Post-show press conferences and media scrums have been serving as an open forum for fans and media persons to shoot some out-of-the-box questions at their favorite superstars in wrestling. It was no different at last night’s post-Money in The Bank press conference. It was Damien Priest who had to face an off-beat question after clinching an impressive win at the Money in The Bank PLE.

The Judgement Day member beat out the crowd’s favorite LA Knight to claim the briefcase after an intense ladder at 02 Arena in London. While the new Mr. Money in The Bank was busy reshuffling plans in his mind regarding which title to snatch next, he was clearly in an elated mood post the victory while sitting for the media interactions. But a journalist turned out spoilsport asking about Bad Bunny’s potential alliance in his faction.

WWE is currently undergoing a phase of massive implosion in factions. The Judgement Day is also rumored to welcome new members soon. Also, considering the potential strife that might exist between Finn Balor and Priest following their Money in The Bank mishap, one of the two men might be kicked out and replaced by a new member.

A media representative couldn’t hold back his curiosity to know if that new member can be the Puerto Rican singer Bad Bunny by any chance. Priest instantly shut the idea down, as there is still some bad blood between him and Bad Bunny after their feud which resulted in a match at Backslash which Priest lost.

The 40-year-old noted, ”Do we really got to talk about this guy right now? Who let this guy in? Look, that’s not a question for me if Bad Bunny’s going to come back. I don’t know. That’s a question for him. As far as joining the Judgment Day, you have a better shot at joining the Judgment Day, which means zero [chance].”

There is, however, another potential member who can jump ship to join Rhea Ripley, and Damien Priest at Judgement Day.

Bayley teased joining Judgement Day through her later tweet

The star in question is none other than the former Woman’s SmackDown Champion Bayley. She had hard luck last night, coming short of capturing the briefcase in the Women’s MiTB ladder match. But it seems like the 34-year-old has been eyeing Judgement Day as her next destination.

During her match tonight, ring announcer Samantha Irvin did a botch addressing Bayley as a representative of The Judgement Day. But Bayley herself posted a sneaky tweet regarding this hours later.

She wrote, ‘Maybe I’m Da new Mami’

Bayley perhaps sets out to take Rhea Ripley’s spot on the faction. However, as of now, she is still with Damage CTRL and there is still no official word on her stable change.
