Damian Priest believes a 26-year-old WWE Superstar has the potential to become a "megastar" in the promotion. The Archer of Infamy was in action this past Saturday night at WWE Bad Blood.

Oba Femi is the reigning North American Champion and will be defending his title against Tony D'Angelo tonight on NXT. During a Fanatics Live Event, Damian Priest praised Oba Femi as a performer and made a bold claim about his future. Priest suggested that Femi would become a "megastar" in the company, and added that a future rivalry against him was inevitable.

“That’s gonna be a megastar. You can just tell sometimes and I mean, it’s all set up for him to just - he just has not taken his foot off the gas but, he’s gonna be fine so, I feel like that’s gonna inevitably happen anyway… Yeah, I’m not looking forward to that one (he laughed)," said Priest.

Priest formerly was a member of The Judgment Day but was betrayed by Finn Balor at SummerSlam. Balor cost Priest the World Heavyweight Championship at the premium live event in August, and the veteran got his revenge by defeating the 43-year-old this past Saturday night at Bad Blood.


Damian Priest makes interesting comment about WWE RAW star

Damian Priest recently noted that Rhea Ripley was a very emotional person and was looking for revenge at WWE Bad Blood.

Dominik Mysterio betrayed Rhea Ripley at SummerSlam earlier this year and helped Liv Morgan retain the Women's World Championship. Ripley battled Morgan again this past Saturday at Bad Blood, but Raquel Rodriguez interfered to end the match via disqualification.

WWE shared a vlog featuring Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest ahead of Bad Blood. In the video, Priest disclosed that Ripley was a very emotional person and had not gotten the chance to get her revenge on Mysterio and Morgan.

"Rhea [Ripley] is a very, very emotional person, and I know she's been holding all this inside 'cause she hasn't really gotten the chance to do the damage that she wants to do. At Bad Blood, I'm gonna enjoy every second of that magic," Damian Priest said. [1:29 - 1:47]
