Edge created The Judgment Day by recruiting Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley. The villainous stable didn’t hesitate for a bit while replacing The Rated R Superstar with Finn Balor. JD welcomed Dominik Mysterio into the fold by manipulating him into turning against Rey Mysterio at Clash at the Castle.
The group, so far, has focused on intimidating the RAW roster. The Judgment Day recently won their feud with The O.C. (AJ Styles, Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson, and Mia Yim). Despite the success, JD are yet to enter a championship program on the red brand.
During a recent interview with The Archive of B-Sox, Damian Priest talked about whether The Judgment Day intended on winning championships in WWE. According to Priest, the group doesn’t need titles to stay relevant in the promotion.
“How do you become a focal point of the show not being a champion? That makes you just that much more valuable, and I think that’s where we’re at right now. Let’s make this show revolve around us. Let’s be the main thing on this show, without even having championships.”
Priest is set to tag with Balor against The Street Profits (Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins) on WWE RAW tonight. It remains to be seen if JD will get the win over one of the most popular tag teams on the red brand.
