Judgment Day member swears at Damian Priest ahead of WWE RAW
The road to WWE SummerSlam is set to continue on Monday Night RAW after a quick tour of Japan for the main roster. The Judgment Day continues to dominate the red brand, despite various issues for its members of late. Damian Priest received a friendly salute from one of his stablemates upon returning to the United States today.
World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest retained his title at all three WWE events in Japan - over Jey Uso in Osaka, over Rey Mysterio in Tokyo, and then Uso again in Tokyo. Osaka also saw Dominik Mysterio fail to dethrone Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn, while Finn Balor and JD McDonagh retained over The New Day. The same matches took place during night 1 in Tokyo, then the second show in Tokyo saw The New Day defeat Finn and JD via DQ, which led to Rey and The New Day defeating Dominik, JD, and Finn in six-man action.
Dirty Dom took to Instagram Stories to share a photo of The Archer of Infamy as they landed in Minneapolis, Minnesota on Sunday. The 27-year-old gave his stablemate a middle finger salute and attached The Game's 2005 single 'Hate It Or Love It' with 50 Cent as the theme for the post.
WWE's roster had a grueling bout of travel this weekend to make it back in time for RAW.
"Back in the U. S of A [salute emoji] @archerofinfamy," Dominik Mysterio wrote with the middle finger salute to Damian Priest.
The Judgment Day is gearing up for the 37th annual SummerSlam PLE next Saturday. Priest is set to defend the World Heavyweight Championship against Gunther, while Dom is expected to be at ringside as Ripley challenges Liv Morgan for the World Women's Championship.
