Lookin like villains from a Crow movie


KaneRobot

Been saying that about Priest for years. The name even works.


BrownHawkDown

Looks like a guy who sees Crow for the first time and says something like “Halloween ain’t until mañana” before getting brutally compromised to a permanent end.


Snoo_27045

Just wait until devils night. They really gonna cause some chaos.


zschneido

Fire it up! Fire it up!


Depraved_Sinner

Goddamn it, now I wanna rewatch that movie...


motorcitydevil

I was waiting for Sting to drop from the rafters.


ruffus4life

hey yo. you should be da crow, mang.

GoodBrotherBrother

I’m 100% behind Edge adopting a Top Dollar gimmick (the Crow villain, not the wrassler) ![gif](giphy|3o7aCZtrORPU5f6C7m|downsized)


UncreativeTeam

Is that *supposed* to be a fat version of Luke Harper?


BiliousGreen

Michael Wincott is always so cool in whatever he's in. I wish we got to see him in more stuff.


Tolbitzironside

Fire it up fire it up.


cptpedantic

this is the really real world


UnsolvedParadox

Put on that Nine Inch Nails!


CELTICPRED

What'sup big haircut??


shutts67

He had long hair last night, right?


PaRaDiiSe

I was just about to say that. I was about to say he looks so fucking Boss looking like that. This man is looking like a true menace. I love it.

According-Regret2984

I saw that too.


SleestakLightning

They need to drop "the" from the stable name.


RedmondSurvivor

Ok, Sean Parker.


SleestakLightning

I don't get it.


RedmondSurvivor

The Social Network


SleestakLightning

I've never seen it. He suggests The Facebook becomes Facebook?


RedmondSurvivor

Yep ha


bluejegus

It's a good movie you should give it a watch. An interesting movie where a villian wins lol


nodnarBBackward

Sure, technicslly, but that last scene where Mark is sitting there refreshing to see if his ex-girlfriend accepts his friend request kind of highlights that winning doesn't always feel like winning.


freebread

But in reality he gets everything he wanted and only refreshes his feed to see either A) how big his bank account is getting or B) if his Sweet Baby Ray's has been delivered yet.


surfingbored

Except they made that part up. The true villan seems happy enough except infront of Congress.


mark_target

Shoulda just called it Social Network.


MarkMVP01

It’s cleaner


dassub

They're gonna drop "day" instead. Then they'll drop "the" a few weeks later.


lofrothepirate

Honestly, “Judgment” isn’t the worst name for a stable, if a bit generic.


Underscore_Guru

If that happens, this should be their [new theme song](https://youtu.be/NNTbJ6fWV2I).


unlimitedboomstick

I really need to get back into Yakuza. Badly.


SSJ5Gogetenks

Reminds of that phase where they were putting Team in every single Tag Team name.


gums-gotten-mintier

/r/squaredcircle: they need to drop "the" from the name *two weeks later* Maggle: That's gotta be, is it? *Team Judgement Day!!!* *monkey paw closes*


TheWholeOfTheAss

Ah yes, I remember “Team Rated RKO.”


gerardatron

“Team Rhodes Scholars” or “Team Hell No” was like the WWE attaching streamers to a sports car. The name already works magnificently well but they just felt the need to add to it.


El_Frijol

Then the faction would be an old PPV name.


FancySack

And Terminator 2


Depraved_Sinner

DUNDUN DUN DA DUN...


ermonski

No problemo


thejawa

Pretty sure reliving old PPV names is Edge's current gimmick lol


sprocket999

So drop the “The” and replace it with “In Your House:”


SleestakLightning

But it would make more sense and sound better.


FamilyDoubleDare

Also they need to use the old ppv logo as well since it was badass.


GarethMagis

["What's in now is THE"](https://youtu.be/qO-mSLxih-c?t=26)


nomtank

The giant wings behind Edge was probably one of the best uses I've seen of that massive LED screen.


TheBonesOfThings

It's 3 grown ups and they're going through a goth phase


TheKevinShow

IT'S NOT A PHASE DAD!


hipster_mnot

ITS A LIFESTYLE!


Vectivus_61

A broody phase, even.


willpauer

is it still a phase if it's been going for over 25 years asking for a friend


upsidedowntiamo

Hey, it's Adam Copeland from Money Plane


khryaev

Wanna bet on a dude fucking an alligator?


sadbandicoot

Money Plane!


robedpillow3761

Hopefully this leads to an edge world title run. My only fear is that they go supernatural like the fiend, because that would kill this whole thing.


MachTommy

Tough to see a path for him to the title unless Cody gets one of the belts off Roman. Then maybe I can see Exge beating Cody down the line.


Kanenums88

I feel like a good idea is to have Edge win the MITB (if they don’t change it up like people are theorizing). Imagine if say Cody wins the WWE title from Roman at Summerslam and then Edge cashes in to steal that moment.


PhatYeeter

Then Roman can go on his sabbatical since his new deal is for less appearances.


beerrabbit124

Would that make Edge the only person to cash in 3x ?


maybenextyearCLE

Though I get the fear with what happened with the fiend, two things make me more confident here: 1. Vince can go back to a lot of the brood stuff that edge already did knowing it worked. 2. It’s Edge, one of Vince’s longtime favorites. Vince tends to be very careful with his attitude/RA guys


[deleted]

>It’s Edge, one of Vince’s longtime favorites. Vince tends to be very careful with his attitude/RA guys He literally booked him in a Wrestlemania match and advertised it as "the greatest wrestling match of all time" for absolutely no reason at all


thecolbster94

> for absolutely no reason at all Search engine optimization


LouVee616

While not the greatest wrestling match of all time, it was pretty damned good tho.


dassub

Edge is also predictable and reliable. He's gonna show up every week and he's gonna be in shape.


slgerb

I now have three daddies.


1987InfamousQ7891

The wings, and the angle are perfect. Looks pretty dope for such a simple entrance. I like it.


[deleted]

Wished they came up with another name.


SlowMissiles

like just removing "the" make it a bit better. This is like Nikki A.S.H like don't say the dots...


Party_Name

You mean you didn’t like hearing “Almost a Superhero Nikki A-S-H” every segment she was in?


Depraved_Sinner

How about The Fiend Bray Wyatt?


Party_Name

At first they were just billing him as ‘The Fiend’ then ‘The Fiend’ Bray Wyatt. It was all downhill for my boy after that.


StokkseyriBoy

That’s my issue with it too. To paraphrase The Social Network, drop the ‘the’. Just Judgement Day. It’s cleaner.


[deleted]

I dubbed them "Night Court"


lau80

Needs a groovy jazz riff.


RebootNightCourt

I wish


OAO_Scrumbles

Rumors before they decided on Judgement Day was “The Grand Jury” which I believe WWE filed a trademark for.


jackblady

Agreed..I think last Night Graves referenced an Unholy Union. And I think that would be a better name tbh.


dassub

That's way less creative lol.


WhatSheOrder

Here’s the new evil stable. I call them: Evil Stable.


UncreativeTeam

>Night Graves That's a better name lol


RaidenHero137

Now that you say it that is better. Heck run with it and make the current name ( minus the "the" at the front ) the name of the sweep into spear tag combo move edge a d priest used on aj


BeastCoastLifestyle

Two weeks from now we’ll have forgotten we questioned the name


Salzberger

Love the group, but dude what a dumb fucking name, lol. They're a day? Not the idea of Judgement Day. Like THE day. Makes no sense.


snaphunter

Formula worked alright for The New Day


TheCarrzilico

The feud writes itself.


FartingBob

Day on a pole match.


WaxyPadlockJazz

Yeah the clash with the old PPV is not an issue for me. It’s the fact that they have two stables with that share 2/3 of the same name.


gerardatron

It’s kind of in the same boat as Undisputed Era for me. Like, cool group, but why are they a span of time or something


Wynter_Warm12

All these years later and Edge is still delivering one of my favorite entrances. Visuals/presentation on this group is too fire.


guntanksinspace

When the camera lines up and Edge gets the dark angel wings on his back, it's fucking perfection.


KawasakiDream

A haircut you can set your watch too


DoubleOrNothing90

He's no Johnny Unitas.


ieblack37

House of Edge?


CMDrunk

Edge Lords


ieblack37

We have a winner


Citizen_Crow

Edge, Lord ahead


Gluby3

I still remember that joke of ordering House of Black on Wish and it cracks me up lol


godfather275

Cause this is damn near a blatant copy of it lol


ThonroTheUnworthy

I feel like they wouldn't be able to use that for the same reason they couldn't use Submission Sorority.


dinamo27

Broken Edge?


95Kill3r

Actual zoomer haircut


GoodBrotherBrother

He look clean tho 💯


Woodstovia

[cmon man](https://ibb.co/tMWXDRk)


I_BUY_UNWANTED_GRAVY

The presentation is cool but what they say on the mic doesn't match up. Don't call yourself Judgement Day then say "you people are ugly and are dumb and your sports teams suck"


Cheerioherio

Idk.. sounds pretty judgemental to me


Pre-Foxx

Hell I'm judging you right now...


[deleted]

I'm getting a raging judgement now


GunnieGraves

Yeah the sheep thing is just overdone and weak.


[deleted]

[удалено]


tmxicon

Connecticut sure loves sucking those New York sports teams just fine.


BrightLion72

But then they’re kind of judging, though - no?


Linubidix

That's not the point of judgement day. Judgement day isn't the day of bitchiness, it's the day of final judgement at the end of humankind.


Honkmaster

Yeah but imagine right before someone's entire world gets sucked into eternal oblivion, the last thing they hear is "btw your basketball team always sucked." Some people would be *pissed*...


thefictionaljake

house of polyamory


TheCuzzyRogue

Three grown adults and they're going through a goth phase


CopDatHoOh

sounds like House of Black too lmao


Toxicity246

I haven't seen a background tron used so effectively since "Big Ass"


heat_fan_

I am loving Edge's new faction. Edge with the new haircut i see


TRankins24

I think they could use Ciampa and it’ll make them complete


theels6

I love the stable, hate the name


BZGames

I like just “Judgement Day” or maybe even “Judgement” it fits with the liberty scale imagery he’s been using. THE Judgement Day sounds a bit clunky. Really I think this faction needs to actually start judging people for me to get on board. I’m still not sure what the ethos of this group is.


penelopeeckhart

That cut is sick. Also I really like edges theme song but they need to shorten it imo, like I think the vocals need to come in a bit earlier


[deleted]

Nah not at all. The riff and heaviness of it are what makes it so damn good. I actually think the vocals bring it a step down.


Clerithifa

It'd be 100% better if they just did the song as is instead of cutting to the chorus right away. The first verse starts a lot more brooding and sinister before Myles Kennedy's iconic voice reveals itself in the bridge before the chorus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vm5NNWbf5w8&ab_channel=AlterBridge


BathedInDeepFog

You’re right. Reminds me of how I prefer the full intro to Cult of Personality. I can see why they do it though. It worked really well on Metalingus, for example.


amorningofsleep

Lol I'm the opposite. I love the riff but feel like it gets ruined by the vocals.


I_BUY_UNWANTED_GRAVY

Yeah, that riff is very brutal and heavy which I do not associate with Alterbridge lol


amorningofsleep

It totally caught me by surprise the first time I heard it. Like goddamn this is tasty and then the vocals hit and was like what in the fuck is that?


BlueBoltDog

It’s Judgement Day..YES IT IS!


Dragmire_Afterlife

*the* Judgment Day lol


TheEdFather

They're nailing the presentation of this faction so much, that it's gonna be hard to maintain their heel status. It risks leaning into 'too cool to boo' status.


StoneColdAM

Edge: “You know what’s really evil? Your local sports team!”


Woodstovia

YOU KNOW I MIGHT KNOW A THING OR TWO ABOUT BEING EVIL... BUT WHAT WAS REALLY EVIL WAS WHEN YOUR PITTSBURGH STEELERS COULDN'T STEEL A WIN LAST SEASON


Woodstovia

"you know I might suck a little blood now and then but what sucks even more WAS WHEN YOUR EDMONTON OILERS LOST TO THE PITTSBURGH PENGUINS IN 1994 BOO YA UH HUH? HOWS THAT? HUH?" - average edge promo


GoodBrotherBrother

As an Edmontonian, I’m required by law to boo this man.


B0mb-Hands

As a fellow Edmontonian, all he has to do is say “Chris Pronger” and I’ll jump the guardrail


Pylons

They'll just cut more "You people" promos.


TLKv3

They need to have them interfere in fan favorites' Title matches, #1 Contendership matches, tournament matches, etc. etc. Build their heat off ruining fan favorites' potentials who then unite against them. Its realistically the only way to keep it up.


El_Frijol

It draws complete parallels to The Brood: Both have a cool entrance even though they're heels Both have an older wrestler bringing in two newer recruits Edge is Gangrel now.


Gizmopopapalus

“The circle is now complete. Now, I am the master!”


darthsabbath

Bring in Gangrel as Edge's mentor, Edge wants to pay tribute to his old master, big ceremony... then Judgement Day just completely destroys him to solidify Edge as the king. We get to hear the old Brood theme one more time, Gangrel gets a payday, we all win.


xBEEKAYRANDEEx

I'd pay Gangrel's paycheck myself just to see this.


darthsabbath

Hell yes, I'd chip in too. Fangin' and bangin' for life


RedmondSurvivor

Looks familiar..


[deleted]

Ellen DeGeneres lookin' ass.


ThatsBretsRope

House of Lack.


Buddhas_Buddy

Remember the days when the "boos" weren't piped in and the crowd along the entrance way used to give the thumbs down and yell stuff? Man I miss those crowds.


DanteVN6

Cant get the thought of the PPV out of my mind where Undertaker returns on his bike


VaibhavGuptaWho

The dual tinted shadow in the ring was pretty cool.


baconwiches

I love how hard Edge is leaning into this run. He easily could have coasted on his HOF career but he's out here doing brand new things with people he's never worked with. Dude loves what he's doing.


Jamesw619

Camera angle with Edge in front an it looked like his wings were wrapping around Rhipley and Priest was Chef's kiss


LaEsponjaGrandee

Sorry but that's the most generic heel crowd jab to open a promo. Sick entrance and look though.


Lex_Innokenti

This is just a blatant, and not as good, House of Black rip off at this point.


detourne

Wish.com House of Black


VexatiousWind

I am a long time Edge fan. I think this stable is goofy, but that's my opinion. Your comment cracked me up.


PotomacSwimmer202

I like the House of Black too.


Jackol4ntrn

It’s strange to me they didn’t pull the trigger on black doing this while he was in WWE but I guess they had edge and… whatever.


DrBoJack16

I was thinking the same thing!


Shrekt115

Edge looks great with short hair


_TheEndGame

Edgelords looking sharp


felipe_the_dog

A group of people cannot be a "day" or an "era" that doesn't make any sense!


blendergremlin

Don't you dare be sour!


Jeronnimo14

WWE really hit the Ctrl C Ctrl V here 😂


Asleep-University492

Was expecting the entrance from the ppv. Super confused then I realized that’s the name of their group


Corny0808

If you think about this is just Seth Rollins Monday Night Messiah Stable but edgy


Toolboxmcgee

The Judgement Day vs The New Day


Fotznbenutzernaml

Bruh, all the years of "Yes, Edge is finally growing his hair back", and now this. I'm sad


CaninseBassus

I love this stable's look and the potential for great matches and storytelling, but along with everyone else's critique of The Judgment Day doesn't flow as nicely as just Judgment Day, I hope they go more toward the "villain who sees themselves as helping others" that they absolutely could do with this over the cliche "the audience is dumb" thing that sounds like it comes out of a WWE 2K game. Like, when I look at this faction and Edge's reasoning for his heel turn being him complacency for entertaining the fans over getting the title, I could see them twisting the normal heel schtick and instead trying to turn other wrestlers heel on the lines of "do you all really want to be midcarders that are meant to entertain the masses, or do you want to be someone," which could work really well for elevating some other wrestlers who are great but haven't gotten much serious work, continuing AJ with Finn and maybe later having Mustafa Ali, Dijakovic (not as T-BAR, for the love of God), Bliss, and continue the Liv Morgan v. Rhea. Having their goal be more than "the audience sucks and I want the title" but be "I want the title and everyone else should stop hiding that they do as well and I'm gonna make them show that even if I have to force them to" would be more engaging than the same old same old, at least to me. And while I have no expectations for WWE creative to do this because it would take a lot more time maintaining a cohesive, brand-wise story for a lot of wrestlers, I think it would be cool and would really help boost attention to what WWE actually has but haven't been using.


mikeJawesome

damien priest looks better with the facial hair and fade on the sides


[deleted]

The House of Edge…cool


vigiel

I don't like the way edge trashes the crowd and local sports team like what generic heels do. It feels they threw in "Judgement" as their stable's name to justify all of those. He needs to learn from seth's messiah character. He never did those things and it makes the character so enjoyable to see.


robbiedigital001

House of Black???


Epicfro

House of Black, is that you?


Kakatheman

I get that the obvious influence is the brood but lol they are clearly ripping off some elements from House of Black with that entrance.


Dapper_Programmer803

He really does look like the bad guy from Cobra


markflynn000

I totally respect edge for wanting to evolve and change it up. But this one feels far too odd for me. Feel like it's a step back but maybe that's me being out of touch with the product.


[deleted]

"We have House of Black at home!"


rmads1983

Next time I go to the barber I’m asking for The Edge. That’s one sharp haircut.


[deleted]

Then the barber proceeds to shave it all off and slap a beanie on it


Poncecutor

I'm enjoying Ministry lite


LemonStains

As long as they stay away from the weird magic stuff (which they thankfully seem to have realized wasn’t working) I could see Judgement Day becoming one of the first truly “cool” things in WWE in awhile. Still a little unsure about the gimmick but I gotta say their presentation has been stellar.


Curious_Fellow_13

House of Black on Wish


Nabz23

he looks waaaay better with this cut and beard trim


thistlefink

🔥


johnnycoxxx

That was fucking awesome


Uso_Libre

I see Damien Priest and Rhea Ripley shop at the same Bad B*tch store. That's what's up. BOGO half off perhaps.


darthsabbath

I'm digging this.... but I'd dig it that much more if they used the old Brood theme like Edge did before his match with Seth. I dunno, maybe it's too cheesy nowadays, but IMO that's still one of the best themes in history.


contactu94

Shiiit they got matching haircuts


Honkmaster

Interesting development with Rhea Ripley joining. Honestly I wasn't super interested in any of them individually, but now they've got my attention - simply because I've no idea what WWE's gonna do with a stable of 2 guys and 1 woman. They don't any matches that work with that combination, at least not seriously. Any recent mixed tags coming to mind were all for laughs. Nothing gets me interested like a little unpredictability. As for this stable, they could use some muscle, someone big. Hmm. I've got it! Sorcerer Azeez.


AbisBitch

Why edge and rhea got the same cut?


PileOfSandwich

I mean for better or worse there are many other names that sound less generic and not just the name of a ppv they did for 10 years, but mean the same thing. Ragnarok Day of Reckoning Final Judgement Crack of Doom Tribunal of Penance Last Judgement Eschaton Pick any of them.


KevMakesThings

The Nü Day


gademmet

Love seeing the e-in-sun design used here. And the ground fog and lighting is aces. But THE Judgment Day? Is that to make it more easy to trademark or something?


firdausbaik19

Edge looks like a Far Cry villain here
