The Judgment Day attempted to recruit a WWE star to kick off tonight’s Raw.
The September 12 edition of WWE Raw opened with Seth Rollins cutting a promo bragging about his win over Matt Riddle at Clash At The Castle on September 3.
This led to Riddle coming out to get his hands on his rival. However, this beatdown was interrupted by uninvited guests.
Finn Balor and Damian Priest of The Judgment Day came down to the ring and tried to recruit Matt Riddle to join their group.
Priest brought up his past with Riddle and talked about “The Original Bro” being in the same state they were of being a rising star who were stopped in their ascent.
Balor used Dominik Mysterio’s recruitment as a tool to convince Riddle as well.
Nothing seemed to work as the Raw star turned down Judgment Day and attacked both men before they could attack him.
This set up Matt Riddle vs. Finn Balor in our opening contest tonight, which was won by Balor.
