The Judgment Day is going through very choppy waters and unless they find a way to resolve the civil war in their ranks, the entire faction may very well be headed for a massive implosion, particularly with their two key members, Finn Balor and Damian Priest going for each other’s throats.
Finn Balor and Damian Priest has been divided into two different mindsets where the Prince wants to keep on attacking Seth Rollins while the incessant attacks have left Priest away from cashing in his Money in the Bank contract on quite a few occasions.
With the breach now turning into a chasm, the Judgment Day may be inclined towards getting a few changes in the box and that may come at the expense of Finn Balor for he has been acting selfishly as per the storyline. If the faction chooses to defenestrate Balor, who is up next in the hunt to join one of the most dominant wrestling stables going on in the industry right now? Here are five superstars who may be the perfect replacement for Finn Balor in the Judgment Day.
#1 Kevin Owens can replace Finn Balor in The Judgment Day
Well, a name that may surprise you for his hatred towards Dominik Mysterio has also proven to be a fine heel in his earlier days. And don’t be surprised if he chooses to defect again and join the ranks with the Judgment Day, it would be one hell of a turnaround but that move may not be appreciated by the fans.

However, when has the storylines ever abided by what the fans thought were best for business?
#2 Seth Rollins can replace Finn Balor in The Judgment Day
This is more of a story development in case of the Visionary. He is currently the WWE World Heavyweight champion and would obviously be contested by Finn Balor at all costs. If Finn wins in a match-up and clinches the title that would bring him on a warpath with Damian Priest which obviously takes Finn out of the equation. In a like for like replacement, Finn gets axed while Seth gets in.
#3 Shinsuke Nakamura
The King has been doing the ripples only to once again be played back in the mid-table and Judgment Day can make things happen for Nakamura. He is someone who is equally versatile as the heel and the face.
Shinsuke Nakamura attacking Tommaso Ciampa because he's tired of people getting involved in his matches was nice character progression.

A heel turn for Nakamura has always worked for the best while Judgment Day can actually bring someone more effective than Finn who is a lot more flexible and is far more wicked than the Demon has been.
#4 Dexter Lumis
Another name that has had a history with Rhea Ripley won’t mind joining the faction for it plays perfectly to his strengths. Someone who has made the concept of stalking his very own, Dexter Lumis can be the game-changer for Judgment Day. He can stalk people to fear while Rhea Ripley ups the mind-games. Dom Dom and Damian can take the rest of the stick on the battlefront.
#5 Bronson Reed
The towering wrestler has been playing an able heel on the sets of Raw and he would be a grand pick in the form of a destroyer if he joins the Judgment Day. He would be on a roll that would make things a lot easier for the Archer of Infamy and Dirty Dom while Rhea Ripley can continue calling the shots alongside producing the distractions.
