![]() His first match was nearly two years ago to the day against Seth Rollins at SummerSlam. Dominik is only two years into his wrestling career and he has been cutting his teeth in front of live audiences since day one. While efforts to get Dom to join The Judgment Day may not have been entirely genuine, it wasn’t for a lack of admiration. Attempts to recruit young Dominik never really flourished into anything more substantial than previous efforts to divide and conquer the Mysterios. So for me, it’s perfect timing.”įor much of their feud with the Mysterios, The Judgment Day have focused on trying to separate father and son. Like, it’s the first time we’ve ever interacted on TV and it’s happening now during his anniversary in WWE. It is a big deal and I love that I’m doing this now. Although we’re feuding, I know how special this is. So, seeing him throughout all these years and then now being able to be a part of that, it’s special. “What he’s has done, and especially for the Latin community, is something that I still strive for and work hard at, you know, just representation and what not. Especially throughout his 20th anniversary show at Madison Square Garden. Given the history between Edge and Rey Mysterio, the shift of focus to the Mysterio’s made all the sense in the world and was always going to be used as a catalyst to bring Rated R Superstar back into the fold.Įven though he spent the majority of their rivalry dishing out severe punishment to the former World Champion, Priest told me on the Bleav in Pro Wrestling Podcast that getting to work with Rey Mysterio was a really special time. Once he was out of the picture, the group turned their attention to a future Hall of Famer and his son. The Judgment Day’s attack on Edge was one that left the WWE Hall of Famer out of action for several weeks. ![]() If it’s about Finn, Rhea and I will do that for him.” If it’s about me, they’re gonna do that for me. If today this is about Rhea, we’re gonna have her back a hundred percent and make sure it’s about Rhea. We have to be this way for it to be successful, for it to work out the way we want it to be. “Who is this about right now? Let’s support that one person. The focus moving forward, will be on The Judgement Day as a whole. Edge needed to be dealt with and he got what was coming to him. I had a chance to catch up with Damian Priest during the SummerSlam media tour a few weeks back and he said their betrayal was simple. It’s a story arc that probably would have played out a bit better over time, but the powers that be ( at the time) determined it was best for Edge to return to being a babyface post-haste and that left Damian Priest, Finn Balor and Rhea Ripley to pick up the ball and run with The Judgement Day concept all on their own. At least, that’s the story for their abrupt betrayal of the Rated R Superstar and sure, I’ll buy that. In reality, they were there to better serve his interests and help accomplish his own personal goals. Edge recruited Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley into The Judgment Day under the guise that they would grow and flourish under his tutelage. When the group first formed, it was very clear that their universe centered around one man. It may sound a bit cheesy, but the new look Judgment Day have quite literally adopted a philosophy straight out of Alexandre Dumas’ classic novel The Three Musketeers. Edge is rumored to take place at the premium live event in Cardiff, Wales.All for one and one for all. ![]() This will be Edge’s first match on the Red Brand since his bout against Randy Orton on February 1, 2021, and his first match on television since his match against Seth Rollins on the Septemepisode of “SmackDown” at Madison Square GardenĪccording to PWInsider, Edge is advertised for all episodes of “WWE Raw” leading to Clash at the Castle on September 3. “You want to try and end my career in my hometown? You wanna test me like that, Priest? There’s going to be a point in the match where you look up and I’m gonna say, ‘son, you don’t know the mistake you made.’ I’ll see you in Toronto, kid.” ![]() “Do you have a set to leave your gothic bookends at home and face me one-on-one? When you first started in WWE, who did you call? Who was always there when you called for advice? When I had the idea for Judgment Day, it was a no-brainer – you, myself & Rhea Ripley let’s do it! You tore it apart. ACCEPTS challenge for a one-on-one match on #WWERaw in two weeks in Toronto! #RAWTalk /F3eY8qoFRY- WWE August 9, 2022
