6. “Judgment Day Is Nothing Without Edge”

Admittedly, this is more a personal entry that sees yours truly take a shot at himself.

Time to fess up: This guy scoffed when Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest turned on original leader Edge in 2022. Finn Bálor was installed as his replacement, and 'Mr. Brainiac' over here figured that was curtains for Judgment Day as an ongoing concern that'd make waves on WWE TV.

Yeah, that didn't happen. Instead, JD has gone from strength to strength as a unit and become one of the most essential acts on Raw. Ripley is more over than ever as 'Mami', Dominik Mysterio can barely get a word out because fans despise him, Bálor has been some workhorse, and Priest currently holds Money In The Bank.

This fan, several of his friends, and many online refused to admit that punting Edge from Judgment Day was the best thing that could've happened to the faction. People just didn't want to boo Adam Copeland anyway, so the whole thing might've died a slow death had WWE not taken decisive action.
