Damian Priest joined the main roster in January 2021, just two months after WWE held a farewell ceremony for The Deadman at Survivor Series 2020. The two men have interacted behind the scenes in WWE, but their dark characters never crossed paths in an on-screen storyline.
Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Liam Power ahead of Clash at the Castle, Priest was asked to name a dream opponent he wishes he could face:

Damian Priest’s history with The Undertaker
The man behind the legendary Undertaker persona, Mark Calaway, occasionally visits WWE’s Performance Center in Orlando, Florida, to speak to the company’s up-and-coming stars.
In 2021, Damian Priest said it was “so cool” to lock up with the 57-year-old in a training session during his time in NXT. The Judgment Day member added that the iconic superstar threw a full-speed punch in his direction before pulling away at the last second.
Realistically, a match between Priest and The Phenom is unlikely to happen. The latter cryptically stated “never say never” during his Hall of Fame induction earlier this year. However, there has been no indication that an in-ring return is on the horizon.
