At WrestleMania 41, Dominik Mysterio captured the Intercontinental Championship by pinning Bron Breakker after delivering a decisive Frog Splash, overcoming challengers like Penta and Finn Balor. Despite this dramatic moment, the WWE Universe has been on edge, anticipating whether Finn Balor—the inaugural Universal Champion and leader of The Judgment Day—would eventually betray Mysterio as he once did Damian Priest. So far, Balor remains steadfast in supporting Dominik, defying expectations tied to the faction’s volatile history.
Ongoing Speculation Around Liv Morgan and Dominik’s Possible Babyface Shift
Fans have debated the potential for Dominik Mysterio and Liv Morgan to turn babyface, especially after the chorus of approval following Dominik’s WrestleMania win. However, Morgan’s injury in June 2025, sustained during her singles match with Kairi Sane, temporarily put her out of action. Without Morgan actively shielding him during promos, Dominik faced some boos from the crowd, though her previous presence helped soften the reception. With The Judgment Day’s recent expulsion of Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley, there is speculation WWE might unite Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio as a combined positive force.
Finn Balor’s Calculated Approach in Maintaining the Status Quo
Known for strategic precision, Finn Balor had harshly betrayed Damian Priest at SummerSlam 2024, mirroring how Priest had sabotaged Balor’s title opportunity at the prior year’s event. This history fuels rumors that Balor might ultimately aim to turn on Dominik at WrestleMania 42. Despite this possibility, Balor is not idle. He recently recruited Roxanne Perez to The Judgment Day, who now teams with Raquel Rodriguez to hold the Women’s Tag Team Championship, effectively replacing Morgan’s role within the faction. Meanwhile, Perez has been cultivating an on-screen romantic connection with Mysterio, presenting another layer of intrigue within the group’s dynamics.
The Role of Roxanne Perez in Undermining Bonds Within The Judgment Day
Roxanne Perez has taken deliberate steps to ingratiate herself with Dominik Mysterio, including small but symbolically significant gestures such as bringing him chicken tenders and gifting a Nintendo Switch 2 to play WWE 2K25. These actions have not gone unnoticed, as Liv Morgan even caught Perez displaying flirtatious behavior toward her on-screen boyfriend. Balor’s use of Perez suggests a subtle effort to destabilize the relationship between Dominik, Morgan, and Rodriguez, indicating internal faction tensions driven by Thompson’s plans.
The Judgment Day’s Dominance Across WWE Titles
As one of the most dominant groups on Monday Night RAW, The Judgment Day holds major titles across multiple divisions. Finn Balor and JD McDonagh are the reigning World Tag Team Champions, Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez control the Women’s Tag Team Championship, while Dominik Mysterio holds the Intercontinental Championship. This multifaceted control places the faction in a uniquely powerful position, reinforcing their role as a dominant heel force in WWE’s current landscape.
Liv Morgan’s Potential Return and Future Storylines
Before her injury, Liv Morgan had expressed a desire to challenge for the Women’s World Championship, claiming she was denied a rematch against Rhea Ripley following her loss on RAW’s Netflix debut. Additionally, she nearly initiated a rivalry with Nikki Bella to assert her standing as a top competitor on the red brand. These developments suggest Morgan could receive renewed momentum and a championship push upon returning to WWE television, further enriching the evolving faction narrative.
WWE’s Plans for The Judgment Day and Long-Term Faction Strategy
The current trajectory of The Judgment Day reflects WWE’s intention to maintain the faction’s unity for the foreseeable future. Instead of orchestrating another betrayal by Finn Balor against Dominik Mysterio, the company appears focused on building The Judgment Day into a long-lasting, iconic group, much like New Japan Pro Wrestling’s Bullet Club, which Balor originally founded during his tenure as Prince Devitt. Observers remain eager to see how Dominik Mysterio’s role within the faction will develop and whether Balor’s allegiance will hold firm amid growing internal pressures.
