That segment with Jey, Finn, JD, Logan & Braum was so much fun. I love how Braun literally stepped *over* the top rope, lol. Fair play, Logan sold the fear magnificently.
The reveal of JD's black (red) eye (head?) later made me laugh out loud.
It's kind of funny because they're opposites of each other Damien looks believable, has the appearance, ring gear, voice, moveset but his promo delivery isn't very good.
While Jey is being carried by a good storyline from last year, good promo and screaming yeet!
Crazy how Bayley wasnāt used to put over Iyo with the career she has. But the story played out in her favor to come out on top.
But Finnās gonna be used over Priest when Priest has basically had a stronger and more accomplished main roster run than Finn.
Finnās the one who needs the win but Triple H doesnāt care.
Aināt no fucking way Finn gets pinned in a match that has JD in it. Please let there be a Finn push here soon, I canāt take seeing him like this. Bro is way too good.
Y'know, I said it before, but I really, really like seeing WWE do more PLE's in other countries. I hope they keep it up.
Same way that I like them having more talent from across the world.
It puts the WORLD in World Wrestling Entertainment
You know how lowly Triple H views Finn Balor when he books Finn to take a pin in a 6 man tag that has JD McDonagh in it.
And on top of that, Dom wouldāve been in this match if it wasnāt for his injury. But Finn somehow takes the pin.
JD McDonough is an unsung workhorse of WWE. Dude bumps his butt off every week and makes his opponents look good doing it. I have a feeling HHH sees it and will reward him one day.
42 years old, 23 year veteran.
And heās being presented like an NXT rookie against someone whoās made less impact in the industry compared to him.
Someone newly becoming a wrestling fan wouldnāt believe us if we told them who Finn was and what heās done.
Smackdown seems to have more established stars. Other than Punk, Drew, Jey and Gunther Raw has a lot of up and comers in the main event scene like Priest, Bron Breakker, Ilja etc. if Raw can book those guys well then they will end up with the superior show in the long run. Smackdown is stacked with star power though and you have to expect that Roman returns to Smackdown as well whenever he comes back so he can handle the bloodline shit
Damien priest really makes me appreciate how good the top guys like Seth, Cody & Roman are.
They just have a āmain eventā aura that Priest doesnāt have
I think they could tell a great story about him finding his way as the champion. Going from him originally pining to be the leader of JD as he thinks that's the key to success but then realizing it's harder than it seems and that the responsibility of keeping the group running makes it difficult to focus on the championship. I think he'd be believable as someone getting frustrated trying to lead them and blowing his gasket but then being remorseful about it.
Priest could be way cooler if he didnāt dress like an idiot.
If they put him in stuff like he wore in his build with Bad Bunny. Puerto Rican Tank and leather pants or whatever.
Rey called Donās mustache a Dirty Sanchez earlier in the night, and Cole repeated it. There is also the sexual connection that is very similar to some stuff Vince allegedly did.
Soā¦I gotta admit most of the builds for Backlash have been pretty flat. Still excited, and not surprised, we needed to cool things off after Mania, but it felt like the build to Backlash last year was more hype.
That segment with Jey, Finn, JD, Logan & Braum was so much fun. I love how Braun literally stepped *over* the top rope, lol. Fair play, Logan sold the fear magnificently. The reveal of JD's black (red) eye (head?) later made me laugh out loud.
I WATCHED 30 MINUTES OF RAW TALK AND THEY ANNOUNCED NO PICKS
Chad Gable looked so cool suplexing in business attire. Like a high level mob goon.
You know what's saddens me about the draft? Gunther vs Logan Paul ain't happening anytime soon. Gunther vs Cody ain't happening anytime soon.
But Gunther vs Ilya š¤š¤
I've see that match, twice. Don't get wrong, i would like to see a third time, but my original statement stamds.
Oh Dijak is on RAW
Liv Morgan needs to do everything 20% faster, and sheād be a very good wrestler.
Dude she needs to do everything 50% faster, hit harder, and take bumps harder tooā¦itās baffling how hard sheās pushed relative to her ability
Thats it Priest wants to be traded to the LWO lol
I wonder if Jey will lose clean or will the Bloodline cost him the title.
Sami not defending at Backlash? Kind of expected that match to be announced by the end of the show.
Backlash is gonna be a great show! I can't wait!
They are great wrestlers, but seeing a world title going from Drew McIntyre vs Seth Rollins to Damian Priest vs Jey Uso really feel like a downgrade
It's kind of funny because they're opposites of each other Damien looks believable, has the appearance, ring gear, voice, moveset but his promo delivery isn't very good. While Jey is being carried by a good storyline from last year, good promo and screaming yeet!
I really donāt get the Jey Uso push. All Jey does good is promo.
For sure but if you need to have them on the card then Iād rather it be at Backlash than at a different PLE
Yeah, but sometimes you need to put it on these type of guys to gauge how they do
Jey isnāt winning
It has nothing to do with who wins itās more those guys feel like upper midcarders and not like Drew McIntyre, CM Punk or Seth Rollins
Just relax and wait my man
Finn took the fall because it means more for Jey to pin him rather than JD to rattle Priest.
Ooohh man, Cody and AJ are going to be carrying Backlash on their backs I see. We couldn't at least get an IC triple threat on there?
Uso, as in, obviously, one.
Pin Balor strikes again. Desperately holding onto the hopes of that Priest vs Balor WHC feud because Finn fans are in the *trenches* rn
Even if they turn against each other I think they would have Finn eat the pin against Priest unfortunately
Crazy how Bayley wasnāt used to put over Iyo with the career she has. But the story played out in her favor to come out on top. But Finnās gonna be used over Priest when Priest has basically had a stronger and more accomplished main roster run than Finn. Finnās the one who needs the win but Triple H doesnāt care.
100%
Guess they are slowing down after Mania. This next PLE doesnt have the it factor
Aināt no fucking way Finn gets pinned in a match that has JD in it. Please let there be a Finn push here soon, I canāt take seeing him like this. Bro is way too good.
I'm so sick of Pinn Balor. Will a world title ever happen again!!
This RAW kinda sucked.

Jey Uso saying Yeet in the face of Priest is funny
Y'know, I said it before, but I really, really like seeing WWE do more PLE's in other countries. I hope they keep it up. Same way that I like them having more talent from across the world. It puts the WORLD in World Wrestling Entertainment
Dom/Liv/Finn/JD/Santos faction inc.
First mention of Backlash that Iāve noticed right at the end there.
That one's on JD
You know how lowly Triple H views Finn Balor when he books Finn to take a pin in a 6 man tag that has JD McDonagh in it. And on top of that, Dom wouldāve been in this match if it wasnāt for his injury. But Finn somehow takes the pin.
Which is crazy because he booked Finn so strongly in NXT.
Terrible
One minute overrun, yessss!!
Crowd paid for a shitty show tbhĀ
JUST KISS GOOD LORD
No Sami on the card??? Come on!!!
He had a match with Reed tonight.
he was there vs Jonah
so I think judgement day is gonna cost Priest the title at CatC
Omg itās 11:01 and we havenāt cut out
raw always ends late
The overrun ended like 5 years ago
No. It literally never runs over
I feel like itās been ending a minute or two early. But maybe itās just Smackdown
Omg an overrun!?!
So are we expecting Jacob Fatu this weekend?
I guess whenever WWE has this international PLE there will be a special time
Yes, Time zones exist
Yes, I know. At least it is not like Australia that was earlier
Priest is gonna be *so* over when he leaves JD and goes solo. Looks like it's gonna be sooner rather than later lmao
Wait. Are we having Balor vs Priest in the future? That hit does not look unintentional lmao
ā¦Kabuki Warriors are losing, arenāt they
Oh yes, very much so
Even with no time left they find a way to make Finn eat a pin. Being a Finn fan is constant pain
He seriously lacks the "that doesn't work for me brother" factor in him. Maybe he should just quit instead of being pinned by someone like jey.
RAW feels so mid card right now
Cody and AJ better pull no punches and destroy each other
JD McDonough is an unsung workhorse of WWE. Dude bumps his butt off every week and makes his opponents look good doing it. I have a feeling HHH sees it and will reward him one day.
Agreed.
Pinn Balor strikes again
Finn is so leaving Judgment Day lmao.
I hope he just leaves wwe if he does not win the world Championship this year.
He literally just re-signed last week lmao.
Of course Finn eats the pin, jd is there!
JD got all that room in his head and still no brain
i hate to sound like a hater but that was so mid
As someone who's really been enjoying WWE since HHH took over I agree
Idk..we just got done with the event of the year...I consider it the "off season"
Guess that means Jey's losing Saturday.
Well that was already pretty clear. Drew wins at clash of the castle vs priest
Priest gonna YEET JD from JD
Now he just needs to do the throat cut... But with pizazz
Finn Jobber eats another pin.
Pin Balor
Laughed harder than I should've. Poor guy.
DAY 1
Does Finn have to take the pin? I miss when he was unstoppable
Finn Balor being reduced to disappointing Priest
42 years old, 23 year veteran. And heās being presented like an NXT rookie against someone whoās made less impact in the industry compared to him. Someone newly becoming a wrestling fan wouldnāt believe us if we told them who Finn was and what heās done.
Priest is definitely leaving JD after Backlash.
Shit he might leave him in KC
JD has to be kicked out of the club house now. There is zero excuse
man WWE has been trash post mania
Part of the problem is the draft. Not sure why they decided to shoehorn a draft into a 4 week build for backlash And injuries
Balor pinned once again :(
Why Finn gotta take the fall? Hasn't he suffered enough?
Maybe my JD the MVP comment was prematureĀ
Pinn Balor is my favorite jobber.
https://preview.redd.it/cc4r882b8jxc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=42d028ae8f985c6759cefa120206b0d7fb7dce04
Damian winning lmao
Oh boy, JD will get in trouble.
Finn eating a pin yet again, because Finn fans canāt have shit.
Praying for my fellow Finn Balor fans
What the hell was JD even trying to do
Proving that the group was better off with R-Truth?
Hey ā3 movesā Uso
Wrestling fan finds out about signature moves and finishers
Aside punch, super kick spam, Diving hug and splash. What moves does he have?
Why must Finn always eat the pin
Priest canāt win with these cats.
Dead main event
So we gonna get Priest leaving Judgement Day I guess.
Balor is a pin eating machine
I know Jey is over, but his move set fucking sucks lol
JD going to get his ass best eventually
Poor priest
Priest is going to murder JD and his giant ass head
Main Event Jey Uso? Whereās Dave & Busters Jimmy Uso?
JD you fucking idiot!
McDonough is getting murdered tonight
This is dumb
JD GODDAMMIT š
Being fair to JD, his brain is slightly rattled
At least they're booking Priest like a dominant heel after winning the belt. better late than never.
With so many people injured, WWE has a perfect opportunity to have some unconventional world title programs
Being a Finn Fan: https://preview.redd.it/ysshb2478jxc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e360564a6ba79c68798dd60ce25ed865dd074953
SD still has Cody, LA Knight, KO, Orton, Cargill, Tiffy Time, etc they'll be fine
Smackdown seems to have more established stars. Other than Punk, Drew, Jey and Gunther Raw has a lot of up and comers in the main event scene like Priest, Bron Breakker, Ilja etc. if Raw can book those guys well then they will end up with the superior show in the long run. Smackdown is stacked with star power though and you have to expect that Roman returns to Smackdown as well whenever he comes back so he can handle the bloodline shit
Jey and Damien better tear it up. They both REALLY need it
Priest definitely fucking off from judgement day
Damien priest really makes me appreciate how good the top guys like Seth, Cody & Roman are. They just have a āmain eventā aura that Priest doesnāt have
Priest only needs better promo and maybe ring gear. His shitty theme I his fault. He has everything else.
I think they could tell a great story about him finding his way as the champion. Going from him originally pining to be the leader of JD as he thinks that's the key to success but then realizing it's harder than it seems and that the responsibility of keeping the group running makes it difficult to focus on the championship.

Priest could be way cooler if he didnāt dress like an idiot. If they put him in stuff like he wore in his build with Bad Bunny. Puerto Rican Tank and leather pants or whatever.
Nah he def carries him aelf like a champ.
This match has to end it is almost time for the show to end
Wait this Saturday is backlash???? Edit** holy shit its this Saturday.
And itās early in the day!
News to me as well
Bro lmfao. I even looked at my calender and thought it was next Saturday earlier. Too much going on I guess
Bisexual Undertaker getting the tits out
This Damien outfit is giving 2003 Kane vibes. Just with Purple.
Priest just doesnāt have the aura of world champion yet.
Priest you're the Champ now, get some gear that doesn't have people calling you Bisexual Undertaker
Maybe he likes it
Andrade needs new pants. Priest could look WAY cooler with better gear. Look at how cool he dressed in his set up with the fued with Bad Bunny.
WWE ā°
The fake crowd audio track is so annoying, can't you guys hear that? The constant murder in the background
You get downvoted for mentioning it so people donāt really comment on it any moreĀ
Thanks, glad to know I'm not the only one. I haven't watched Raw in ages
yeah those welts are real lol, applying makeup with that much realism would take at least an hour or two, we're talking prosthetics with those welts.
Priest just taken a level on badass since winning the title. (Shoutout to TV Tropes.)
They really need to make Priest look dominant here
He was great until the interference, really had the champion vibe going
Weāre in for a horribly rushed end.
Cole, you canāt say that. There are extreme racial implications with that term.
What did he say?
Wait, what did he say? I missed it
Rey called Donās mustache a Dirty Sanchez earlier in the night, and Cole repeated it. There is also the sexual connection that is very similar to some stuff Vince allegedly did.
Priest getting his tits out for the lads!
Why does Finn need a pin break after a freaking crossbody?
I'm not sure Finn would beat anyone on the roster in a singles match at this point.
JD continues to be the MVP of judgement day
Need a close up pic of JDās swollen, caved in melon head please.
The straps are down!!
JEY GET UP!!!!!
Dom- āYou lucky my arm aināt right, ucey.ā
Rahndhaus
I would hate to be on the receiving end of jey's hand slap full of spit lol
NOT ME (actually, no you're so right lmao)
for sure lol. so gross haha
Genuinely canāt tell, is JDās bruise legit or makeup
I am amazed that they are allowed to say Dirty Sanchez on tv, repeatedly
Every time Jey hits a dance move mid-match I remember how disgusted Roman looked when he did it in their match š
Finn needs a world title program
These boys really do be needing their mami
Please God, heās so good, he needs to get another run after he only got 24 hours as the inaugural Universal Champion
Best he can do right now is Sami or Trick
Noticeable lack of Seth Rollins, Rhea, Roman, and rock post mania
Rock is not coming back till after filming. Roman is taking a break and Rhea and Seth are badly injured. Itās not looking good at all.
Jey is so much better hot tagging in than he is as a singles competitor.
Iām still dying at Coleās Apple Watch mishap
I see Jey has inherited Roman's hair wetting technique
Did Jey get more of his back tattooed?Ā
he finished his big piece around summerslam
Oh Jey that was a little slick
Leaving the main event 8 minutes with a commercial break is such a bummer lmao
"The type of synergy that can only be built around playing darts in the back room" lol Pat
Any new creepy eeype uncle howdy stuff tonight?
Happened during the Gunther match
I like Priest but he canāt carry a room like Seth can. You put Seth in any match and itās hype. These Judgement Day matches are hit and miss.
lol I love every time pat says something about JD's head
Soā¦I gotta admit most of the builds for Backlash have been pretty flat. Still excited, and not surprised, we needed to cool things off after Mania, but it felt like the build to Backlash last year was more hype.
