Judgement Day member set to wrestle first-time match on SmackDown; Women’s Championship segment announced

The Judgment Day continues to invade SmackDown following WrestleMania 39. With Rhea Ripley capturing the SmackDown Women's Championship at WrestleMania 39, it has seemingly given The Judgment Day faction a free pass to move back and forth across Monday and Friday nights.

Their rivalry with the LWO will continue tonight as WWE has announced that Damian Priest is scheduled to go one-on-one against Santos Escobar.

The following is an excerpt from WWE's official website regarding tonight's match between Damian Priest and Santos Escobar:

Even before being named as part of the new LWO by Rey Mysterio, Legado Del Fantasma have been ready and willing to back up the WWE Hall of Famer against The Judgment Day. After Mysterio and Santos Escobar fell short against Damian Priest and Dominik Mysterio in tag team action last Friday, Escobar will now take on Priest.

Newly crowned WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez are scheduled to appear tonight to host a championship celebration for their victory earlier this week on Monday Night RAW.
