Priest also eliminated both John Morrison and The Miz at the Royal Rumble, whom he faced at WrestleMania 36 with Bad Bunny by his side.

This was quite a moment for Priest and the Archer of Infamy has kept impressing since moving to WWE Raw.

Priest even named some of the Legendary WWE superstars Edge, Randy Orton. Priest also said that he wants to square off against his buddies Keith Lee and Matt Riddle.

While Speaking on the WWE After the Bell (h/t Wrestling Inc.), he mentioned top names such as Roman Reigns and more:

“It’s funny, ’cause again I sound like a company guy by saying something like this, but I want to work with everybody,” Priest said. “There’s a reason everybody works here; they’re really good at what they do. For me, I want everybody, but selfishly I want the marquee names like Bobby Lashley, Drew McIntyre, Finn Balor on this stage, goes without saying Roman Reigns, Edge, Randy [Orton]. There’s just so many people. Then I got my buddies, Keith Lee and Matt Riddle. Hell yeah, I want to square off with them, or tag, or do something.”

It seems like he wants more and wants to continue his legacy by defeating Bobby Ashley and winning the WWE Championship Title.
