On the March 28th episode of WWE SmackDown, Damian Priest attacked Drew McIntyre, who was leaving the building to celebrate after defeating Randy Orton.
Priest ended up hitting a South of Heaven chokeslam on McIntyre onto a car windshield.
"Part of the glass, where I landed on the windshield, bounced up and landed directly in my eyeball," McIntyre told Rebecca Lowe and Gary Neville on It's Called Soccer. "I'm currently sporting the patch, hoping I can figure this thing out and get myself on WrestleMania. It's a fight against time right now. It didn't feel that bad. I've never landed on a windshield in my life. He probably should've thrown me on top of the car or the concrete to hurt more. I've never landed on a windshield, but the glass is designed to spider out. I was wearing a leather jacket so thankfully I didn't get all cut up. The fall wasn't great, but not as bad as I thought it was going to be. Some debris came up in the air and landed straight in my eye, so I'm dealing with that right now.
"The eye thing wasn't supposed to happen. I'm not supposed to be sitting here right now with an eyepatch on, yet, I am."
McIntyre vs. Priest has yet to be made official for WrestleMania 41.
