WWE announced that a new Judgment Day member would be unveiled ahead of tonight's RAW. With Balor walking down to the ring, fans expected the former Universal Champion to ally himself with the Hall of Famer and his faction.
Instead, Damian Priest hit his now-former leader. Balor, Priest, and Rhea Ripley started stomping on the multi-time WWE World Champion as the new Judgment Day leader hit the Coup de Grace to make a huge statement.
At Hell in a Cell, the trio of Edge, Ripley, and Priest defeated the babyface trio of Liv Morgan, AJ Styles, and Balor in a thrilling Mixed Tag Team Match.
The WWE Universe was in shock after Finn Balor attacked Edge and joined Judgment Day
Finn Balor becoming the new leader of Judgment Day wasn't something the WWE Universe expected to unfold on RAW.
However, with Cody Rhodes sidelined with a torn pec, many fans on social media suggested that Edge will now be the top babyface on RAW.
Nonetheless, a portion of the WWE Universe enjoyed Balor allying with Judgment Day. Replying to his tweet, fans applauded the move with some interesting posts:

However, not everyone enjoyed Balor and co. attacking Edge on RAW. Taking to Twitter, one fan criticized the former Universal Champion's actions:
@FinnBalor It took 3 of you to take down a guy in his late 40s. Do better.....
Expect The Rated-R Superstar to unleash on Judgment Day and feud against them going forward.
Suggested: Balor has a very unique record which not many WWE superstars can flaunt
