Lola Vice’s NXT Victory Sparks WWE Power Couple Buzz

At NXT Vengeance Day 2026, Lola Vice secured a win over Kelani Jordan in an NXT Underground match, marking her perfect 4-0 record in this format. The 27-year-old, who signed with WWE in 2022, shared her excitement on social media alongside her boyfriend, WWE star Damian Priest. This joint celebration has sparked conversations about their status as a WWE power couple.

Damian Priest’s Recent Shift and Tag Team Ambitions

Once part of The Judgment Day faction on RAW, Damian Priest has since transitioned to SmackDown, forming a new alliance with R-Truth. Together, they won a Tag Team Turmoil match on SmackDown, earning a shot at the WWE Tag Team Championships held by Solo Sikoa’s MFT faction. This recent success positions Priest as a key competitor across WWE’s blue brand, complementing Vice’s rising NXT profile.

The Origin of Lola Vice and Damian Priest’s Relationship

Lola Vice recently opened up about how she and Damian Priest began dating during an interview with Denise Salcedo. Vice explained that she had admired Priest for a long time, appreciating their shared Latino heritage—he is Puerto Rican from the Bronx, and she is Cuban from Miami. The pair maintained a friendship for two years before Priest invited her to dinner at the WWE Performance Center, which led to their relationship.

“We were always friends, and I always admired him. He was always one of my favorite wrestlers actually because, number one, we share a similar culture. He’s Puerto Rican from the Bronx and I’m Cuban from Miami. We have that Latino background, and I always felt like he represented and mixed in being Hispanic in WWE in the best way I’ve seen. And then nothing. We were always friends for two years. I did a WWE Main Event match at RAW, and I remember he was there giving me advice. I actually met him at the PC and then one day I was just agreeing to go to a dinner with him and the rest is history.”
