Professional wrestlers often find love while being on the road and Damian Priest could be the latest one to have joined the list. The one-time WWE World Champion has been linked up on social media in recent times with the former WWE Star CJ Perry FKA Lana. Now their dating rumors have further been fueled up following Wrestlemania XL.
On Night Two of WWE’s extravaganza on April 7, Damian Priest cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on Drew McIntyre to become the new World Heavyweight Champion. Following the biggest win of his career, he was seen celebrating in a pub with Lana which led the fans to believe that the two could share a bond that is more than friendship.
