...maybe.

To pull back the curtain a little, this article was devised and constructed shortly before Edge was usurped by Finn Bálor as the leader of The Judgment Day, so this entry is subsequently being retooled after the fact. It's down the promise and possibility of 'The Prinxe' overseeing the group instead of Edge, though the jury's out on how different it'll actually be with the same people scripting the sh*te.

There were a multitude of problems with the group from the off, and it's uncertain if booting its biggest star out can solve them. Edge was rotten spouting all his vague legalese, goth-adjacent nonsense and cheap heat garbage, but it sounded no better from the mouths of Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest. A middling win/loss record did nothing for their credibility either, and WWE's inner strife over Cody Rhodes' injuries were revealed in the coup - Edge had guided the group to their biggest victory 24 hours before the apprentices overthrew the master.

Bálor's version will confirm if the whole thing sinks or swims once and for all, but Edge in particular had been drowning from the off. That explains all the blue at least.
