00:00Music and Spotify, gentlemen, get ready for this. It is a six-person mixed tag team match.
00:05Liv Morgan, Ben Fowler, and the phenomenal AJ Styles that take on the entire Judgment Day.
00:13This has been a rivalry that's seen a ton of twists and turns.
00:24WWE Universe.
00:27All rise.
00:30Show the proper respect to the Judgment Day.
00:38The Judgment Day is true.
00:43The Judgment Day is power.
00:47You're all shit, afraid to grab life by its throat and raid it for all its worth.
00:54The truth will set you free.

00:59Re-create yourself, and in so doing, re-write your career.
01:06I've embraced the movement, and I have enjoyed every single second of it.
01:13We can help you. We can help all of you.
01:15Save yourself.
01:16Help yourselves.
01:17By joining the Judgment Day.
01:21It's time for complete and utter eradication.
01:32Join us on top of the mountain.
01:35It's a beautiful place to be.
01:37So live.
01:39Finn.
01:40AJ, the choice is yours.
01:43This has to end.
01:45And it can end with you standing by our side, or laying at our feet, again and again and again,
01:53as long as it takes.
02:04You think you know me?
02:07You never did.
02:09You never did.
02:36Other superstars talk about tactics.
02:39They talk about skills.
02:41Edge talks about domination, eradication, breaking wills.
02:49The following is a six-person mixed tag team match.
02:57Introducing first, the team of Rhea Ripley, Damian Priest, and Edge.
03:05The Judgment Day!
03:11Spreading his message, perched high atop the mountain of omnipotence.
03:19The WWE Hall of Famer has promised freedom, opportunity, and a measure of salvation,
03:29while simultaneously running roughshod over WWE.
03:34You know, it is truly scary to think how this trio came together.
03:39It is truly scary to think how Edge handpicked the eradicator, Rhea Ripley.
03:45The punishment, Damian Priest.
03:47And now those two superstars have unyielding loyalty to everything.
03:54Edge.
03:55Edge simply offered the apple.
03:57Priest and Ripley were smart enough to take a bite.
04:05They offered to take their careers to the next level.
04:10Damian Priest, former United States champion.
04:13Rhea Ripley, former Raw Women's Champion.
04:21First, from Elmont Park, New Jersey, Liv Morgan!
04:28Liv Morgan, of course, a long-time tag team partner of Rhea Ripley.
04:32And in my opinion, aligning herself with AJ Styles and Finn Balor could be the missing ingredient
04:39for Liv Morgan's success here in WWE, although I don't know that that begins tonight.
04:44Also could have been a matter of self-preservation.
04:52And our tag team partners, first from Bray County, Wicklow, Ireland, Finn Balor!
05:01Finn Balor, much like Liv Morgan and AJ Styles, has been victim to the numbers game presented
05:07by the Judgment Day.
05:09Hence this uprising, this connection, this union between Balor, Morgan, and Styles.
05:17I certainly think there's some credence to Jimmy's assessment that it could, in fact, be self-preservation
05:22and above all.
05:44And making his way to the ring, from Cainesville, Georgia, weighing 218 pounds,
05:49the phenomenal AJ Styles!
05:55Remember how this all started?
05:58AJ Styles versus Edge, in the lead-up to WrestleMania,
06:03Edge saying he won the pit bull, AJ Styles.
06:06He won the best, AJ Styles.
06:08That's where this began.
06:09Since then, the Judgment Day has become a plague over Monday Night Raw,
06:14and AJ Styles found friendship, found alliance with one of his oldest friends who he's traveled
06:22the globe with.
06:23Dare I say they're a club of sorts, alongside Liv Morgan.
06:28Certainly no strangers to one another, Styles and Balor.
06:32I think we are moments away from a hell of a six-person tag team match.
06:37With all three of those superstars, AJ Styles, Finn Balor, Liv Morgan,
06:41realizing the power shift that has been taking place for weeks here with the Judgment Day,
06:47and understanding how critical it is to stop the momentum of said Judgment Day.
06:54Huge crowd on hand, sold out here at the All-State Arena in Chicago, Illinois.
07:01Watching the Judgment Day, we've been in the ring together, but never as a tag team until tonight.
07:06Obviously, the rules of this mixed tag team matchup will dictate that the females will compete against the females.
07:12If a tag is made to a male competitor, then another male competitor must replace the female at that time.
07:20Friends turn bitter rivals in Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan.
07:26Losing control over the other three!
07:29Chaos from the start!
07:30And a showdown in Chi-Pound!
07:33I can't say that I'm surprised.
07:35Three-on-three brawler!
07:37Oh, the stomp!
07:38Balor.
07:39And Balor.
07:40Bringing the fight in.
07:43Styles, Morgan, and Balor standing strong in the ring.
07:47Only one left for the Judgment Day is Rhea Ripley.
07:49The eradicator of the group, and...
07:51Whoa!
07:52Traded for Hurricane Rana!
07:55Tag team continuity here, the early going.
07:58Showing no fear of the Judgment Day tonight!
08:03Tremendous impact in the corner.
08:06As you said, Corey.
08:08Morgan's got a little pep in her step tonight.
08:10Getting new friends might be the key.
08:12Oh, damn!
08:14And she ran right into the forehead.
08:16You might want to check your teeth after that, Liv.
08:18Good God!
08:19Morgan's a shell shot.
08:23Take a look at this.
08:24Styles with the assist.
08:25Launching Morgan into a hurrican round.
08:27It took down Ripley momentarily, but with one epic headbutt.
08:31Bang!
08:33Everything changed.
08:35That is the power of Rhea Ripley.
08:37Oh, vicious kick to the ribs.
08:41We've got the metamorphosis of Rhea Ripley.
08:43We found out it was Edge who had actually gotten the ear of Rhea Ripley.
08:48Asked who was teaming up with Liv Morgan and said, listen, you are better on your own.
08:52Liv Morgan is simply holding you down.
08:54I wish, Byron, you would stop trying to blame all of this on Edge.
08:57The fact is, Edge has offered opportunity.
09:01When a WWE Hall of Famer, multiple-time world champion offers you...
09:05Gentlemen, look at the strength!
09:07Offers you opportunity.
09:08Oh, my God!
09:09You take it to the cover.
09:13Kick out from Liv Morgan.
09:15The strength and power of Rhea Ripley.
09:18To your point, Corey, felt like she was held back by her tag team partners,
09:22both Liv Morgan and Nikki A.S.H. at one point.
09:25In my opinion, it's not dissimilar to when Morpheus offered Neo the choice.
09:29Red pill, blue pill, the choice is yours.
09:32That's all Edge offered.
09:34An opportunity and a choice.
09:36A choice that has been offered to the entire locker room here at WWE, also to you, Corey Graves.
09:44We're not talking about our career prospects right now.
09:48We're talking about Rhea Ripley just eradicating Liv Morgan in the corner.
09:55Oh, that appealing offer.
09:58Taken up by Rhea Ripley.
09:59She's paying for it now.
10:01Drop kick right to the chin.
10:03Ripley.
10:12wisely, hesitant.
10:16looking for her other option which will be...
10:19A.J. Stiles!
10:30Unfinished business between the phenomenal A.J. Stiles and A.J.
10:35Summons the Punisher of the Judgment Day, Damian Priest.
10:39The loyal acolyte steps in.
10:42Oh, single leg variation coming out the back door.
10:46Beautiful stuff from A.J. Stiles.
10:50Oh!
10:50Dropkick finds a mark on Priest.
10:54Oh, Pele kick!
10:57Priest on spaghetti legs.
11:00Now, Stiles signaling for the Prince.
11:03So far, good teamwork.
11:06Between Finn Balor, A.J. Stiles, Liv Morgan, quick tags.
11:10No love lost between Balor and Priest.
11:13He feuded over the United States Championship some months back.
11:17In many ways that feud kind of was a planting of the seeds, if you will, for Damian Priest eventually
11:21joining the Judgment Day.
11:23Finn Balor ended the title reign of Damian Priest.
11:26Smart move by Balor, going down low, trying to chop the much larger Priest down.
11:30Beautiful leg kick.
11:32Now, going after that knee.
11:35Ranking on the ankle as well.
11:36Balor knows a million ways to hurt you.
11:39A very, very highly skilled grappler.
11:41We know what Balor has accomplished in WWE.
11:44The first ever Universal Champion.
11:46Oh!
11:47Intercontinental Champion.
11:48United States Champion.
11:49Distraction from Edge.
11:51And Priest to the back of the neck.
11:53And how many times over the last couple of weeks have we seen that very scenario?
11:56Edge distracting a competitor.
11:57Rhea Ripley distracting a competitor.
11:59Allowing another member of the Judgment Day to take advantage.
12:02I call that intelligence, Saxton.
12:04Same thing.
12:05When you can exploit your opponent's lack of intelligence, you do so early and you do so often.
12:11Edge is now legal.
12:13Oh!
12:15Leveling Finn Balor!
12:18My God!
12:22He is the leader of the Judgment Day.
12:24He is opportunistic.
12:26Leading by example is the WWE Hall of Famer.
12:30Taking full advantage of Finn Balor.
12:32Hasn't yet recovered from the attack of Damian Priest.
12:35Smart strategy by Edge.
12:37Balor had his wits shaken on the outside.
12:40And the ultimate opportunist did what he does best.
12:44Close!
12:46And close!
12:47Even Edge, despite all his accomplishments, his Hall of Fame career said,
12:51he is only just getting started.
12:54Oh!
12:55Beautiful kick to the gut!
12:56And if you're Edge and you look at Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley
13:00and any other potential members of the Judgment Day is a fountain of youth
13:04to do your bidding so that Edge can focus on whatever it is he so chooses.
13:09Got Edge behind the official's back.
13:11Speaking of the sneaky tricks of Edge,
13:13and that's really the X factor in the situation like this is the leadership of Edge.
13:18The experience.
13:19All he can do, as you said, behind the back of the referee.
13:23Big time tackle by Priest.
13:25Cover!
13:25One!
13:26Two!
13:27Kick out from Finn Balor but back to the offense goes Damian Priest.
13:32Targeting the left arm of Finn Balor.
13:34And notice how the Judgment Day has effectively cut the ring in half.
13:38Balor has been nowhere near Styles or Liv Morgan way on the other side of the ring.
13:42This is expert classic tag team strategy.
13:46What's compelling to me is the fact that these three don't have experience teaming up with each other.
13:51I mean, such a smooth operation if you will.
13:54It just speaks to how aligned all three of these superstars are with the messaging of the Judgment Day.
14:00They believe 100% the saints of fate is what Edge calls them.
14:06Oh!
14:06Caught into his system.
14:08It's paying dividends right now.
14:09The ring may have shifted a few inches off of Balor's spine.
14:13Incredible impact in the corner.
14:15And Edge now stalking a fallen prince.
14:19Listen to the nasty impact of the spine of Finn Balor.
14:24He's on the wrong side of town right now at the mercy of the right hands.
14:29Delivered by Edge.
14:31A beautiful move by Finn Balor.
14:34Able to fight his way out of the enemy corner.
14:37Balor.
14:38Oh!
14:38Trying to reach up right there.
14:41Oh!
14:42Face down.
14:45Edge able to stop the momentum before the tag.
14:48To the cover again.
14:51Kick out from Finn Balor but you can see him fading.
14:54Oh!
14:55Balor was just inches, mere inches away from Tagadin Styles.
15:00Punisher!
15:01Instead receiving more punishment from said Punisher.
15:07Damian Priest.
15:11Finding some elimination offense but that's the power of Damian Priest to the cover.
15:18Finn Balor fading and fading fast in the middle of the ring.
15:22No wasted motion by Damian Priest.
15:24Finn Balor escaped the pinfall attempt and Priest immediately cinched in his submission hold.
15:29He's going to continue to wear down Finn Balor.
15:31And it feels really frustration for both Liv Morgan and AJ Styles who are essentially helpless.
15:36Jawbreaker escape.
15:37Big opening for Balor.
15:40Trying to make the tag to Styles.
15:43Reaching again.
15:46Got to free himself from the grip of Damian Priest.
15:49He's going to like to weigh it.
15:50Oh!
15:51Backbreaker.
15:51That might do it.
15:52To cover!
15:54The kick outs getting later and later for Finn Balor.
15:58To this point Liv Morgan and AJ Styles have barely factored into this matchup in any capacity.
16:05Damian Priest.
16:07When you ask him about the Judgment Day he talks about the leadership of Edge.
16:10The mentorship of Edge.
16:12All that's on display right now Jimmy.
16:14This has been an extremely sound strategy we've seen from the Judgment Day.
16:20Beautiful combination kicks.
16:24Oh my gosh!
16:26What a response from Balor.
16:28You hear that chop all the way down in Wrigleyville.
16:30Oh!
16:31And Balor answers with an overhead kick.
16:34Down goes Priest.
16:35Balor's got daylight.
16:36Finally Damian Priest face down he's flattened.
16:40Does Balor have enough?
16:43Does Finn Balor have enough to crawl to his corner and make the tag?
16:48Damian Priest trying to do the same thing.
16:51Edge is now legal and so is a phenomenal one.
16:54This is what Styles wanted earlier on in this matchup.
16:57He wanted Edge and now he's got the Rated R Superstar.
17:01What he wanted to do at WrestleMania tee off on Edge.
17:05Yeah!
17:06Before the interference of Damian Priest.
17:09Oh!
17:10Case first goes Priest.
17:12Styles disposing of Damian Priest.
17:14Refocusing on Edge.
17:17No one attacks bigger than AJ Styles once he's rolling to the cover.
17:23Quiet!
17:24Just in time to kick out from Edge.
17:28Styles unrelenting right now understands how important...
17:31AJ's thinking about the Styles clash and right now,
17:34Styles and Morgan are arguably the freshest competitors in this entire matchup.
17:38They've been stuck on the apron for most of this.
17:40Liv Morgan right now teeing off on Rhea Ripley.
17:43It is just Edge and AJ.
17:44Styles with a full tank of gas sent to the outside and...
17:48A lining knee rocks Damian Priest.
17:51A shot to Priest.
17:52Styles now all alone on the apron.
17:54You know what AJ Styles is thinking now!
17:58It is loaded!
18:01Phenomenal forearm right across the jaw!
18:03That's it!
18:05One!
18:06Two!
18:07Oh!
18:07Yo!
18:09Finally!
18:10Finally!
18:11Finally!
18:11Styles able to connect with a phenomenal forearm.
18:14Something he has not been able to do to Edge.
18:17Since prior to WrestleMania.
18:19Didn't just connect but flattened Edge.
18:21He got all this.
18:22And Edge hasn't moved.
18:23Edge may be out.
18:24This match may be over had it not been for Damian Priest.
18:27Look at this once again.
18:28AJ got every bit of this forearm.
18:31Rocking the jaw of the Hall of Famer.
18:34But just as the official got in position.
18:37Damian Priest from the outside.
18:40Yanking Styles out and keeping this match alive for the Judgment Day.
18:43What this would mean for AJ Styles to get Edge on his back.
18:48To stall the momentum of the Judgment Day.
18:50Which has looked unstoppable.
18:53Absolutely.
18:54AJ Styles now in desperate need of making a tag.
18:57As is Edge.
18:59He got a fresh-lived Morgan.
19:01Rhea Ripley tagged in.
19:02And here comes Morgan!
19:05He was taking advantage of Rhea Ripley on the outside.
19:08Right into the Hurricanrana.
19:10But no!
19:10Strength of Ripley.
19:13Oh!
19:13Countered!
19:14Shove this down!
19:16Take out just in time for Maria.
19:20Rhea Ripley rocked.
19:23Morgan now with it.
19:24Looking for a crucifix.
19:26Oh!
19:26Oh!
19:26The driver!
19:27Back!
19:28One!
19:28Two!
19:29Oh!
19:30Oh man!
19:31Tremendous offense from Liv Morgan.
19:34Digging deeper to the playbook is what Morgan's doing.
19:36Liv needs to keep her foot on the gas pedal.
19:38He's got Ripley reeling for the moment.
19:41Liv Morgan was the loyalty test for Rhea Ripley.
19:45Half and half suplex.
19:46That could do it.
19:49Submitted her not once but twice.
19:52Now looking to finish her to prove her loyalty to the judgment day.
19:57What a hoist up Liv Morgan.
20:00A range of power by Rhea.
20:03Unbelievable.
20:04Shoulders down.
20:05Hook in the leg.
20:06Kick out.
20:09Morgan finds a way.
20:10Finds a way to escape.
20:13Liv Morgan is staying in the match but Rhea Ripley right now doling out all the punishment.
20:21What does Ripley have in store for Liv Morgan next?
20:27Not thinking Riptide.
20:30This may very well do it.
20:32No more than.
20:33Beautiful escape.
20:34Tag made.
20:36Finn Balor the legal competitor.
20:38Oh!
20:40Vicious DDT!
20:42Finn Balor's legal but that doesn't matter right now.
20:45Take it down again.
20:46Just like we did to start this match.
20:49An absolute three on three brawl.
20:52Please sit to the outside.
20:55And a sense of serious wheels are turning here.
21:00Styles!
21:01Oh my God!
21:03And now Morgan!
21:06And the judgment day laid out!
21:11The weeks of punishment, the weeks of darkness, the weeks of being outnumbered seem to be over.
21:20Right between the eyes of Priest.
21:23Damian Priest.
21:24Don't look now.
21:25You are in the drop zone.
21:27The Prince making his ascent.
21:30Watch Rhea Ripley.
21:31Oh!
21:32Taken with a balance of Finn Balor just in time.
21:36They can coup de grace but...
21:38Now he's trying to recover.
21:43Ripley proud of herself understanding that she has preserved the life of the Judgment Day thus far in this match.
21:49Brilliant.
21:49Rhea Ripley relied on her femininity knowing that Ballard could not do anything about it and change the course of
21:55the matchup for the Judgment Day.
21:56Edge now legal.
21:58But runs right into a kick.
22:01Oh my God!
22:03Ballard taking a trip south of heaven.
22:05Here's Styles!
22:06Oh!
22:07For him yet again!
22:09And Edge...
22:11Styles disposed of...
22:13Shoulder first into the post on the way out.
22:17Now a crazed look!
22:19That familiar crazed look in the eyes of Edge!
22:23Oh! Beautiful cradle counter!
22:26Oh!
22:29Sling blade!
22:32Ballard!
22:33Now with his own determined crazed look!
22:37Edge is down!
22:38Ballard!
22:38Ballard's gonna try this again!
22:40Now it's Edge in the drop zone!
22:42The Prince once again from the top!
22:46And again!
22:48Rhea Ripley putting herself in harm's way!
22:53Now he's got a decision to make!
22:54Or maybe not!
22:56Liv Morgan's back in the mix!
22:58Both hooks in able to...
22:59Oh!
23:01Able to get Rhea out of there!
23:02Oh!
23:03The spear from Edge!
23:05Absolutely folding Finn Balor!
23:07One, two, three!
23:13Here are your winners!
23:15The Judgment Day!
23:19The willingness of Rhea Ripley once again to sacrifice herself leads to victory for the Judgment Day!
23:29This was a true battle in every sense of the word!
23:35But this battle tonight has been won by the Judgment Day!
23:43What a battle!
23:46A hell of an effort by Morgan, Stiles, and Ballard!
23:51But in the end, it would be the Hall of Famer who put the final nail in the coffin of
23:57the Prince!
23:59Stiles and Ballard!
24:00Stiles and Ballard were rolling!
24:01Tantum offense would take out Damian Priest and Edge!
24:05Liv Morgan would join the affair!
24:06Wiping out her former tag team partner Rhea Ripley!
24:11The chaos would continue on in this matchup!
24:16Stiles would rock Priest with a phenomenal forearm!
24:19But Edge once again sending Stiles to the outside!
24:24This was a key moment right here!
24:26Ballard was looking for the coup de grace!
24:28Liv Morgan would take out Ripley who served as a distraction!
24:31But that brought Edge just enough time to deliver the spear and the victory for the Judgment Day!
24:45And the message of the Judgment Day got a whole lot louder!
24:52And the presence of the Judgment Day just got a whole lot stronger!
