5 years after his retirement, WWE SmackDown star says he wants to face The Undertaker

The Undertaker is one of the most legendary professional wrestlers of all time. He made a name for himself in the WWE and had a 30-year long Hall of Fame career. However, 5 years since his retirement a SmackDown star has now stated that he wants to face the Deadman. The star is none other than Damian Priest.

The Archer of Infamy recently made an appearance on the Delivering Happiness series on Prince St. Pizza's Youtube Channel. During his appearance, Priest was asked about his dream opponent and his answer was the Deadman.

“The easy answer is always like you could pick anybody, and it’s always Undertaker, man. That was who you should remember from back then. But no, uh, that guy was the reason why I fell in love with wrestling. It was his persona, the aura, and everything. So if I had to pick somebody, he’s always the easy answer, man. Like, it would be cool to just be in the ring and watch his entrance, to be honest.” He said. (17:30 onwards) [H:T/ITRWrestling]

It's great to see new stars like Priest talk about their love for the Phenom like this as fans.
