Finn Blor getting kicked out of The Judgment Day on WWE Raw may have shocked viewers but a new backstage report says the storyline has actually been in the works for almost a year. According to Dave Meltzer in the March 13, 2026 edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE originally planned to split Blor and Dominik Mysterio much earlier. The idea was reportedly discussed as far back as the lead-up to SummerSlam 2025 before creative decided to hold off because the faction was still popular on television. Meltzer noted that the attack on Blor during the March 9 episode of Raw was designed to officially position him as a babyface after the betrayal. The report states that WWE originally planned a one-on-one match between Blor and Dominik for SummerSlam 2025. However, those plans were shelved after WWE felt the Judgment Day storyline still had momentum and shouldnt be broken up yet. Instead of rushing the breakup, WWE reportedly chose to keep the faction together through the rest of 2025 and into the WrestleMania 42 season before finally pulling the trigger on the betrayal. The report also revealed another detail about the original SummerSlam plan. WWE had reportedly considered bringing back Blors Demon persona for the match against Dominik. The long-delayed storyline finally took place on the March 9, 2026 episode of Raw in Seattle, when Dominik confronted Blor after tensions within the group boiled over. The situation escalated quickly as Judgment Day turned on their longtime leader, leaving Blor laid out after Dominik smashed him with a hammer and delivered a 6-1-9. Dominik later addressed the moment during a March 12 interview with Brad Gilmore, saying the group had reached a breaking point after months of internal issues. Now that Blor has been removed from Judgment Day and positioned as a babyface, the long-planned feud between him and Dominik Mysterio appears to be moving forward nearly a year after WWE first considered it. With WrestleMania 42 approaching, the delayed storyline could now become one of the biggest personal rivalries on the card if WWE finally brings Blor vs Dominik to the ring.
