10 Unlikely Wrestling Faction Members That Totally Worked

3. Carlito (Judgment Day)

Judgment Day has evolved multiple times since Edge debuted the faction back in early-2022. Adam Copeland was ousted as leader, Finn Bálor joined Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley, then Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh signed on too. Since then, R-Truth has come and gone as a wannabe member, Liv Morgan has replaced Ripley, and Carlito has come over from the LWO.

How's that for a mix and match timeline?!

Carlito screwing over Rey Mysterio's LWO to become mates with Dominik was one thing. Thinking Mr. 'Caribbean Cool' would work as a full-on member of Judgment Day was another. WWE tried it on for size anyway in May, and had Priest doubt Carlito's credentials to their tight-knit club. Alongside Truth, Carlito brought levity to their segments.

Damian and Rhea have went off on their own as The Terror Twins, which left a gaping hole in the group Carly was thrilled to fill. He'd earned that with his work in backstage skits next to other JD members over the summer. It's slightly odd that he traded LWO for Judgment Day, but it's working out.
