WWE has reportedly moved Uncle Howdy and The Wyatt Sicks from RAW to SmackDown. Their previously planned rivalry with The Final Testament and Karrion Kross did not materialize.

Sources indicate WWE’s creative team, led by Triple H, might be planning a match between Uncle Howdy and Finn Balor. Balor was taken out of action following his Street Fight against Damian Priest on RAW, where he was stretchered out of the arena.

Reports suggest Balor might separate from The Judgment Day, transition to SmackDown, and return to his Demon King persona. Speculation indicates this could lead to a confrontation with Uncle Howdy, potentially building toward a match at WrestleMania 41.

Finn Balor’s Street Fight Loss

The match stemmed from Balor’s actions at SummerSlam 2024, where he interfered in Priest’s World Heavyweight Championship opportunity.

On RAW, Priest controlled the match and delivered a Broken Arrow through a table to Balor. Despite medical personnel attempting to remove Balor on a stretcher, Priest brought him back to the ring. The match concluded when Priest executed the South of Heaven Chokeslam for the victory.

This encounter followed their participation in a triple threat match at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, where Gunther retained the World Heavyweight Championship. Gunther now prepares to defend his title against Jey Uso at the January 25 edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event.

The Judgment Day’s position on RAW appears increasingly uncertain following several notable setbacks. JD McDonagh and Finn Balor lost their World Tag Team Championship to The War Raiders, while Liv Morgan dropped her WWE Women’s World Championship to Rhea Ripley. These losses coincide with visible fractures within the group.

Balor’s recent Street Fight loss to Damian Priest ended in a stretcher segment, potentially signaling a temporary absence. Meanwhile, Liv Morgan’s absence from confrontations with Ripley suggests a concluded chapter in their rivalry.

A backstage meeting between Dominik Mysterio and SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis last month sparked speculation about the group’s future. Rather than indicating betrayal, this interaction might have laid groundwork for The Judgment Day’s brand transition.

The faction’s current storyline trajectory aligns with reports of The Wyatt Sicks moving to SmackDown, opening possibilities for fresh rivalries and dynamics on the blue brand.

Logan Paul Match Could Reshape WrestleMania Plans

As The Judgment Day’s future remains uncertain, potential WrestleMania 41 plans involving Dominik Mysterio have emerged. A proposed tag team match could see Dominik partner with Logan Paul against Rey Mysterio and Bad Bunny in Las Vegas.

The Miz recently commented on Logan Paul’s rising status in WWE during NBA Today:

I see Victor as the new face of the NBA. When I think about WWE and someone who’s emerging and could become the face of the company, I think of Logan Paul.

This potential matchup would mark Bad Bunny’s WWE return after his San Juan Street Fight victory over Damian Priest at Backlash 2023, adding another layer to The Judgment Day’s evolving narrative.

Last night’s WWE RAW main event saw Finn Balor face serious consequences for his actions at SummerSlam 2024, where he betrayed Damian Priest and cost him the World Heavyweight Championship. The resulting Street Fight pushed both competitors to their limits.

Priest dominated much of the match, at one point sending Balor through a table with a devastating Broken Arrow.

Despite medical personnel attempting to remove Balor on a stretcher, Priest brought him back to the ring. The match concluded after Priest executed the South of Heaven Chokeslam for the victory.

This encounter follows their recent triple threat match at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, where Gunther retained his World Heavyweight Championship against both men. Looking ahead, the champion is set to defend his title against Jey Uso at the January 25 edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event.
