WWE star Damian Priest discussed various topics with Sam Roberts, including moments when he broke character during the Judgment Day segments featuring R-Truth.

Priest said, โ€œI was about to say, I didnโ€™t do well. Oh, man. I remember Hunter telling me, he was like, โ€˜You have a horrible poker face. โ€˜I was like, โ€˜Stop putting me on TV with this guy then!โ€™ I was like, โ€˜Itโ€™s the one guy. Nobody else has done that.’ But then not too long after that, he broke Hunter on TV. I went right up, I ran into Gorilla just to go right up to him like, โ€˜You see, I told you!โ€™ and then he started laughing. He goes, โ€˜That guy, heโ€™s the one and onlyโ€™, and he really is. Yeah, it was horrible.โ€

He added, โ€œThe only saving grace is that some of those backstage segments, a few of them were pre-taped so we could do them again.โ€

Speaking of R-Truth, he referred to Damian Priest as his โ€œbig brotherโ€ and hinted at a new alliance that could shake up the current roster dynamics.
