Man, what a week in the wrestling world, right? I’ve been following this Judgment Day storyline for a while now, and things just got really crazy. So, there I was, catching up on all the wrestling news, just like every other day. I started scrolling through my usual sources, you know, just to see what’s up. Then, bam! I saw this headline about WWE replacing Judgment Day.
First thing I did? I dove deep into the details. Apparently, this all started brewing after SummerSlam 2024. That event was a total game-changer. I watched it, and let me tell you, the tension was thick enough to cut with a knife. The Judgment Day basically imploded, starting with Dominik Mysterio’s shocking betrayal. Can you believe he sided with Liv Morgan? Against Rhea Ripley, no less! That was wild. It created all this chaos between Damian Priest and Finn Balor too.
So, after seeing all that, I went back and watched some older episodes of RAW. I noticed that, especially around September, things were getting tense between Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston, too. These guys were tag team champs, and you could see the cracks forming. They couldn’t even secure the titles, which was a big deal. It made me think, were they being set up as the replacements?
Then there’s the whole Edge situation. I dug up some dirt on what went down there. Rumor has it, Edge was the original leader of Judgment Day, right? Well, I read that he and the WWE bigwigs didn’t see eye-to-eye on the direction of the group. They wanted to go all supernatural, and Edge was like, “Nah, I’m out.” So, they basically kicked him out. And then, he had that big 25th-anniversary celebration in Toronto. Remember that?
- Step 1: I read the headline about Judgment Day being replaced.
- Step 2: I researched what happened at SummerSlam 2024 and Dominik’s betrayal.
- Step 3: I rewatched old RAW episodes, focusing on Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston.
- Step 4: I looked into why Edge left Judgment Day.
Putting it all together, it looks like WWE might have been planning this shake-up for a while. They dropped Judgment Day after 2009, and then brought in “Over the Limit” in 2010, then it became a SmackDown exclusive for a few years before they made all PPVs non-brand exclusive after 2007. I noticed they initially built up Judgment Day with Edge and Priest after WrestleMania, then added Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania Backlash. They were pushing them hard, but then this whole mess with Edge happened.
Honestly, it felt like a bit of a mess. One minute, Judgment Day was the big thing, the next, they were gone. Replacing them with Woods and Kingston? I don’t know. It felt sudden, and a little forced. But hey, that’s the WWE for you. Always keeping us on our toes!
In the end, I realized that keeping track of all these changes, all these little details, it’s like a puzzle. You gotta watch the shows, read the news, and then piece it all together. And even then, you never really know what’s gonna happen next in the wild world of wrestling.
