Speaking recently on Busted Open, Mark Henry took some time to examine the internal dynamics of the Judgment Day roster, particularly regarding the potential rising conflict between teammates Finn Balor and Damian Priest (via Wrestling Inc). Henry explained that Priest’s win at Money In The Bank puts him in a position to compete for Balor’s current goal of Seth Rollins’ World Heavyweight Championship, which allows for an interesting point of tension between allies. You can find a few highlights from Henry and listen to the latest episode below.
On the possible dynamics within the Judgment Day currently: “Now, with him [Priest] having the briefcase, and Finn losing his opportunity with Seth, who is he [Priest] gonna try and take the title from? Hopefully, it’s not who we think it is, because I got another shot at it, and if I win, that means, you know, you’d be kinda infringing on my territory. There are just so many ways they can do that, they can make it about each other, they can make it about, ‘So, if I [Balor] win, if I do beat Seth Rollins before you cash it in, would you take a shot at me?””
On Priest’s briefcase win at LA Knight’s expense: “Damian Priest earned that spot. What he did with Bad Bunny was worth the price of admission in itself, at that pay-per-view [WWE Backlash]. It was. And now, this is like the [reward] for all the work he’s put in this year.”
