Damian Priest Got First Class Travel Perk As Part Of New WWE Contract
In April 2024, Damian Priest revealed that he signed a new contract with WWE.
Speaking to Cody Rhodes on What Do You Want To Talk About? Priest revealed a perk that came along with the contract.
“Part of my contract, up until this point, I’m a big guy. I don’t think I ever sat in first class in my life, but I was like, ‘Hey, I don’t want to be in pain anymore. I don’t want to wrestle and then be [scrunched up on the plane]. I’m sorry, I’m a big guy and I don’t fit.’ They were like, ‘Oh, that’s not a problem. You should’ve had that already.’ I didn’t know the rules. I don’t know how to politic and ask for stuff. That’s not me. It was the first time they were like, ‘Yeah, you can sit at the front of the plane for now.’ The first time this went into effect was when we went to Australia last year,” said Priest.
Priest noted he was sitting up front with Triple H and The Undertaker, and worried how that would look, so he spent most of the trip in the back.
Elsewhere during the podcast, Cody Rhodes discussed producing a live event with Seth Rollins. You can find his full comments here.
