“Like anybody else, it’d be fun. Yes and no. Yes, in the sense of, I wouldn’t mind doing it. It’s something that, who doesn’t want to be a movie star? Having fun with that and creating something new. At my core, I’m a WWE superstar. This is all I’ve ever wanted to do with my life. While I could do something like that, I just can’t see myself not doing my gig now full-time,” Damian Preist said.
