Impromptu title match, shock betrayal- 4 predictions for The Judgment Day at SummerSlam 2024

SummerSlam 2024 is just a few days away as The Biggest Party of the Summer heads to Cleveland this Saturday. While the show is the second-biggest PLE of the year, it will be extra important for The Judgment Day.

The dynamics of the faction could be flipped come Saturday. El Campeon, Damian Priest, will defend his World Heavyweight Championship against King Gunther. Although he has stood tall against The Ring General alone, Priest does have his friends in The Judgment Day in his playbook.

The love triangle between Dominik Mysterio, Rhea Ripley, and Liv Morgan will reach its climax as Mami takes on the Women's World Champion with Dom-Dom lurking at ringside.

Either way, SummerSlam can have significant ramifications for The Judgment Day, and here, we'll look at four predictions of what could transpire at The Biggest Party of the Summer.

#4. The Miz books an impromptu Tag Team Title match between Awesome Truth and The Judgment Day

The Miz, Cleveland's very own, has been confirmed as the host for SummerSlam 2024. The A-Lister may have certain privileges, which include booking impromptu matches during the show.

Awesome Truth could be cutting a promo before the Tag Team Champions, The Judgment Day's Finn Balor and JD McDonagh, interrupt the former champions. This could see The Miz book a title match between the two teams.

Balor and McDonagh won the title with some help from Liv Morgan. The Miz, agitated by the loss, could use his power to book a rematch and hopefully regain the titles.

#3. "The Wyatt Sicks" trash The Judgment Day's Clubhouse at SummerSlam

As one of the most prominent factions in WWE, The Judgment Day has its clubhouse backstage, exclusive to its members. It has become a focal setting in the group's off-ring segments, playing significant roles in storylines.

This past week on RAW, Liv Morgan desecrated the lounge and burned some souvenirs. Rhea Ripley boldly claimed that they would rebuild the clubhouse and Morgan would pay for her actions.

However, The Judgment Day's clubhouse could be left in ruins again as The Wyatt Sicks put the faction on notice. Uncle Howdy could trash the lounge, perhaps take out Carlito and JD McDonagh, sending a massive statement and setting the stage for a faction feud.

#2. Finn Balor costs Damian Priest the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam

One of the most tense angles brewing within The Judgment Day is the tumultuous relationship between Damian Priest and Finn Balor. From jealousy to disobedience and disrespect, there are several elements to this dynamic.

Firstly, Priest holds the title Balor has pursued relentlessly for years. Watching his friend carry the gold must agitate The Prince, who was once World Champion eight years ago. Secondly, El Campeon hasn't always been kind to the former NXT Champion.

In exchange, Balor also hasn't respected The Punisher's wishes, sticking his nose in Priest's business when it wasn't necessary. Either way, there is a certain degree of animosity and ill-will between the two that could lead to the implosion of The Judgment Day.

Not to mention, Priest has been built as a babyface in recent weeks against Gunther and fans have rallied behind his cause, hailing his character work.

At SummerSlam, The Prince could strike and help Gunther defeat Priest to win the World Heavyweight Championship. Balor and Priest would then feud with each other. The remaining members of The Judgment Day will add another intriguing dynamic as they choose their side.

#1. Dominik Mysterio betrays Rhea Ripley

Dominik Mysterio seemingly made his choice on the July 22 edition of RAW, breaking Liv Morgan's heart and reaffirming his loyalty to Rhea Ripley. However, there could be a shocking twist in the tale at SummerSlam.

It is worth noting that Jey Uso is pursuing Ripley, who is yet to reject the Leader of the Yeet Movement. Secondly, Dom-Dom was hardly a victim in the love triangle because there were occasions when he got intimate with Morgan.

Therefore, the former NXT North American Champion cannot be blindly trusted. He could stab Mami in the back, help Morgan retain the Women's World Title, and say those three little words she desperately wants to hear.
