Former WWE champion becoming the newest member of The Judgment Day would be cool, says Damian Priest
WWE RAW's The Judgment Day currently has five members. Damian Priest recently revealed that he wanted to see another top superstar join the faction.
Jey Uso is a multi-time WWE Tag Team Champion and is currently one of the most popular wrestlers in the Stamford-based company. Although the 38-year-old challenged Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship at Backlash France, the Judgment Day member disclosed in an interview with The Indian Express that he and Main Event have a close relationship off camera.
When asked which current superstars he would like to add to The Judgment Day, Priest named the former Bloodline member, claiming it would be cool to have him in the group.
"I like Jey Uso, man. He's gained everybody's respect. He and I have gotten close and that's legitimately, like, he's one of my boys now. So, if I could get Jey into The Judgment Day, that would be cool," he said. [9:25 - 9:41]

Damian Priest could leave The Judgment Day after WWE Money in the Bank
While Damian Priest would love to add Jey Uso to The Judgment Day, he could have to leave the faction himself after WWE Money in the Bank. The World Heavyweight Champion will defend his title against Seth Rollins this Saturday. As part of the match stipulations, should the former lose, he would have to leave the stable.
In his interview with The Indian Express, Priest stated that he was confident he would beat The Visionary and remain in the group, he noted that he would not have accepted such a match stipulation, had he not been sure of retaining his title against Rollins.
"So, I'm confident and that's why I was able to, you know, make that gentlemen's agreement, where, you know, if I lose, fine, I leave The Judgment Day. But I don't think I'm gonna lose or else I, you know, I wouldn't have made that bet," he said.
Priest also stated that he was excited to have the opportunity to go head-to-head against The Visionary, especially since he wanted to cash in his Money in the Bank contract on Rollins, and not Drew McIntyre, at WWE WrestleMania XL. It would be interesting to see if the 41-year-old could walk out of the premium live event as the champion.
