In a move that left jaws on the floor and the wrestling world buzzing, Damian Priest, representing The Judgment Day, cashed in his Money in the Bank contract during Night 2 of WrestleMania 40, with a little help from none other than the one and only CM Punk, who was serving up commentary gold.
The night kicked off with Drew McIntyre and Seth Rollins locked in a battle for the ages, vying for the coveted World Heavyweight Championship. McIntyre, fueled by the fire of determination, unleashed his trademark Claymore Kick early on, sending Rollins reeling. But Rollins wasn’t one to back down, delivering his own brand of punishment with a Stomp that would make even the hardiest wrestler wince.
Just when it seemed McIntyre had clinched the victory, ready to bask in the glory with his championship ringside, enter CM Punk, stage left. The straight-edge superstar, never one to shy away from the spotlight, saw an opportunity and seized it, sending McIntyre crashing from the announce desk and into a world of hurt.
But wait, there’s more! Cue Damian Priest’s electrifying entrance, the former Punishment Martinez bursting onto the scene with the Money in the Bank briefcase in hand. With a swift strike to McIntyre’s skull, Priest seized his moment, cashing in his golden ticket and unleashing the South of Heaven upon his opponent, clinching the victory and etching his name in the annals of WrestleMania history.
As Priest stood tall, the new World Heavyweight Champion, alongside his comrades in The Judgment Day, the echoes of his triumph reverberated throughout Philadelphia, leaving fans in awe and anticipation for what’s to come.
