WWE Superstar Dominik Mysterio recently proved his in-ring worth by defeating Damian Priest in a singles match with the help of his crew. However, as Dom elevated his status, a Judgment Day member lost his cool when he was told that Mysterio was better than him. Moreover, Finn Balor almost started a backstage brawl because of this comment.
The War Raiders won the number-one contenders tournament for the World Tag Team Championship last week. When Finn Balor and JD McDonagh interrupted the RAW Talk segment, Cathy Kelley was interviewing the duo. The Judgment Day members cracked jokes at their future opponents and reminded them that they were the ones who ran the tag team division.
As they were leaving, however, the War Raiders clapped back, saying that Balor was just upset that Dominik Mysterio could do everything he couldn’t. Realizing that The Prince was about to blow up, JD asked him to calm down. However, Balor said he was done calming down and charged for a fistfight before WWE security stopped him.
Notably, Balor had congratulated Dom for his win against Priest, but immediately took JD to the side and asked him why he aided Mysterio. While McDonagh saw no problem assisting Dirty Dom, The Prince said they should focus on defending their titles instead.
This was a sharp turn of his mindset, as he was more concerned about taking care of Damian Priest than his title defense just a week ago. This frustration emerged from Balor despite Dominik Mysterio losing the advantage he had after The Punisher defeated him to become the number one contender to challenge Gunther.
It would be interesting to see if Balor becomes responsible for causing yet another implosion in Judgment Day.
