Damian Priest has been pulling the strings of The Judgment Day in Rhea Ripley's absence. The new World Heavyweight Champion was involved in a war of words with Jey Uso on the latest edition of Monday Night RAW ahead of their huge championship match at WWE Backlash.

During the promo, the former Bloodline member took a shot at The Punisher. He said that the only reason Damian Priest was the leader of The Judgment Day was because of The Eradicator's absence. Jey Uso implied that Priest was just a transitional leader in Mami's absence.

With her recent activity, Rhea Ripley may have subtly confirmed that she does not believe in Priest as the leader of the heel faction. The former Women's World Champion seems to agree with Jey Uso's recent statement on RAW about The Archer of Infamy.

Rhea Ripley liked WWE's Instagram post

WWE posted the clip of the promo segment between Jey Uso and Damian Priest on its official social media handle. However, what's interesting to note is that Rhea Ripley liked the post, although it was a subtle shot at her own stablemate.

It seems to indicate that Mami might have agreed with Jey's statement about Priest and furtively hinted at her dissent with the current World Heavyweight Champion. Needless to say, there has always been a power struggle between both members of The Judgment Day.

With The Eradicator liking WWE's Instagram post, she may have subtly confirmed that the only reason Damian Priest was able to act as the leader of the heel faction was because of her unavailability.

Damian Priest has been berating Dominik Mysterio

This week on RAW, Damian Priest was seen enforcing his dominance over Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh. He was enraged at Dirty Dom for bringing Santos Escobar to the Red Brand without his consent.

Moreover, The Punisher berated Mysterio for failing to tackle Andrade and Ricochet and stated that he does not need them to handle business. With the way Damian Priest has been treating Rhea Ripley's Dom Dom, Mami could be enraged.

The Eradicator could be dissatisfied with what's happening within The Judgment Day in her absence.

The Judgment Day might implode soon

It's been just a week since Rhea Ripley went on hiatus and The Judgment Day seems to be in a precarious state. Damian Priest has been calling the shots lately, enforcing his dominance over his stablemates, which has been conspicuous.

With the way things have been transpiring in recent times, it looks like a matter of time before the heel faction implodes. There's a good possibility that The Judgment Day could break apart in Ripley's absence.

WWE has been teasing it for quite some time, as the power struggle between Damian Priest and The Eradicator was visible. Now that Rhea Ripley is gone, Priest's hunger for power could become the reason for his downfall, which could lead to the implosion The Judgment Day.
