Rhea Ripley, the current Women’s World Champion, believes that Damian Priest, her fellow Judgement Day stablemate, is ready to take the spot of Roman Reigns in WWE, during her recent interview. The Australian WWE superstar talked about how much she knows the Archer of Infamy from her days at the NXT and then, in the main roster, while stating that sky is the limit for him.
As the reigning, defending, and the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns had been the top superstar in the promotion since 2020. During his highly decorated championship run, the Tribal Chief hasn’t been pinned in a singles match in the last three years.

Damian Priest, who is the current holder of the Money in the Bank (MITB) contract, has the great opportunity to cash it in, for a championship match of his choosing at anytime, anyplace for up to a year. With Roman Reigns being the biggest box office draw in the WWE currently, the Archer of Infamy could do the unthinkable by dethrone him off his perch with the help of MITB contract, to solidify his status as one of the best superstars in the company.
During her chat with Sportskeeda, when Rhea Ripley was asked about whether Damian Priest can take the spot of Seth Rollins, she claimed that the 40-year-old is capable of taking the spot of Roman Reigns. She was quoted as saying, “I think he's ready to take Roman's spot.”
“Damian is ready for anything. I've known this man pretty much the entire time that I've been in NXT. I came to the main roster the exact same time as him. We did our initiation together. I know what he's capable of and I think that the sky is the limit, and if he wants to get whatever gold he wants, I think he can do it,” the Australian WWE superstar added.
