The duo of Damian Priest and Edge gained a new member at WrestleMania Backlash when Rhea Ripley assisted Edge in defeating AJ Styles. On tonight’s Raw, Ripley explained why she joined ‘The Judgement Day’. Rhea would go on to defeat Liv Morgan in singles competition and she has a new theme song.

Immediately following that, Damian Priest and Finn Balor went one-on-one, but Edge speared Balor to put an end to the match. The Judgement Day member then beat down Balor and AJ. Edge also sported a new haircut.
