The landscape of WWE may witness a significant shift post-WrestleMania, as Triple H hints at the possibility of the formidable faction Judgment Day breaking up.
Currently holding sway over the Women’s World Championship, tag team titles, and the Money in the Bank briefcase, the faction could soon add another world title to its impressive roster when Damian Priest cashes in his contract. However, rumors are circulating that their dominance may be short-lived, with speculations of a split surfacing after WrestleMania.
In a departure from the norm, WWE now boasts two distinct General Managers for RAW and SmackDown, a change that occurred after Adam Pearce’s stint as the singular authority figure.
Last year, Triple H elevated Pearce to the role of General Manager of RAW and introduced Nick Aldis as the SmackDown General Manager. The dynamic of having two separate GMs sets the stage for potential brand-specific developments, and the WWE universe is abuzz with anticipation.
Traditionally, WWE conducts a draft after WrestleMania, facilitating the exchange of stars between brands. Triple H is expected to announce a draft this year, providing both General Managers with the opportunity to acquire fresh talent for their respective rosters. The draft not only paves the way for new rivalries and storylines but also opens the door for potential changes within factions.
The Judgment Day faction, led by Rhea Ripley, has recently shown signs of internal discord. Ripley’s frustration with the faction’s distractions could be a catalyst for a significant shake-up.
The draft might serve as a mechanism to separate Ripley and Dominik from the rest of the group, introducing a new dynamic to their storylines. While it may not be the anticipated betrayal, it sets the stage for compelling narratives.
Opting not to split the faction ensures the potential for a future reunion, which could then culminate in the much-anticipated betrayal, injecting a fresh dose of intrigue into WWE storylines.
Amidst the speculations surrounding the fate of Judgment Day, Triple H, as the head of creative, faces the arduous task of crafting compelling narratives leading up to WrestleMania. With The Rock and Roman Reigns poised for the event, fan discontent over Cody Rhodes’s absence from a marquee match looms large.
Additionally, the injury to CM Punk has created a void in Seth Rollins’s potential opponent, sparking discussions about Cody Rhodes stepping in to fill that gap. As WrestleMania approaches, Triple H navigates the challenges of balancing fan expectations and delivering a memorable showcase of talent.
