Damian Priest was running a popular New Jersey strip club.“It was a good job, paid really well, included an apartment on the boardwalk that Al Capone used to live in apparently, and a free vehicle. I was set,” said Priest, who will be performing at Monday Night Raw at Madison Square Garden.Prior to making his way onto wrestling’s biggest stage, the 39-year-old Bronx native, whose real name is Luis Martínez, ran Stiletto Gentlemen’s Club in Atlantic City.He threw in the towel in 2012 when one of the club’s owners asked him to choose between the club and his then-side gig: wrestling.
“I don’t know why, at that moment, it was instinct … Now doing that and not really having anything, I was like, ‘Oh no, what did I just do?’ And that was the moment I turned my life around,” he said.The road to professional wrestling was a rocky one for the 6-foot-5 powerhouse that included a 100-pound weight loss, eviction notices and days when he couldn’t afford to eat.“It was brutal for a while … You’re making little to no money, you’re hoping just to get a handshake and a hot dog sometimes and that’s it,” he said. That struggle and hard work paid off when he signed with World Wrestling Entertainment in 2018.
But Priest never forgets his roots — especially when he comes back to fight at the Garden.“My dad would take me to every single event that WWE would have at Madison Square Garden,” he said. “That’s where I literally, I knew I had to do this with my life.
