The tensions have been rising between The Judgment Day members Finn Balor and Damian Priest for the past several months. Meanwhile, at the soon-to-be-held WWE Money in the Bank premium live event, Priest is set to defend his World Heavyweight Title against Seth Rollins.
The match also carries significant stipulations. If Rollins loses, he won’t get another chance at the title until Priest is no longer the champion. However, if Priest loses the title, he will be ousted from his faction, The Judgment Day. Damian Priest mentioned that he doesn’t need The Judgment Day’s help to retain his title. He stated that the faction needs him more than he needs the faction. This statement has created more tension between him and Finn Balor, who questioned him about these remarks.
In the latest edition of WWE Raw, cracks in The Judgment Day became apparent when Seth Rollins had a segment with Finn Balor. Their interaction was interrupted by Damian Priest, who declared that nobody would interfere in their upcoming match at the Money in the Bank event.
This led Rollins to suggest they didn’t need to wait until Saturday if Priest felt that way. However, Balor attacked Rollins from behind, and despite Rollins initially shrugging him off, Balor continued the attack.
Priest pulled Balor off Rollins, but Rollins managed to take them both out. He hit Balor with a curb stomp. Priest recovered and laid Rollins out with South of Heaven before checking on Balor. This intervention by Priest created more tension between them, as Balor took a curb stomp from him.
After the backstage chaos, Damian Priest assisted Finn Balor and asked him to allow him to handle things alone at Money in the Bank. Finn agreed, giving him a suspicious look.
