Luis Berrios Martínez Jr.[1] (born September 26, 1982) is an American professional wrestler. As of October 2018, he is signed to WWE, where he performs on the Raw brand under the ring name Damian Priest. He is also known for his work in Ring of Honor (ROH) under the ring name Punishment Martinez, where he is a former one-time ROH World Television Champion.[5] He also worked in Japan through ROH's relationship with New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW).

Martínez Jr. joined WWE in 2018 and began on its developmental brand, NXT, under his ring name, winning the NXT North American Championship. In 2021, he moved to WWE's main roster and won the WWE United States Championship. He rose to popularity during his time as a founding member of The Judgment Day from 2022 to 2024, where he won the 2023 Men's Money in the Bank contract, became a four-time tag team champion, holding the Raw and SmackDown Tag Team Championships twice each under the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship banner with fellow Judgment Day stablemate Finn Bálor (being the only tag team to achieve such an accolade), and won the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania XL after becoming the second man in history to cash in successfully at the namesake event.

Early life

Luis Berrios Martínez Jr. was born in New York City to a Nuyorican family, but raised in Dorado, Puerto Rico, where he first saw the World Wrestling Council (WWC) on television and developed an interest in becoming a professional wrestler.[6] He learned Gōjū-ryū karate from his martial artist father. After winning two national championships in full-contact martial arts, Martínez Jr. decided to embark on a career in professional wrestling.[1] When he returned to New York, Spanish was still his first language and he underwent a period of cultural adaptation. He was ten years old when he returned and lived primarily in The Bronx. At one point, Martínez Jr. was homeless and often slept on the streets, also working as a bouncer to make ends meet.[7]

Professional wrestling career

Ring of Honor (2015–2018)

Martinez Jr's first appearance at an ROH show was in 2015, where he competed in two dark matches under his real name, losing the first to The Romantic Touch and winning the second alongside Shaheem Ali against Hellcat and Mattick.[8]

Martinez returned to Ring of Honor in early 2016 to compete in the ROH Top Prospect Tournament, under the new ring name Punishment Martinez, defeating Colby Corino in the first round.[9] Martinez lost to Lio Rush in the semifinals; however, despite the loss, Martinez was signed to a contract by Ring of Honor. He became a villain when he aligned himself with B. J. Whitmer and Kevin Sullivan, entering a rivalry with their adversary Steve Corino. On September 16, Martinez took part in the Honor Rumble, but was eliminated.[8] In early November, he participated in the Survival of the Fittest, where he was eliminated in the final Six Man Mayhem match. Martinez and Whitmer went on to briefly feud with the former ROH World Tag Team Champions War Machine (Hanson and Raymond Rowe), first wrestling them to a no contest and then defeating them in an anything-goes match.[8]

Through ROH's working relationship with New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), Martinez appeared at the two-day event Honor Rising: Japan. On the first night on February 26, Martinez teamed up with Los Ingobernables de Japón members Hiromu Takahashi and Tetsuya Naito, defeating Dalton Castle, Hiroshi Tanahashi and Ryusuke Taguchi.[10] The next night, Martinez unsuccessfully challenged Hirooki Goto for the NEVER Openweight Championship.[11] Using the name Damian Martinez, he returned to ROH on March 14, unsuccessfully competing in a Manhattan Mayhem Battle Royal for #1 contendership to the ROH World Championship.[12]

At the promotion's State of the Art event on June 16, 2018, Martinez pinned Cheeseburger in a six-way Proving Ground match to earn a shot at the ROH World Television Championship immediately following the match, defeating Silas Young to win the title.[13] On June 29 at Best in the World, he defeated "Hangman" Adam Page in a Baltimore Street Fight to retain the title.[14] At Death Before Dishonor XVI on September 28, Martinez successfully defended the title against Chris Sabin. After the match, he attacked Sabin before Jeff Cobb made the save.[15] In his final appearance for the promotion, he dropped the Television Championship to Cobb. On September 29, Martinez's contract with Ring of Honor expired and he opted out of a contract offer.[16]

Priest returned on the July 12 episode of Raw, saving Humberto Carrillo from an attack by United States Champion Sheamus after their title match and starting a feud between the two.[52] He challenged Sheamus to a title match at SummerSlam on the August 9 episode of Raw, which Sheamus accepted.[53] At SummerSlam on August 21, Priest defeated Sheamus to win the United States Championship for the first time in his career.[54] He made his first successful title defense against Sheamus and Drew McIntyre in a triple threat match on the August 30 episode of Raw.[55] Priest retained the title against Jeff Hardy on the September 13 episode of Raw, and in a triple threat match also involving Sheamus at Extreme Rules on September 26.[56][57] On the following episode of Raw, Priest defeated Sheamus in a no-disqualification, no count-out match to retain the title, ending their feud.[58] He then successfully defended the title against Hardy in a rematch on the October 4 episode of Raw.[59]

On the October 25 episode of Raw, with a new, revamped character, he defeated T-Bar; after the latter threw a chair at the former outside the ring, Priest viciously attacked T-Bar, turning himself into a tweener.[60] At Survivor Series on November 21, Priest lost to Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura in a champion vs. champion match by disqualification after repeated distractions from Nakamura's ally Rick Boogs, causing Priest to attack both of them, marking his second loss on the main roster.[61] Over the following months, Priest successfully defended the title on Raw against the likes of Sami Zayn,[62] Apollo Crews,[63] Robert Roode,[64] Dolph Ziggler,[65] Kevin Owens[66] and AJ Styles.[67] On the February 21, 2022 episode of Raw, Finn Bálor challenged Priest to a title match on the following episode of Raw,[68] where Priest lost the United States Championship to Balor, ending his reign at 191 days.

At Night 2 of WrestleMania 38 on April 3, Priest distracted AJ Styles during his match against Edge, causing Styles to lose the match. After the match, Edge celebrated his victory with Priest, starting an alliance between the two.[70] Following WrestleMania, Edge and Priest were dubbed The Judgment Day.[71] At Hell in a Cell on June 5, The Judgment Day (Edge, Priest and Rhea Ripley) defeated Styles, Finn Bálor, and Liv Morgan in a six-person mixed tag team match.[72] The next night on Raw, Edge introduced Bálor as the newest member of The Judgment Day. However, Bálor, Priest and Ripley suddenly attacked Edge, kicking him out of the stable.[73] The Judgment Day then began a feud with the Mysterios (Rey and Dominik) in an attempt to recruit Dominik into their ranks. At SummerSlam on July 30, Priest and Bálor were defeated by the Mysterios following interference from a returning Edge.[74] On September 3, at Clash at the Castle, Priest and Bálor lost to Edge and Rey Mysterio, after which Dominik turned heel on both of them to join The Judgment Day.[75][76] At Crown Jewel on November 5, Priest, Bálor, and Dominik defeated The O.C. (Styles, Luke Gallows, and Karl Anderson) in a six-man tag team match after interference from Ripley.[77] On the November 28 episode of Raw, The Judgment Day defeated The O.C. in an eight-person mixed tag team match to end their feud.[78]

On the January 9, 2023 episode of Raw, Priest, Bálor and Dominik won a tag team turmoil match for a Raw Tag Team Championship opportunity against The Usos.[79] At Raw is XXX on January 23, The Usos successfully defended the championship against Priest and Dominik despite Jimmy Uso's injury, with Sami Zayn taking Jimmy's place.[80] At the Royal Rumble on January 28, Priest entered the Royal Rumble match at #22; although he and Balor were eliminated by the returning Edge, they eliminated him as a result with help from Dominik afterwards.[81] On the February 6 episode of Raw, Priest defeated Angelo Dawkins to qualify for the Elimination Chamber match for the United States Championship.[82] At Elimination Chamber on February 18, Priest failed to win the title inside the namesake structure.[83]

Bálor interfered during the match to Priest's chagrin as Priest claimed he did not need The Judgment Day to beat Rollins.[89]

World Heavyweight Champion (2023–2024)

On the June 12 episode of Raw, Priest defeated Matt Riddle to qualify for the men's Money in the Bank ladder match on July 1,[90] where Priest successfully retrieved the briefcase. Later that night, Priest appeared halfway through the World Heavyweight Championship match between Bálor and Seth Rollins. Priest's presence distracted Bálor, allowing Rollins to take advantage and win the match, much to Bálor's irritation.[91] At Payback on September 2, Priest and Bálor defeated Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn to win the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship after interference from Dominik, Ripley and JD McDonagh. Priest became the third wrestler to win a title and hold the Money in the Bank briefcase simultaneously, the first being Rob Van Dam with the Intercontinental Championship in 2006 and The Miz in 2010 with the United States Championship.[92] On the September 25 episode of Raw, Priest and Bálor defeated Owens and Zayn in a rematch to retain their titles.[93] At Fastlane on October 7, Priest and Bálor lost the titles to Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso after McDonagh accidentally hit Priest with the briefcase, ending their first reign at 35 days.[94] Priest and Bálor, however, regained the titles in a rematch on the October 16 episode of Raw after interference from Jimmy Uso.[95]

At Crown Jewel on November 4, Priest attempted to cash in on Rollins after his successful title defense against Drew McIntyre, but Zayn stopped him and ran off with the briefcase before he could officially do so. Later that night, Priest lost to Rhodes.[96] On the November 13 episode of Raw, Priest and Bálor defeated Rhodes and Uso in a rematch to retain their titles after interference from McIntyre.[97] On the November 24 episode of SmackDown, Priest and Bálor retained their titles against the Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford).[98] The next night at Survivor Series: WarGames, Priest participated in his first WarGames match alongside The Judgment Day and McIntyre, losing to Rhodes, Rollins, Uso, Zayn, and the returning Randy Orton.[99] On the December 18 episode of Raw, Priest and Bálor successfully defended their titles against The Creed Brothers (Brutus Creed and Julius Creed).[100] At Royal Rumble on January 27, 2024, Priest entered the namesake match at #26, eliminating R-Truth before being eliminated by Sami Zayn.[101] On the following episode of Raw, Priest and Bálor defeated #DIY (Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa) to retain their titles.[102] At Elimination Chamber: Perth on February 24, Priest and Bálor successfully defended the titles against New Catch Republic (Pete Dunne and Tyler Bate).[103] On Night 1 of WrestleMania XL on April 6, Priest and Bálor lost the SmackDown Tag Team Championship to A-Town Down Under (Austin Theory and Grayson Waller) and the Raw Tag Team Championship to the Awesome Truth (The Miz and R-Truth) respectively in a six-pack tag team ladder match, ending their second reign with the undisputed titles at 173 days.[104]

The following day, at Night 2 of WrestleMania XL, Priest successfully cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on Drew McIntyre to win the World Heavyweight Championship following an attack by CM Punk, becoming the second person, after Rollins, to cash in at WrestleMania, as well as the first world champion of Puerto Rican descent, and second overall, since Pedro Morales in 1971.[105] At Backlash France on May 4, Priest defeated Jey Uso in his first defense after interference from Bálor and McDonagh, despite asking them not to interfere.[106] On June 15, at Clash at the Castle: Scotland, Priest successfully defended the title against McIntyre in the latter's home country after interference from Punk.[107] On the June 17 episode of Raw, Priest challenged the returning Seth Rollins to a title match at Money in the Bank, which received a stipulation the next week; if Rollins lost, he would be unable to challenge Priest for the title as long as he held it. but if Priest lost, he would be forced to leave The Judgment Day.[108][109] At the event on July 6, Priest successfully defended his title against Rollins and McIntyre, the latter of whom cashed in his newly won Money in the Bank briefcase during the match, but was attacked by Punk. Priest subsequently pinned McIntyre to retain his title.[110] After the event, Priest began showing more respect to his opponents as his crowd support gradually increased, teasing a face turn in the process. At SummerSlam on August 3, Priest lost the title to King of the Ring winner Gunther via technical submission, ending his reign at 118 days. In the closing moments, Priest hit Gunther with a South of Heaven chokeslam, only for Bálor to betray Priest by placing Gunther's foot on the bottom rope to void the pin, fully turning Priest face for the first time since February 2022.[111]

The Terror Twins (2024–present)

On the following episode of Raw, Bálor officially kicked Priest and Ripley out of the group (the latter having been betrayed by "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio at SummerSlam) and introduced the "new" Judgment Day, consisting of himself, Mysterio, McDonagh, and the new additions of Carlito (once an associate member of the group now an official member) and Liv Morgan. Later that night, during Priest's match against McDonagh, he was ambushed by Bálor and the rest of The Judgment Day, until Ripley came out to save him. Priest and Ripley would afterwards embrace each other, staying together as a team and going by their unofficial tag team name, The Terror Twins.[112] At Bash in Berlin on August 31, Priest and Ripley defeated Dominik and Morgan, with Ripley pinning Morgan despite interference from The Judgment Day.[113] At Bad Blood on October 5, Priest defeated Bálor despite interference from Carlito and McDonagh.[114] On the November 4 episode of Raw, Priest defeated Dominik Mysterio, Seth "Freakin" Rollins and Sheamus in a fatal four-way match to become the #1 contender for the World Heavyweight Championship.[115]

Professional wrestling style and persona

Martínez Jr. is known for his deep voice, which has helped him in his promos to maintain his menacing, dark character.[116] In WWE, "Damian Priest" was previously intended to be a similar, but darker, more intense character than the characters he has represented previously in other promotions.[117] However, his character gradually evolved and developed a more machismo, rockstar-like attitude that pursues more fame, recognition and success, and the character is further emphasized by portraying bars, parties and women frequently with him in backstage segments. Therefore, he has been referred to as "The Archer of Infamy".[118][119][120]

His wrestling style involves various power moves as well as high-flying moves, and his striking is heavily influenced by his background in martial arts.[121] He uses the Razor's Edge (a crucifix powerbomb, inherited from his childhood wrestling idol Razor Ramon) and a release suplex slam called the Broken Arrow.[122] His former finisher was a rolling cutter called The Reckoning.[123] Priest now utilizes a sitout chokeslam called the South of Heaven as his finisher, which he had originally used during his time with Ring of Honor before using it again after joining The Judgment Day in 2022.[124]

During his time as a member of The Judgment Day following Edge’s departure, Martínez Jr. would begin to pay homage to his Puerto Rican heritage by incorporating spoken Spanish into his promos and refer to some of his nicknames in the language, such as “Señor Money In the Bank” while holding the Money In the Bank briefcase, and “El Campeón” during his reign as World Heavyweight Champion. After leaving The Judgment Day, he began to speak with a New York accent during his promos while still paying homage to his Puerto Rican roots.

Personal life

Martinez Jr. is a melophile, being heavily influenced by rock and heavy metal. He and his family have known and interacted with various music bands and personalities, like Bad Bunny, Dee Snider, and Eddie Ojeda.[125][126]

Martinez Jr. cites Pedro Morales, Scott Hall and The Undertaker as his inspirations in wrestling.[127][122][121]
