Judgment Day Member Fought Backstage Against Joining The WWE Faction

The Judgment Day was formed in April 2022, with Edge, Damian Priest, and Rhea Ripley as its original members.

Two months later, Finn Balor joined the group, during which Edge was kicked out. It was followed by Dominik Mysterio joining them after betraying Edge and his father, Rey Mysterio, at Clash at the Castle PLE.

In 2023, JD McDonagh, who had been Balor’s longtime friend, joined the group.

Priest and Ripley were ejected from the faction after SummerSlam 2024, with Liv Morgan becoming the newest member. Carlito joined soon, followed by Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez.

After Carlito’s contract expired in mid-2025, he was removed from the group, while Balor was betrayed by his Judgment Day stablemates on the March 9, 2026, episode of Monday Night Raw.

The current iteration of the group includes Dominik Mysterio, Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, JD McDonagh, and Roxanne Perez.

Dominik Mysterio Refused To Join The Original Judgment Day

With his recent attack on Finn Balor, Dominik Mysterio has brought heat on himself from the WWE Universe. However, he might have other reasons for his betrayal than just Balor refusing to help him a week ago in his match against Penta.

Speaking on The Collection podcast, Mysterio also revealed the reason why he did not want to be a part of the original Judgment Day, claiming the group felt weird and hokey.

Man, I fought it for a long time. I don’t know. It felt weird and hokey, like the very beginning of it… Something happened where all four of us clicked, and I think that’s what kind of made it work because we all kind of clicked outside of the ring, and we were all riding together.

So, it all kind of transitioned to inside of the ring and man, it worked… There’s not one time in The Judgment Day where we haven’t had a championship, or all of us covered in gold, or constantly kicking people out to bring people in. It’s crazy. It’s insane. [H/T: Fightful]
