A few days ago, Rhea Ripley was forced to vacate the WWE Women’s World Championship because of an injury to her right arm. This was confirmed by the wrestler herself on last week’s edition of Monday Night Raw, where she ended her massive 380-day reign. And at the moment, it is unknown when she will return to action.

And while the Women’s roster will feel her absence, the Judgment days seem to be in crisis mode. Damian Priest seems to be turning on his stable mates. With such a development, it seems like the WWE might bring another female superstar to the group. At least according to a renowned pro wrestling personality.

The Judgment Day to be complete again after Rhea Ripley injury?

In the latest edition of the Busted Open Podcast, Dave LaGreca and Bully Ray talked about The Judgment Day and Liv Morgan. And it was during this conversation that LaGreca came up with a very interesting theory. He proposed a scenario wherein the WWE makes Liv Morgan a part of The Judgment Day. This could already materialize after the brief segment on Monday Night RAW between Dominik Mysterio and Liv Morgan. He said, “We talked about bully is what if you know, Liv Morgan takes the place of Rhea Ripley in Judgment Day. And then I saw that stare between Dom and Liv. And there was no expression on their faces. You couldn’t read their faces. There wasn’t a smile, there wasn’t a frown, they were just looking at each other. Very intriguing”

He further added that if Morgan had won the Women’s Championship instead of the original winner Becky Lynch in the main event, it could’ve led to a storyline between Morgan and Mami. “There’s something there with the Judgment Day, okay. Because now that she’s a champion all, I’m thinking about is the visual of all the gold that Judgment Day would be holding. And then obviously you have Liv Morgan in the place of Rhea and then instantly you have a classic confrontation between Rhea and Liv.”

That’s quite an interesting theory, to say the least. But while Liv Morgan may join the Judgment Day, the WWE will have to look for another replacement as it seems like Dominik Mysterio too has picked up an injury.

The Judgment Day is going through a somewhat difficult time. Even though Damian Priest is the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Rhea Ripley had to vacate the Women’s World Championship., Finn Balor is no longer Tag Team Champion along with Priest. And, in addition, another injury concern has plagued the faction. This Monday, on Monday Night RAW, Dominik Mysterio appeared with one of his arms in a sling and could not be a part of the match in which he was scheduled to participate. Sean Ross Sapp later confirmed on Fightful Select that the injury was real. For now, there is no return date for Mysterio.

Dominik Mysterio was removed from WWE’s live shows last week in the United Kingdom and Ricochet replaced him. Now the reason is public and we’ll see if he can fight again soon. What do you think? Should the WWE add new members to The Judgment Day? What did you make of the suggestion of pairing up Morgan and Mysterio? Let us know in the comments.
