€™ve been on me, believing in me and pushing me and making sure I didnโ€™t lose sight and focus. I canโ€™t thank them enough. I donโ€™t know where Iโ€™d be without them, but I do have them and I love them very much.โ€
