The Judgment Day has been a consistently strong part of WWE programming for the past year and change, with Damian Priest, Rhea Ripley, Dominik Mysterio and Finn Balor all shining in spades. To no surprise, WWE has evidently noticed the excellent performances of the stable.
A WWE higher-up spoke to Fightful Select (subscription required but recommended) about each member of Judgment Day, praising their adaptability and ease to work with.
WWE has found Finn Balor “very easy” to work with, and he has handled various roles the company has needed him to fill over the last year.
Rhea Ripley showcased her willingness to improve and help get everyone else over by contributing as a manager, despite her knee issues that she’s spoken about in the past. Moreover, a longtime WWE staffer noted that it would have been easy for her to just be concerned about her creative surrounding the title.
The WWE higher-up also praised Damian Priest’s work ethic, and how everyone was comfortable for him to work a singles match with Bad Bunny at Backlash.
Additionally, the higher-up spotlighted Mysterio for doing a lot of media obligations. The report noted how WWE is testing him in the ring against different opponents and styles to get him accustomed to various scenarios.
WWE seems to be loving what Judgment Day is doing, so it looks like this group will be together for a long time, continuing to provide strong results on Raw and acting as top heels for a brand that needs them.
WWE tends to disband stables quickly, even when they are performing well, such as The Shield. But there are cases where they stay together, like The New Day. Either way, it will be interesting to see how Judgment Day progresses throughout the year and if they have a long-term future together.
