This was indeed a major surprise on this week's RAW

This week's episode of Monday Night RAW saw a massive twist as Edge tried to recruit another member to his faction, The Judgment Day. However, he ended up getting betrayed by his own recruits. We now have an update on the Rated-R Superstar's WWE status following this brutal attack.

The new member was none other than former Universal Champion Finn Balor. Following Balor's arrival, Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley turned on Edge, as the three of them laid down a brutal beatdown on the WWE Hall of Famer.

Finn Balor looks to have taken over the leadership of The Judgment Day now. This decision caught many by surprise as the faction started only a few months ago. Under the guidance of a legend with exceptional character work and experience like Edge, the group seemingly had a very bright future.

According to the latest report by Mike Johnson of PWInsider, The Rated-R Superstar has officially been moved to the babyface side of the roster following the betrayal on RAW.

In the aftermath of the attack, WWE announced that Edge suffered a non-displaced orbital fracture, so he'll seemingly be sidelined for the short-term future. The Hall of Famer will likely return to a positive reception from the WWE Universe and will be looking to get revenge on his former faction.


Edge could once again become the top babyface on Monday Night RAW

The Rated-R Superstar is one of just a few stars on the current roster who have completely excelled both as a babyface and a heel. Following the vicious betrayal and being kicked out of The Judgment Day, the Hall of Famer might soon take up the position of the red brand's top babyface.

Cody Rhodes has held the position since he returned to the company in April. But with The American Nightmare suffering a major injury and expected to be out of action for a few months, WWE might be looking for another star to replace him.

It is yet to be seen whether The Rated-R Superstar will return to television immediately next week, or take some time off before returning to a massive ovation. He will definitely have revenge on his mind when he does come back. Could we see him form a babyface faction? Time will tell.

Meanwhile, fans are still trying to understand exactly why WWE chose to make Finn Balor the new leader of The Judgment Day. Regardless, the WWE Universe will have to wait and see what the future holds for the group.
