Cody Rhodes has managed to make his feud with Dominik Mysterio, what should be a total one-sided rivalry, feel like a big deal, if only for the anticipation of Dom getting what’s coming to him.

Rhodes negging Mysterio Monday by putting over the rest of Judgment Day was a great touch, as was the six-man as a continuation of Dominik getting some shots in on Cody without Rhodes ever making contact with his Money in the Bank opponent. As Corey Graves noted, Dom-Dom has a big receipt coming from the American Nightmare.

The six-man with Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn joining Cody was a great piece of business, with everyone playing their parts perfectly, including and especially Rhea Ripley, who continues to be the best part of the Judgment Day.

Cody looked like the superstar he is, getting the final hot tag and putting Damian Priest away to finish off Judgment Day and pick up the win, which also has to be an ominous sign for Dominik. Really fun match to close out the night.
