At WWE SummerSlam this past weekend, The Judgment Day leader Finn Balor delivered a shocking betrayal to Damian Priest. Priest was in the midst of defending his World Heavyweight Championship against Gunther when Balor made his unexpected presence felt ringside.
The Real Reason Finn Balor Betrayed Damian Priest at WWE SummerSlam
During the high-stakes match, Balor interfered by assisting Gunther, leaving Priest stunned and distracted. This unexpected support for Gunther allowed the challenger to take advantage of the situation and secure the victory, making Gunther the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
Damian Priest, who has been with The Judgment Day since its inception, became the victim of Balor’s betrayal. The two had previously been a tag team championship duo and had had a number of heated arguments over the past year. The history of tensions ultimately culminated in Balor’s shocking act of betrayal at SummerSlam.
On the latest edition of WWE Raw, Finn Balor explained his reason for betraying him at SummerSlam. Balor showed a photo of his match against Seth Rollins at SummerSlam last year. He lost that match due to interference from Damian Priest, which distracted Balor and led to his defeat.
