WWE star officially joins Judgement Day

Finally earning his spot in the Judgment Day, it was the newly assigned leader of the group who would be the one to officially anoint him.
Tonight’s show kicked off with Judgment Day coming face to face with their WarGames foes in an in-ring segment.
Ahead of their Tag Team Championship match in the main event, Cody Rhodes was mocking Judgment Day, asking where their ‘Mami’ Rhea Ripley was, there was an intriguing reply.
Damian Priest said that he was the leader of Judgment Day, which was met by quizzical looks from his fellow members.

Later in a backstage segment, Rhea Ripley addressed the comments by Priest as she began a bit sarcastic before pivoting to note that for the purposes of WarGames, which she obviously won’t be part of, it was advantageous to assign a ‘leader’, and she believed Priest was the right choice.
With Ripley co-signing that Priest should be the leader for the group through WarGames, Dominik Mysterio and Finn Balor ended up agreeing despite not looking too pleased at first.
However as his first act as leader, Ripley insisted that JD McDonagh, who Priest has had problems with, become a full member of the group and gave him a duffle bag.

In a later backstage segment, Priest approached JD McDonagh and gifted him what appeared to be a very decorated leather jacket to welcome him to the Judgment Day.
While Finn Balor approached and congratulated McDonagh, he encouraged JD to get out of the arena ASAP as to not be caught still there by Adam Pearce given the earlier edict that the members not in the main event were banned from the arena for the main event.
Finn Balor and Damian Priest put the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship on the line in the main event against Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso.
