Rhea Ripley was undoubtedly the glue that held The Judgment Day together during their times of discord. During her absence, Damian Priest‘s ego is at an all-time high during his reign as World Heavyweight Champion. This has caused much tension in the group, especially between El Campeon and Finn Balor.

The former Universal Champion posted a few photos of his appearance on the latest episode of Monday Night Raw. The first photo features him battering down Seth Rollins. In the next couple of photos, Damian Priest pulls him apart from the former World Heavyweight Champion as the two have an intense staredown. Balor captioned the photo, saying that this was simply the way it was.

The latest episode of Raw featured a segment involving Rollins, Balor, and Priest. During the segment, the former SHIELD member was paranoid that he was going to get jumped by members of The Judgment Day. Even the Irishman looked ready to pounce. However, the former Money in the Bank winner assured his challenger that there was no trap.

Despite this, things delved into chaos, and the former NXT Champion attacked the 38-year-old. This action highly upset the World Heavyweight Champion. He looked disappointed and had to stop Balor from attacking his challenger. The two stared at each other intensely, revealing cracks in their friendship.

Seth Rollins accuses Finn Balor of being jealous of Damian Priest and his World Heavyweight Championship

The latest episode of Raw featured Rollins coming out to welcome the audience to Monday Night Rollins. He talked about his upcoming match at Money in the Bank for the World Heavyweight Championship against Damian Priest. However, he was quickly interrupted by the World Tag Team Champion, Finn Balor.

Balor admitted to being in a really bad mood because everything was changing, and he blamed Seth Rollins for it. The former World Heavyweight Champion claimed that Priest was his own man who made his own decisions. He did not think that the Irishman was mad at the formerly known Punishment Martinez for changing. Rather, he was jealous of the champion for achieving a prize that he could not, referring to their matches over the summer of 2023 for the World Heavyweight Championship.

Before Balor could respond, Priest came out to address the situation, and Rollins’ statement was not brought up again. WWE has been teasing a potential rivalry between the two Judgment Day members for quite a while now. The group had seemingly made up after Priest put his hands on Balor at Backlash France.
