The Sin City Street Fight taking place at Wrestlemania 41 between Drew McIntyre and Damian Priet was a lot of fun as McIntyre was able to step up and walk out victorious. The match was full with weapons and lived up to the street fight stipulation that the match had. With chairs, tables, and the steel steps all being used throughout the match, there was a lot of exciting moments.

Mcintyre was able to push Priest through two tables set up on the outside of the ring, placed Priest’s head next to the chair and hit a Claymore Kick for the victory. Let’s take a closer look at what this means for both Drew McIntyre and Damian Priest following Wrestlemania 41.

Drew McIntyre Wins the Sin City Street Fight

Drew McIntyre and Damian Priest are no strangers to one another as just one year ago, Priest cashed in his Money in the Bank contract after McIntyre won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship over Seth Rollins at Night 2 of Wrestlemania 40. However, they were locked up against one another a year later once again and the street fight atmosphere was able to add to the match. McIntyre even tweeted during the match, taking a picture and saying “Still bored at work lol”, referencing doing the same thing at Wrestlemania 40 against Rollins.

In terms of what is next, do not be surprised to see Drew McIntyre be elevated into the WWE Championship picture on Smackdown going forward as he is a main event talent and continues to elevate his stock. For Damian Priest, there is going to be a need for the former World Heavyweight Champion to get some wins together as he has not won a match on a Premium Live Event since Bad Blood 2024. Priest is a strong talent and could be gunning for the WWE United States Championship next as a challenger for new champion Jacob Fatu.
