McLove entered the ring first, withstanding one wrestler's attack on his crotch because he has "no willy", but was soon attacked by Father Damo, who brought the whistle he stole from Benson. Father Stone served as a special guest referee, performing a three-count so slow that one wrestler kicked out after two.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newstalk.com/Eoin-McLove-Father-Damo-and-Father-Stone-all-turned-up-at-a-Dublin-wrestling-event|title=Eoin McLove, Father Damo and Father Stone all turned up at a Dublin wrestling event|publisher=[[Newstalk]]|last=Kelly|first=Daniel|date=1 March 2016|access-date=1 March 2016}}{{Dead link|date=October 2019 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> In 2017, Rooney appeared as Father Damo in the video for [[Brave Giant]]'s "The Time I Met the Devil", which follows him on the way to give Mass after a night of alcohol and sex.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.dailyedge.ie/father-damo-brave-giant-3313163-Mar2017/|title=Here's what Father Damo is up to, 21 years after he appeared on Father Ted|newspaper=[[TheJournal.ie|The Daily Edge]]|date=29 March 2017|access-date=30 March 2017}}</ref>
