Damian Priest gives an update on his ankle.
There was a scary spot in the WWE World Heavyweight Title bout between Damian Priest and Drew McIntyre at WWE Clash at the Castle when Priest got hung up by his right ankle in the ropes. He was noticeably favoring his right ankle and leg throughout the rest of the match, but managed to finish the bout and defeat McIntyre.
Speaking at the WWE Clash at the Castle press conference, Priest was asked how his ankle is.
"It feels like trash right now. I didn't even go to medical so I could do this and answer your questions. The docs will check it out. I'm not going anywhere. I was able to beat Drew McIntyre on one foot, so I'm pretty sure I'm good to go," he said.
I hope Damian Priest is fine. That looked nasty even Drew McIntyre broke the character and helped him.#WWECastlepic.twitter.com/u7FoOApreh
