WWE could be making another change to Judgment Day.
The group has come a long way from its initial concept. It was originally led by Edge, who brought in Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley. Finn Balor replaced him, and they later added Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh to it.
Carlito has also been associated with the group in recent months. There was a change in the group again when Balor cost Priest his World Title against GUNTHER, while Dominik turned his back on Ripley by aligning with Liv Morgan and helping her beat Ripley to retain her Women’s World Title at SummerSlam. At Bad Blood, Raquel Rodriguez aligned with Morgan and is associated with the group.
During the latest episode of WrestleVotes Radio on SportsKeeda’s Backstage Pass Patreon, it was noted that there has been talk within WWE about Carlito leaving the group.
Joey Votes: “A couple of more nuggets that we can touch on is we are hearing discussions to potentially remove Carlito from the Judgment Day and get him back into a singles competitor, possibly a singles push…..”
WrestleVotes: “I think now, with the addition of Raquel Rodriguez to the Judgment Day, it started to get a little bit bloated. And I think if you have a street trash type gimmick for the Judgment Day where they’re kind of thugs and, you know, getting….rule breakers in that sort of environment, if you don’t toe the line of the entire group, or if you step out of line a little bit, or if you make a mistake, you’re going to pay for those mistakes. So I think you’re going to see Carlito here in the next couple of weeks, sort of give the Judgment Day a reason to want to excommunicate him from the group. And I think he deserves a singles run.”
Joey Votes later added, “There’s no timetable. We haven’t heard much. I’d expect by the end of the year, maybe a singles run by Carlitos in the fold, but we do know that those plans have been discussed to separate him from the Judgment Day.”
