WWE officially gives Damian Priest a new nickname on RAW

Damian Priest takes on Gunther this weekend at Survivor Series: WarGames, but he was able to get the upper hand once again on WWE RAW. He took out Gunther and put him through the announce table with a Razor's Edge.

As part of the segment, Joe Tessitore called Damian Priest "The Street King," a reference to last week's backstage attack in which he made it clear to Gunther that he may be a General in the ring, but on the streets, he is the king.

This is the first time Priest has had a real nickname since he was known as The Archer of Infamy, a nickname that many fans wondered about but seemed to make his character work in his career initially.

It will be interesting to see if The Street King can pick up the win against Gunther at Survivor Series: WarGames. He has been able to belittle The Ring General in recent weeks and has already gotten the upper hand over him several times.

Gunther was once seen as an unbeatable WWE figure, but Priest has been able to humanize him, which could cause some major issues for him at Survivor Series: WarGames on Saturday Night.
