This past Monday on WWE Raw in Seattle, the Judgment Day turned on Finn Balor and kicked him out of the group. Balor has since dropped a cryptic message on social media to break his silence since the shocking attack.
After Balor tried to talk some sense into Dominik Mysterio, things got heated between the former allies. Mysterio shoved Balor, who retaliated by hitting the Pele Kick.
Just when The Demon got the upper hand, JD McDonagh picked a side and attacked his mentor. Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez also took liberties by hitting Balor with kicks and punches. “Dirty” Dom finished things off by hitting two Frog Splashes on Balor.
Balor Breaks Silence After Judgment Day Betrayal
Nearly 24 hours after getting attacked and laid out by the Judgment Day, Balor finally commented on what happened via social media. The former WWE Universal Champion dropped a cryptic message, writing the number “1372” and uploading a blackout image.
Some fans tried to decipher the message, and it was the total number of days Balor was a part of Judgment Day. He joined the stable on the June 6, 2022 episode of Raw by helping Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley kick Edge out of the group.
Fast forward 1,372 days, and Balor was the latest member to get removed from Judgment Day.
Another interpretation of the message was a little complicated. One fan argued that 13 represents the lucky number for The Demon, seven being Balor’s jersey number during his time playing Gaelic football and two being from the “Too Sweet” gesture made by Bullet Club members.
Who Are The Original Members of Judgment Day?
Judgment Day was created by Edge on April 3, 2022, with Priest as the first WWE Superstar to join. They recruited Ripley a month later, with Balor joining in June. They subsequently kicked out Edge, who then started feuding with his former disciples.
Over the years, there have been additions and subtractions from the Judgment Day. Mysterio is now the longest-tenured member after Balor’s removal, followed by McDonagh. Other members, aside from Morgan and Rodriguez, are Carlito and Roxanne Perez.
Carlito was quietly removed after his contract wasn’t renewed by WWE on June 14, 2025. Perez wasn’t part of Monday’s segment due to an injury. She’s currently recovering from surgery, which removed a benign mass on her back that has been causing pain.
Balor vs. Mysterio Possible at WrestleMania 42
Before Mysterio lost the Intercontinental Championship last week and the Judgment Day broke up on Monday, Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer reported that Balor was set to turn into a babyface.
It happened on Raw, though the original plan was reportedly a match between the two stars at SummerSlam in August. However, Balor was getting babyface reactions, so WWE seemingly changed its plans.
Another interesting point to add is who could help Balor during his feud against Judgment Day. Mysterio will at least have McDonagh, so he’s going to need backup heading into WrestleMania 42. Perez is also another factor since Balor was the one who introduced her to the group.
