Jey replied, “GahDam YEEET!!! -jey”

WWE has yet to confirm the match for Friday’s show.

On a recent edition of WWE’s “The Bump,” Damian Priest reflected on The Judgment Day losing the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships to Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso at WWE Fastlane 2023.

You can check out some highlights from the interview below:

On the Rhodes and Uso having so much coheson already: “I wouldn’t say I’m surprised, but I was surprised by the ending of it. We know the type of athletes they are. They’re top of the game. They’re the top of the mountain here in the WWE. Those are two of the guys that everybody looks at as leaders, so we knew what we were in for. Just again, we were caught by surprise with a few situations and unfortunately, it happened the way it did. Them working together, maybe they worked a little bit better than we thought, but we won’t make that mistake again.”

As Priest alluded to, The Judgment Day will have a chance to reclaim the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships on next week’s episode of “Raw.” This rematch comes after Rhodes and Uso successfully defended the tag titles against Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens on this past Monday on “Raw.”

On what they need to do differently in the rematch: “It’s one of those things that if we can eliminate some of those mistakes, specifically one in the form of a non-member of the Judgment Day, JD [McDonagh], if he just does what he’s told and stays out of my business, I think we’re good.”
