One & Done | Damien Priest


This past weekend was WWE WrestleMania 40, and Damian Priest made his enterance with a cool looking mask. 

According to a Reddit user:

"It’s a mask that represents Puerto Rican culture and heritage. It’s called a vejigante mask. It’s a demonic symbol that is meant to scare people away. Beautiful call back."
