The Judgment Day has to be one of the most influential stables in the current WWE era. The faction includes notorious heels like Rhea Ripley, Dominik Mysterio, Finn Balor, and Damian Priest. Recently, the heels have been going through a rough patch, thanks to a number of internal on-stage conflicts.

But amidst these scripted disputes, Priest and Balor have revealed that they have nothing but respect for co-star Rhea Ripley.

On the latest episode of WWE’s The Bump, Damian Priest and Finn Balor discussed the events of Payback with host Jackie Redmond. During a rapid-fire segment, they were asked who the strongest member of The Judgment Day was.

Without any hesitation, both of them said it was Rhea Ripley. Priest said, “If you are talking pound to pound, it’s Rhea.” To this, Balor agreed, saying “Rhea is pretty powerful.” The unanimous agreement shows the respect the two have for Ripley. Since Edge was booted out of the faction, there hasn’t been a dedicated leader of the group. But fans of the faction are aware that Ripley is the mover and shaker of the team.

WWE has been dropping hints about a possible breakup in one of their major acts on Raw. While it was heavily hinted that the heel stable would break up at Payback, this doesn’t seem to have gone ahead. Instead, Priest and Balor, who seemed to be locking horns within the stable, proceeded to become the WWE Undisputed Tag Team Champions.

Hopefully, with Dominik establishing himself within the stable and Balor finally gaining the respect of Priest, the stable continues. While it’s unsure as to what exactly WWE has in store for The Judgment Day, it’s clear that fans are having the time of their life watching their antics.
