Rhea Ripley made it clear that she made a man out of Dominik Mysterio as he’s finally joined The Judgment Day, and he’s set for a huge match next week!
The Labor Day edition of Monday Night Raw opened with an incensed Edge taking to the microphone to call out Dominik Mysterio for his actions at Clash at the Castle. During the Premium Live Event, Dominik helped his father and the Rated R Superstar secure a victory over The Judgment Day – only to snap after the match and deliver a low blow to Edge before clotheslining his father, seemingly because he was angry that Rey overlooked him as his tag team partner.
Edge said that he’s always considered Dominik Mysterio to be like a nephew to him, but that it was clear that the young star didn’t feel the same way. He said that Dominik and his dad could hash things out however, they saw fit, but Edge wasn’t looking at Dominik as the kid he watched grow up; instead, he was looking at him like a WWE Superstar, and he said that he wanted to beat him up for what he did.

Instead of Dominik, however, Edge was met by Rey Mysterio, who pleaded with his friend as he still loves his son and wants to give him a chance to redeem himself. Edge didn’t look interested in listening to Rey’s pleas, and as they were discussing the issue, Rhea Ripley made her entrance. She said that Dominik wasn’t Rey’s baby boy anymore, because she’d made him a man.
With this, Dominik himself made his entrance, sporting a new look as he was dressed all in black and had slicked back his hair in a side part.

Aided by their new member, The Judgment Day proceeded to attack both Rey Mysterio and Edge, attacking Edge’s already injured knee with a chair. The Raw commentary team later said that he’d been taken to a hospital to be evaluated.
