by Damian Priest and Finn Balor are the current WWE Tag Team Champions. They won the title by defeating the team of Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso.
Damian Priest recently was interviewed by Kenny McIntosh of Inside The Ropes, where he talked about Tag Team Titles. Damian says there was a time where tag titles weren’t as important as now.
“I knew the feedback, what it was going to be. It’s hard when you do something different. People are accustomed to one way and some are open to change, but most aren’t. Just in general, that’s what it is. For me personally, fighting zombies was one of the coolest things I’ve ever done. I’m a big zombie fan, zombie movies and everything. I loved Army of the Dead. So for me, getting to fight zombies while I was doing it, I was like, this is pretty cool.“
“I know most people disagree with me, but they weren’t in my shoes in that moment when you see these professionally done-up zombies coming at you. And just me kicking them and doing wrestling moves. I mean, it was just ridiculous but it was very cool. I loved it. I understand the feedback because it’s just not the norm of what we do.“
“I get it. I sympathise with the purists who were like, This is not what we want to see. And I get it. But sometimes it enhances everything else that much more. You see that and then you see a great match that follows right after, it enhances that match even more. So there’s different ways to look at it. And I’m proud that we did that.” (H/T: Inside The Ropes)
