Damian Priest and Lola Vice showed up together on the red carpet at the New York premiere of Netflix's animated film Steps, a rare public outing for the WWE couple outside the ring. The former World Heavyweight Champion is in the film too, voicing a character named Cracktor. Vice came along to the event, and the two posed for photographers before the screening. Priest sits in a cast that includes Ali Wong, Amanda Seyfried and Daniel Radcliffe. Steps reworks the Cinderella story from the angle of one of the stepsisters, and Netflix has it set for November 20.

Damian Priest takes on a voice role as Cracktor in Netflix's new animated film Steps

Priest's part in Steps is more than a quick name in the credits. He voices Cracktor, who Netflix describes as an intimidating character.

In an interview published by Netflix Tudum, Priest explained how he approached the role: “As WWE Superstars, we use our voices as an extension of our onscreen character.”

He added that he enjoyed bringing that energy to Cracktor and wanted the character to feel “intense and larger-than-life.”

The film gives Cinderella a new spin, but it doesn't retell the familiar story from her point of view. Ali Wong voices Lilith, one of Cinderella's stepsisters, and Stephanie Hsu plays her sister Margot.

Amanda Seyfried is Cinderella, while Daniel Radcliffe plays the Prince. In the story, Lilith takes the Fairy Godmother's wand and disrupts the royal ball, which leaves her teaming up with Cinderella to save the kingdom.

Director Alyce Tzue frames it around two very different sisters. Steps lands on Netflix on November 20.

Lola Vice reveals how her two-year friendship with Damian Priest eventually turned into a relationship

Vice and Priest started out as friends at WWE's Performance Center. Speaking to Denise Salcedo, Vice said they had known each other for two years before they began dating, and they made things public in 2025.

She also talked about admiring Priest as a wrestler and relating to his Puerto Rican background as a Cuban woman from Miami.

“He was always one of my favorite wrestlers actually because, number one, we share a similar culture,”Vice said. She recalled Priest giving her advice around a WWE Main Event match on Raw. Then the friendship moved past the training centre when she agreed to go to dinner with him.

Vice competes on Raw right now, while Priest is on SmackDown. So the Steps premiere put them side by side at a film event, with Priest in a voice role outside WWE.
