Judgment Day members, Finn Balor and Damian Priest, entered WrestleMania XL as the Undisputed Tag Team Champions but left without the belts at the PLE event. Balor, in addition to losing the championship, also suffered an injury during the match, which he shared on his social media profile.
The duo defended their Tag Team Title in a highly intense Six-pack Ladder Match, leading to the belts being split after May 2022. Grayson Waller and Austin Theory claimed the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Title, while The Awesome Truth emerged as the WWE RAW Tag Team Champions. The match showcased daring moves off ladders and onto tables, testing all six teams to their limits.

Finn Balor took to Instagram to reveal a minor injury sustained during WrestleMania, comparing it to his past need for 14 staples after a match against Edge. His recent injury, a small cut on his elbow, added to a swollen forehead from a prior live event and the loss of the tag team title, leaving the Judgment Day member understandably disappointed.
Having previously won the WWE Undisputed Tag Team Title twice, Finn Balor and Damian Priest’s first victory was against Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens at Payback. Although they briefly lost the title to Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso at Fastlane, they quickly regained the belts on WWE RAW. The rollercoaster of victories and setbacks marked their journey in the tag team division.
WrestleMania XL delivered high-octane action and unexpected outcomes, reshuffling the terrain of the WWE Tag Team Championships. Balor’s injury and the title loss added layers of drama to the already exhilarating event, setting the stage for new rivalries and challenges in the wrestling world.
