Damian Priest says knee feels like ‘trash’ following WWE Clash at the Castle

Damian Priest gave an update on his knee following his match at Clash at the Castle.

On the post-show press conference, Priest said his knee wasn’t feeling great, but is pretty sure he’s good to go.

“It feels like trash now,” he said. “I didn’t even go to medical yet so I could do this and answer your questions so you’re welcome. Docs will check it out but I mean, I ain’t going anywhere. I was able to beat Drew McIntyre with one foot, so I’m pretty sure I’m all good to go.”

During the course of the World Heavyweight title match, Priest went for a step-over dive to the outside of the ring. However, his ankle got caught in the ropes, entangling it. Priest finished the match despite the injury.

Later in the press conference, Triple H brought up the injury, hoping that it isn’t anything serious.

“I’m really hoping when I leave here I’m gonna get good news because while he is walking around okay now, I’m sure adrenaline is carrying him through that. There is such a fine line between what we do being safe and what we do not being safe.”

Priest retained the World Heavyweight title in the main event of Saturday’s premium live event. He won with the south of heaven chokeslam after CM Punk ran down as a referee to distract McIntyre, eventually leading to the finish.
