    And like a week after he was dumped by Judgement Day, Vince was given the boot, and they became more serious and no more spooky stuff
  • @evdomos
    Honestly, the purple and black wings with the new Alter Bridge theme made for a seriously cool version of Edge. It's nice the Judgement Day got to keep it and capitalize on it but it felt, primarily, like a sick version of Edge to me.
  • I still remember hating it back then, cause it felt too soon. Thankfully, JD picked themselves back up, and became stronger as a group.

    Now Dom and Rhea are injured 😢 speedy recovery for both of them
  • @_WF23
    Chris is really great with the questions.

    Honestly it turned out to be better without Edge. Balor was languishing & had nothing to do & this breathed new life into his character. Dominik is the real soul of the Judgment day & it is what made him too. Dominik's presence has helped Rhea the most & got her over. She's now the most popular person in that group. Damien under Edge would have just been a disciple but in this Judgement Day is a badass killer similar to what Batista was in Evolution. He's now the World Heavyweight Champion. This group has been a massive success, much more than anybody would have ever imagined.
  • He can look at it this way. Since Edge left Priest became WWE heavyweight Champion and the Team is one of the best Teams in WWE right now.
  • Interesting to hear. I thought maybe it was the play all along, for them to turn on Edge and take over. That angle is really what got the ball rolling with them IMO. The old vet trying to form a group, the group failing, and the young people forcefully taking control because they the older guy was holding them back and they were done with sitting back in respect (no offense to Edge the legend).
  • I do think Edge’s heel turn hurt the match with AJ Styles at WrestleMania 38. I agree with Edge that AJ should have won that match and then Edge could have turned heel after that to start the Judgement Day storyline.

    If Edge shaves his head, he will literally become HHH's twin brother.

    Feel like Judgment Day kicking him out was for the better considering if they didn't then it msy have been too similar to the Sami Bloodline stuff with a plan seemingly being a 1v1 match then over time teasing some sort of break up with less comedic moments. That and it may have been impossible for him to get booed although now I'm honestly interested in what a Judgment Day run would've looked like with Edge still in the group and then Dom
  • @LastSunrise1981
    This part of the interview explains even more why building new stars is important. Had WWE focused more on building up say Ziggler, Ali, Owens, or even Kofi, Judgement Day could have continued with Edge even today.
  • Judgement day really went from a staple I thought was nothing special, kinda lame, and would be forgotten with time to something I lowkey really enjoy now
  • Was really upset that we were robbed of one last final heel run with Edge; unlike most people who return and coast on their nostalgia, Edge at least put in the effort of trying something new. After JD, he just reverted back to a face legend who spun his wheels until his departure.
  • Edge who win fight Wrestlemania 41 Diego Ramirez or Dominik Mysterio Edge we need you WWE Edge need help Diego to win please Edge Bad Bunny
  • Edge is making a lot of points Ajand edge should have been a babyface feud
  • @dirk8449
    Well, Judgment Day is still here and strong for now. So its good to see that, atleast they weren't just wasting our time. I think JD is kinda lame, but i have grown a liking to them. I really do miss Mami though.
  • @MexicanRmz
    Judgment Day Edge felt like a final boss (unlike the Rock), his entrance at Wrestlemania proved this. I'm sure the character would've been epic with just more time.
